Why this is an exciting time to join

This is not just another tech job, it’s a chance to shape the direction of the due diligence industry with our market-leading product. Whether you’re in engineering, data science, product, AI/ML or infrastructure, you’ll be solving hard, high-impact problems: scaling distributed systems to fuel explosive growth, making sense of multilingual and unstructured data, applying AI/ML to real-world risk, and delivering insights that organisations can trust in high-stakes environments.

We’re scaling fast with more customers, more releases, bigger regulatory challenges and a growing expectation that “due diligence” means not only real-time insight, but conducted at pace and cost-efficiency. You won’t just be shipping features, you’ll be shaping architecture, tooling, models, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
