Product Engineers – Java Spring Boot and Full Stack Opportunities in Belfast

At Allstate, great things happen when our people work together to protect families and their belongings from life’s uncertainties. For more than 90 years, our innovative drive has kept us a step ahead of our customers’ evolving needs.

Your role in the team

At Allstate, we’re building something different, and we’re doing it at extraordinary scale. As Allstate’s European Digital Centre of Excellence, we’re not just adopting modern engineering practices; we’re defining them. We’ve transformed into an AI first, cloud native, product driven organisation where digital product engineering powers how we deliver protection to millions of customers.

We’re engineering at a scale few organisations ever reach. Over the past three years, Allstate has reimagined its entire digital ecosystem - modernising our platforms, reinventing our operating model, and embedding a frontier mindset that puts customer experience at the centre of every decision. Today, we’re designing and building next generation protection products that are simpler, faster, and more connected than anything that came before. And we’re only accelerating.

As a Product Engineer, you’ll shape platforms from the ground up, work on high impact digital experiences used across the US market and help define what the future of protection feels like for customers. Joining us means stepping into a high performance culture where ownership is real, collaboration is deep, and technology is used to amplify people - not replace them. We’re a company that is curious, adaptive, responsible, and ambitious. If you want to do work that matters, visibly, tangibly, and at scale, this is the place to build the most meaningful chapter of your career.

We have multiple opportunities for experienced Product Engineer (Java Spring Boot and Full Stack) across multiple levels. As a Product Engineer you will design, build, and support high quality digital products using modern engineering practices and tools. In this role, you will partner closely with product managers and fellow engineers to deliver scalable, cloud native, user-centered solutions. You will be accountable for the success of your digital product(s), from design and implementation through production support and performance management against pre-defined key metrics.

Key responsibilities will include (but not limited to):

• Design, build, and enhance full stack software products
• Design and implement testing strategies to validate acceptance criteria
• Practice pair programming and test-driven development (TDD) as part of daily engineering work
• Establish and maintain CI/CD pipelines, supporting continuous integration, delivery, and deployment
• Collaborate with the team on system and application design, selecting the simplest and most effective technical solutions
• Participate in iteration planning, ensuring a shared understanding of backlog stories and technical requirements
• Actively engage in daily standups, cross-site collaboration, and product team ceremonies
• Contribute to and participate in retrospectives, identifying actionable improvements for the team and product
• Provide production support for software products
• Share knowledge and contribute to the growth of team and organizational engineering practices
• Collaborate with other digital product teams and clearly communicate technical designs

If you have the below and you’re ready to help build the next generation of digital protection products, we’d love to hear your story:

• A legal right to work in the UK for employment at Allstate.
• 3 + years’ development experience with Java 17+ and Spring Boot 3.x+.
• Experience with relational/NoSQL databases

• Experience building microservices and event-driven systems (Kafka preferred)
• Experience in frontend engineering – ReactJS/AngularJS/Typescript

Skills

Joining our team isn’t just a job — it’s an opportunity. One that takes your skills and pushes them to the next level. One that encourages you to challenge the status quo. One where you can shape the future of protection while supporting causes that mean the most to you. Joining our team means being part of something bigger – a winning team making a meaningful impact.
