Associate Software Engineer

Are you ready to shape the future of data?

Matillion is the company behind Maia, the AI Data Automation platform.

In the AI economy, demand for data is exploding. Manual data engineering can’t keep up. Maia fixes that by combining 15 years of data expertise with agentic AI to eliminate the manual work that slows data teams down. Organisations like Cisco, DocuSign, and Slack are already using it to deliver real business impact, faster.

We started in Manchester and now we’re global - with teams across the UK, US and India.

We are driven, curious, energetic people who move fast, think big and hold ourselves to a high standard. We’re here to make a dent in the universe bigger than ourselves. And we’re looking for people who want to be part of it.

We have a fantastic new opportunity for an Associate Software Engineer to join the team. This is not a role where you will sit in the background waiting for permission to contribute. From day one you will be writing real code, solving real problems, and working alongside engineers who challenge each other to be better every day.

If you are at the start of your engineering career and want to work somewhere that moves fast, builds boldly, and takes AI seriously — this is your role.

Here is what to expect:

Stage 1 — Screening
A short 20-minute AI-powered conversation you can complete on your own schedule. It’s an opportunity to share more about yourself beyond your CV to help us understand how you can add value - your approach to problems, and your interest in the role. It's also an opportunity to learn more about Matillion and the role. A human recruiter reviews every response — AI does not make hiring decisions here. If you’d prefer not to complete the AI interview, let us know and we’ll arrange a time for a recruiter to call you.

Stage 2 — Technical Test
A practical exercise designed to assess how you think and how you build. You are encouraged to use AI tools — we want to see how you use them. We will tell you exactly what to expect in advance.

Stage 3 — Team Interview
A conversation with your future manager and a member of the engineering team. We will go deeper on your technical thinking, how you approach problems, and how you work with others. We'll also explore how you’ll positively contribute towards our culture and values. This is opportunity for you to meet the team and understand the day in the life of a Matillion Engineer.

Stage 4 — Offer
A transparent breakdown of salary, equity, and benefits — everything you need to make the right decision.

We aim to move quickly. You will hear from us within 7 days of your application.
