This is a predominantly remote role. Minimal in-office working time may be required when our offices re-open. 

At AlphaSights, we search through more than 500 million professionals working in the world today to find the small handful of experts qualified to answer our clients' needs. They use these insights to drive amazing progress within their organizations. Our mission is to provide access to dispersed, hidden, and underutilized knowledge. We’ve made terrific progress working in this new space, but we’ve only just scratched the surface on how we can apply technology to this problem.

As a Front End Engineer on our Search & Discovery team, you will enable the next generation of our discovery experience by building ambitious web applications, on the edge of what is possible with today's browsers. You'll work closely with a variety of people in the business to arrive at the best solution, immediately see the impact of your work, and get feedback directly from users. We're looking for people who are interested in building software systems to an incredibly high standard, comfortable working across multiple languages, and learning new technologies as needed.

You will:

• Push the boundaries of modern front end engineering to build elegant, intuitive and optimized web applications
• Work closely with our Product Team and Design Team to identify, design and build features that have a significant business impact
• Work in small, nimble teams and form part of a highly talented guild that determines front end direction and best practices.

You might:

• Build UIs to schedule multi-party communication with heavy constraints
• Develop innovative interfaces that enable intuitive discovery and exploration of structured knowledge 
• Launch new product initiatives that delight our clients and differentiate our services

You might be a fit if you:

• Have at least 5 years of industry experience
• Are passionate about delivering high performance solutions
• Have a solid understanding of JavaScript fundamentals and also understand the complexities of the DOM and CSS, especially how they interact
• Know and understand the implications of the latest developments in ECMAScript
• Navigate and write backend code where necessary
• React experience a plus

We believe a broad spectrum of experience provides a great perspective on solving problems in new and innovative ways. If your background doesn't check all the boxes above, but you are passionate about front end engineering, we’d still love to hear from you.

Who you would work with:

• You would join a dynamic, multinational, and diverse team who enjoy solving interesting problems in a collaborative and distributed environment
• We have self-taught engineers as well as graduates from top Computer Science and Engineering schools
• Your co-workers will include motivated recent graduates as well as experienced industry leaders from companies such as Google and Amazon
