ABOUT TRINT

Trint is the market leading AI-powered transcription and content creation platform for enterprise media — built specifically for newsrooms, broadcasters, sports organisations and businesses.

Trint transforms audio and video into publishable content — with live transcription in seconds, 70+ language translation, speaker recognition, and AI-generated first drafts. Trusted by newsrooms like AP, The New York Times, and Sky, Trint’s software is designed for speed, editorial integrity, and secure professional workflows.

We're a global business with offices in London and Toronto, and a team that passionately cares about our product, about each other, and about the people who rely on Trint every day. Diversity and inclusion aren't an afterthought here; they're part of how we work and who we are.

Trint was founded by an Emmy-winning journalist and war correspondent who brings unique domain expertise and a passion for innovating solutions.

This is an exciting moment to join. We're scaling with purpose, and we're building the team and the infrastructure to do it properly.

THE POSITION

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our team. Someone who's comfortable across the full stack, thinks with a DevOps mindset, and has a genuine hunger for infrastructure work.

You'll be part of a small team where your voice matters. Technical decisions here aren't handed down - they're made by the people doing the work. If you've been waiting for the chance to have real influence on architecture and direction, this is that opportunity.

The immediate challenge: We're reshaping our media pipeline to handle significantly increased volume projected for 2026. You'll be central to that work, designing, building, and scaling the systems that process media for some of the world's largest news organisations.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

You'll work across our stack, but leaning towards infrastructure. You'll write code, review code, pair with colleagues, and ship to production regularly. You'll help us make the architectural decisions that will define how Trint scales. You'll own problems end-to-end - from understanding what needs to be built, to getting it into the hands of customers, to making sure it stays running.

Our stack: AWS, MongoDB, GraphQL, React, TypeScript, Python, Terraform. We have strong DORA metrics, we pair program, we deliver value in small increments and observe change. The tooling and process exist to help us move faster, we use them, we own them, they don’t own us. 

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Location: London (Hybrid: 1-2 days in office)

You have:

  • Core stack experience: React, MongoDB, and GraphQL
  • Python and Terraform experience is a strong bonus
  • Strong experience building and operating software in production, particularly on AWS
  • A solid grasp of infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD, and what it takes to keep systems reliable
  • The ability to work across the stack, you’ve got a preference for sure, but you’re comfortable with both frontend and backend
  • Experience with the realities of scaling systems: what breaks, why, and how to design around it
  • Nice to have: mobile development experience — Flutter, native iOS (Swift), or Android. Not required, but a genuine plus if you've got it.

You are:

  • Someone who takes ownership, you don't wait to be told what to do
  • Pragmatic about trade-offs and able to articulate them to others
  • Genuinely interested in how things work underneath
  • A good colleague - you communicate clearly, you help others, you assume good intent

We're also open to: Engineers currently at mid-level who are ready to step up. If you've got the capability but haven't had the opportunity but you believe you operate at a senior level - perhaps due to the structure of your current role - we'd like to hear from you.

WHAT WE OFFER

You'll work on systems that matter, with people who care, in a company small enough that you can see your impact. You'll have the autonomy that comes with trust, and the support that comes with being part of a team.

We're not big on hierarchy for its own sake, we're structured enough to be supportive, flat enough to be effective and human.

We also provide a Claude (Anthropic) Team subscription, so you've got great AI tooling built into how you work from day one

OUR VALUES

Take risks. We focus on progress, not perfection. We make informed decisions and course-correct when needed.

Have impact. We deliver in days and weeks, not months. We're obsessed with making a difference to our customers.

Do the right thing. We communicate honestly. We take responsibility - even when no one is watching.

Win together. It's about we, not me.
