Software Engineer

RealityMine has been a pioneer in delivering data driven insights to the world's largest brands for over a decade. Our platform provides unique data solutions to our clients enabling them to make strategic, informed decisions powered by data from real people, collected in a privacy safe way.

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to help build and evolve the tooling behind RealityMine’s behavioural data products.

The Role:

You’ll join a brand-new team focused on building AI‑enhanced products that transform how we work. You’ll have real impact from day one: shaping the vision, choosing the tools, and shipping features that our teams rely on every day. This is a chance to help define the architecture, the standards, and the culture of a new area, while working closely with engineers, product and stakeholders to turn ambitious ideas into production-ready software.

Our offices are in Trafford Park, Manchester and the role consists of hybrid working, where we ask for our team to be in the office for collaboration and team building a minimum of 2 days per week. The rest of the week is up to you; deep focus at home, or more of the same!

Key Responsibilities:

· Design, build and maintain AI‑enhanced services and user-facing features, from idea to production.

· Work closely with engineers, product and stakeholders to understand problems and shape pragmatic, high‑impact solutions.

· Integrate and experiment with AI capabilities (e.g. agentic coding, smart workflows, summarisation) and iterate based on real user feedback.

· Own the quality of what you ship: testing, observability, performance and reliability.

· Contribute to the architecture, standards and ways of working of this new team, helping to set the technical and engineering culture.

· Adhering to Company Policies and Procedures with respect to Security, Quality and Health & Safety.

About You:

You’re a product-minded engineer who enjoys building reliable, impactful software that people love to use. You’re comfortable across the stack, write clean, well-tested code, and can move fast without creating chaos. You’re genuinely curious about how AI can amplify what teams can do, and you like to experiment, ship small, learn, and iterate. You communicate clearly, enjoy collaborating across disciplines, and take real ownership from first idea through to launch and beyond.

You must have:

· Software Engineering experience with an OOP language (Python, Java, C# etc)

· Experience working with relational databases (Postgres, MySQL)

· Excellent communication skills as you will be collaborating with various cross-team stakeholders within the company.

· Capability to gather requirements and engage regularly with stakeholders to translate business needs into successful, technical solutions.

· Interest and awareness of current trends and developments in AI tools

Nice to have but not essential:

· Experience designing, building and optimising AI Agents

· Exposure/experience with Cloud Vendor (AWS, Azure) products

· Experience developing internal tooling and taking ownership of technical solution and delivery
