Hi, I’m Sina, CTO at Nous. I’ve spent my entire career in startups, starting my first company when I was a teenager, and navigated many 0→1 journeys. A pattern throughout my life is that I love finding and solving complexity that wastes people’s time or money. Nous aims to do exactly that.
Roughly 90% of UK households are overpaying on their bills. Nous is an agent to absorb complexity out of households, saving them money and time. Our mission is to make people’s lives simpler and fairer, starting with the 30 million households here in the UK, and soon far beyond. Nous is growing fast, it’s working. 20x YoY growth makes us one of the fastest scaling startups in the UK. NPS of +70 shows that users love it.
We’ve launched two novel new products: Insurance and Subscription management. We’re the first to get the regulatory approval and build the tech to actually do the full insurance discovery and purchase journey as an agent for the user. We actively save people money by cancelling unwanted subscriptions for them.
The role requires building a world-class product that will be used regularly by millions of people. As a product engineer, you’ll be a hands-on technical leader on some of the highest-leverage areas of our codebase, from building out agentic capabilities to scaling our service logic.
Some examples of past achievements include:
- Leading and shipping an entire product line around open banking and subscription management.
- Ed led the latest Blueprint architecture, which now powers every service line.
- Tim led and shipped our car insurance product line in less than 3 months.
We help manage six areas of household spending: Energy, Mobile, Broadband, Mortgage, Personal finances, and Insurance. Behind the scenes, we’ve built the technology that acts as rails for us to quickly expand on the breadth and depth of our service lines.
You’ll report directly to the CTO and work closely on key architectural and product decisions. We organise around small product squads with a single shared objective; and ship and learn fast.
What we look for:
- You own problems end to end.
- You think like a PM as much as an engineer.
- You’re a pragmatic builder.
- You build leverage for other people.
- You’re here for the problem.
We hire across all levels (mid-senior, to staff+). The size and independence of your initial scope will reflect your experience, but the shape of the role is the same: you own outcomes.
What to expect:
- You’ll never be bored.
- You’ll be learning every day.
- You’ll have the space and support to grow your AI engineering skills.
- You’ll work closely with a caring and highly intelligent team.
Compelling packages, including meaningful share options with life-changing upside. An environment where you can do your best work, flexibility around remote work, and various benefits including health and dental cash plans, travel benefits, and generous paid holidays.
Nous has an office-first culture, encouraging in-person working, while recognising that some types of work can sometimes be done remotely.
