Job description

Surevine’s mission is to build and deliver secure, scalable, collaboration solutions for the most security conscious organisations, enabling collaboration on their most highly sensitive information.

Surevine offer our people a platform for you to transform your individual talents into strengths within a creative, innovation-driven environment.

We hire software engineers who are adaptable, curious, and committed to creating excellent engineering solutions through both independent work and collaboration.

Engineering in Surevine

You will get exposure to engineering techniques across the software lifecycle; cloud engineering, test-driven development, AI-assisted development, experimentation, prototyping and automation. We aren't in the habit of hiring engineering zealots or rigid process followers but instead try to find highly adaptable people who can thoughtfully evaluate context and apply appropriate tools and approaches to the job at hand.

We are actively using AI tools to accelerate our development, improve code quality and solve complex problems. We will want you to use these tools effectively, while maintaining strong engineering fundamentals and critical thinking about AI-generated outputs.

We want you to have (or be looking to learn) an understanding of the impact of engineering decisions on security posture. Critically, we want you to be honest about what you know and what you don’t know and know how to work with your “don’t know”.

We are a distributed company and always have been, so you'll need to communicate effectively using our online tools and collaborate with team members through various channels (video calls, chat, async documentation, etc.), whether working in-person or remotely. We value clear communication and welcome different communication styles and preferences.

We make our solutions by looking at the problem from all angles, but we don’t sit around staring at a problem. Sometimes the only way to learn is to build an MVP and put it in the hands of a real person.

And engineering in Surevine right now means being comfortable with AI-augmented development workflows and leveraging ground-breaking tools to amplify your capabilities.

The tools we use

We hire people who can adapt to technology demands. We don’t expect you to have experience with all the technologies that we use; we hire people who can adapt quickly and are open-minded to using the best technology to solve problems.

• Typescript, React, Next.js
• Python, Langchain, AI/ML integration
• Java, Spring Frameworks
• Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor or other LLM-powered development assistants

What you will be doing

We recognise that engineers have different working styles and strengths. Below are the key aspects of the role - we'll work with you to find approaches that play to your strengths while achieving our shared goals.

• Architect, design, and develop reliable and secure software systems, leveraging AI tools to enhance productivity and code quality
• Collaborate effectively with team members; contribute to team working practices through clear documentation, knowledge sharing, code reviews, and helping improve the organisation's software engineering practices and processes
• Consider the user at every step of the delivery process; from understanding the need to designing and delivering the solution
• Take ownership, with the team, of software systems from conception and development, through live operation and decommissioning
• Experiment with and evaluate new AI-powered development tools and practices, sharing learnings with the team
• Continually evaluate and improve how the team delivers
• Continuously develop your skills through learning opportunities we provide, including time for experimentation, structured learning, and mentorship. We encourage trying new approaches while also valuing depth and mastery.
• Engaged in support and mentoring within the development team as required

About you

We value diverse thinking styles and backgrounds. You don’t need to match every point below perfectly - we're interested in your overall fit and potential.

• Strong software engineering fundamentals with experience of delivering production systems
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP preferred) and containerization
• Open to learning about and adopting AI-augmented development tools that enhance productivity (we provide training and support for these tools)
• Security-conscious mindset with understanding of secure coding practices
• Able to communicate effectively in a remote environment through written and verbal channels. We accommodate different communication preferences and styles, and value clarity over any particular communication approach.

Working at Surevine

We're committed to building an inclusive environment where diverse perspectives and working styles strengthen our team. We:

• Provide reasonable accommodations throughout the application and employment process
• Support different communication and collaboration preferences
• Offer flexible working arrangements
• Value both collaborative work and focused individual contribution time
• Provide clear expectations, structured onboarding, and ongoing mentorship

If you need any accommodations during the application process or have questions about how we work, please let us know.
