The role
As a Product-Minded Software Engineer III, you will be responsible for incrementally shipping value to customers, orchestrating AI agents to research, plan, and implement changes to our products while iterating with the wider team to leverage these tools to increase velocity and quality. This role reports to an Engineering Manager and sits within a product team of 8-10, who believe in pioneering AI engineering workflows and transforming team practices through agentic collaboration.
This is a hybrid role requiring regular in-person team meetings at our Brighton office, typically held on the last Thursday of each month for team connection.
Responsibilities
* AI-Native Development: Use agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor) to research, plan, architect, and implement product changes quickly and with high quality, by guiding agents through complex tasks and validating against engineering standards.
* Break Down and Ship Value: Decompose product ideas into small, shippable increments of customer value, prioritising working software over speculative design and releasing frequently with measurable outcomes.
* Write Code Across the Stack: Write and review code across Go, Java (Spring), and/or Node.js, using AI tooling to bridge syntax gaps rapidly without compromising correctness.
* Lock In Behaviour: Define and implement tests in business-readable language that lock in behaviour, not implementation detail, ensuring confidence in what you ship.
* Establish Your Workflow: Establish and document a personal AI-native development workflow, drawing on existing repository patterns and proposing improvements to the broader developer experience.
What we're looking for
We care more about how you think than what's on your CV. If you meet most of the essentials and are excited about the problem, apply.
Essential
* Product mindset: You can take an idea and break it down into small iterations of value
* Outcome driven: You’re focused on delivering value to customers in terms they understand
* AI-Native / Agentic Workflow: You have used tools like Claude Code or Cursor to plan, architect, and code, and can explain how you steer agents to achieve complex goals.
* Golang / Java/NodeJS - Polyglot Mindset: You possess a solid understanding of Go, Java (incl Spring) or NodeJS to verify code, while using AI to bridge syntax gaps rapidly.
* Testing & Quality Assurance: You can articulate tests in business language, even when code is generated by AI.
Nice to have
* Scaling Experience: You have worked with asynchronous distributed systems
* Mentorship Track Record: You have experience sharing knowledge and upskilling teams on new technologies or methodologies.
* Behavioural testing mindset: You think in terms of locking in behaviour, not implementation
What to expect from the process
* Screen & Intro: 30-minute video call with the Talent Team to discuss the role and your experience with AI agents.
* HM Interview: 45-60 minute video call with the Engineering Manager and Head of Engineering to delve into workflow, mindset, and AI tool usage.
* The "Agent" Test: A live technical task where you’ll use Claude Code (or your preferred agent) to solve a complex requirement or refactor code.
* Final Stage: 45-60 minute interview with the broader team and People Team to assess collaboration and "Learning in the open."
We design this to be a two-way conversation. Come with questions — we want you to leave knowing whether this is the right move for you.
We also use AI tools to support our hiring process — not to make decisions, but to help us run a fairer, faster process. You can read more about how we approach that here, including tips for how you can use AI to prepare.
