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 there is still an incredible amount of work to do. We’ve only just scratched the surface on how we can apply technology to this problem.

As a member of 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 users, engineers, products, and designers 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:

  • Write high quality and maintainable code in both modern frontend and high-level backend technologies to meet the needs of our growing business
  • Work in a collaborative engineering team with two weeks iterations and be part of iteration planning and retros.
  • Pair with teammates, review PRs, help others with technical questions & share your learnings
  • Learn to master a specific part of the tech stack, e.g., UI/UX, microservices, etc. with the opportunity to take on technical leadership over time.
  • Work with users closely to see the impact of your work immediately.

You might be a good fit if you:

  • Are passionate about software development
  • Understand OOP best practices
  • Enjoy working through difficult technical problems and developing end-to-end solutions.
  • Enjoy collaborating and making teammates better by teaching and mentoring.
  • Have excellent communications skills.
  • Can work through somewhat ambiguous situations

Bonus points:

  • Have working experience in the software industry (0-2 years)
  • Familiar with one or multiple of the listed technologies: Kotlin, Spring, Ruby Rails, Python, React, ES6 Javascript
  • Worked with message broker technology (Rabbitmq, Zeromq)
  • Have experience with SQL database optimisation
  • Have knowledge of modern search engines (ElasticSearch, Solr)

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 software engineering, we’d still love to hear from you.
