Job Summary

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 cant 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 were 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. Were here to make a dent in the universe bigger than ourselves. And were looking for people who want to be part of it.


At Matillion we are moving beyond traditional data processing to define the future of the AI Data Automation Platform. Our mission is to make data AI-ready at the speed of thought centred around Maia - our autonomous AI data engineering foundation.

As a Frontend Engineer you will build the interfaces that make that mission real using React and an agentic-first mindset - working alongside AI tools like Claude not as a shortcut but as an essential partner in how you engineer. You will own high-visibility features act as a skilled validator of AI-generated code and help set the bar for what production-ready means on our team.

This is a hybrid role based in Manchester UK with minimum 2 days a week in the office.

What you will be doing
  • Build production React and TypeScript components for Maia and Maia Teams - clean readable built for your teammates to extend.
  • Run an agentic-first workflow: use GenAI tools daily to handle the repetitive work so your time goes on architecture and hard logic.
  • Act as the human-in-the-loop - review refactor and harden AI-suggested code against our security and performance bar.
  • Break epics into shippable increments and keep a steady flow of value through CI/CD.
  • Shape front-end architecture with your squad - component patterns state management the calls that outlast a single sprint.
What we are looking for
  • Professional experience shipping production React applications with testable well-documented code.
  • Daily hands-on use of AI coding tools paired with the judgement to critically validate every output rather than trust it blind.
  • A structured systematic approach to diagnosing and fixing issues in a frontend service.
  • Strong grasp of modern web security and self-documenting code practices.
  • Comfort across the full SDLC - Agile CI/CD version control - in a live production environment.

At Matillion we are committed to providing competitive salaries in line with market standards. Our estimated compensation range for this position is 47200 to 70800 but the final salary will be based on your relevant skills experience and qualifications demonstrated in the hiring process.
