Job Description 

Technology is at the core of all our products and services. We map, capture and distribute knowledge at scale, which translates on the tech side into a wide gamut of complex problems to solve. To keep looking for better ways to fill our client's needs, we have a dedicated Innovation team spearheading new product concepts.

As a Software Engineer your role is a key enabler for the Innovation team, contributing to upcoming innovative products by translating complex business visions into first-class human interfaces.

The Innovation team covers autonomously all aspects of the product development, from ideation and business model to market launch. You will interact daily on business, product, data and development angles with the rest of the team, reporting to the Head of Innovation.

For research and validation, you will have direct access to stakeholders, internal users, clients and our industry experts.

Responsibilities

You will mostly work from a blank canvas with ownership of the technological choices and contribute to the product decisions. Expect the role to be 70% development and 30% business and product involvement.

You will aim to maximise user goals, improve the speed of concept validation, minimize development overhead and provide clear milestones.

With your help, our team's knowledge and best practices on human interfaces will be on par with industry bests; we will avoid bottlenecks around human interface development and validation and will be able to test multiple concepts in parallel, fail fast and iterate in short cycles.
