Software Engineer - Product Team in London

Location: London (Hybrid – 2 days per week in our Spitalfields office)

About Trint

Trint turns audio and video into searchable, editable text. Our customers - major broadcasters, news agencies, and media organisations - depend on us when stories are breaking and speed matters. We’re a team of around 40 people building technology that sits at the heart of how stories get told. We’ve been "human in the loop" AI since before it was a buzzword. We take security seriously because our customers have to, and we ship small changes frequently because that’s how you build something people can depend on.

The role

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join our team. Someone who’s comfortable across the full stack and has a genuine hunger for innovations in everyday work. You’ll be part of a small team where your voice matters. Technical decisions here aren’t handed down - they’re made by the people doing the work. If you’ve been waiting for the chance to have real influence on architecture and direction, this is that opportunity.

The immediate challenge: We’re building a First Draft solution for news journalists fully based on AI Agents. You’ll be central to that work, designing, building, and scaling the systems that process media for some of the world’s largest news organisations.

What you’ll do

• You’ll work across our stack – backend, frontend and devops.
• You’ll write code, review code, pair with colleagues, and ship to production regularly.
• You’ll help us make the architectural decisions that will define how Trint scales.
• You’ll own problems end‑to‑end – from understanding what needs to be built, to getting it into the hands of customers, to making sure it stays running.

Our stack: AWS, MongoDB, GraphQL, React, TypeScript, Python, Terraform. We have strong DORA metrics, we pair program, we deliver value in small increments and observe change. The tooling and process exist to help us move faster. We use them, we own them, they don’t own us.

What we’re looking for

• Strong experience building and operating software in production, particularly on AWS.
• A solid grasp of infrastructure‑as‑code, CI/CD, and what it takes to keep systems reliable.
• The ability to work across the stack, you’ve got a preference for sure, but you’re comfortable with both frontend and backend.
• Experience with the realities of scaling systems: what breaks, why, and how to design around it.

You are:

• Someone who takes ownership, you don’t wait to be told what to do.
• Pragmatic about trade‑offs and able to articulate them to others.
• Genuinely interested in how things work underneath.
• A good colleague – you communicate clearly, you help others, you assume good intent.

What we offer

You’ll work on systems that matter, with people who care, in a company small enough that you can see your impact. You’ll have the autonomy that comes with trust, and the support that comes with being part of a team. We’re not big on hierarchy for its own sake, we’re structured enough to be supportive, flat enough to be effective and human.

Our values

• Take risks. We focus on progress, not perfection. We make informed decisions and course‑correct when needed.
• Have impact. We deliver in days and weeks, not months. We’re obsessed with making a difference to our customers.
• Do the right thing. We communicate honestly. We take responsibility – even when no one is watching.
