The opportunity

We have an exciting opportunity for a Software Engineer to join Attest and help us build the foundations for the next evolution of the Attest product. You’ll focus on the core engineering building blocks that enable our teams to move fast: architecture, internal APIs, data models, and reliable, scalable foundations.

Whether you come from a backend or full-stack background, what matters most is your depth in engineering fundamentals and your ability to design and build practical, robust systems in ambiguous, early-stage settings.

You’ll work in a cross-functional squad alongside Product, Design and Data Science, using a modern stack including Java, Python, Kafka, VueJS and Postgres, as well as integrations with external providers. Collaboration is key at Attest—our teams work closely with stakeholders across the business to deliver meaningful value for customers.

Salary

We are able to offer between £65–85K depending on experience.

In person and remote working balance

We embrace a flexible hybrid work model. While we don't mandate specific office days, we ask Attesters to work on-site 2 days per week. This approach allows us to collaborate in person, while ensuring enough time remotely for deep, focussed work. 

What you’ll be doing…

As a Software Engineer , you will work within a squad to create best-in-class foundations for our product. You will 

• Work effectively within today’s core frameworks and data models, contributing improvements and proactively recommending changes where different approaches would better serve scale, performance, or product needs—while maintaining overall architectural integrity.

What you’ll bring…

As a Software Engineer, you will 

• Come from either a backend or full-stack background and want to deepen your impact on core engineering foundations.

• You will have worked with Java

• Be energised by and have experience of working in start ups or scale ups where you have solved early-stage challenges and built practical solutions that unlock speed at scale.

We want to give everyone the opportunity to showcase their best selves during the interview process and beyond. Do let us know if there are any adjustments you’d like to make to ensure it’s more inclusive – we’re learning too, so we’re more than happy to adapt and accommodate where possible.
