Omnea
The Jump: Fast-Track Programme
Requirements
The role seeks an ambitious, product-minded engineer with around 3–5 years of professional software engineering experience, a record of shipping end-to-end features, and full-stack TypeScript experience; AWS serverless experience is a plus. Candidates should be proactive, coachable, curious about customers, comfortable with ambiguity, and motivated to take on greater scope and grow quickly.
Job Description
Our Mission:
Omnea is the agentic operating system for procurement.
Procurement touches every pound a business spends, yet requests still stall for weeks and approvals get lost in inboxes. Our AI-first platform changes that: our agents capture requests, route approvals, onboard suppliers, flag risk and track every renewal, while anyone in the business can ask a question and get an answer grounded in their own company’s data. Buying becomes painless for everyone, procurement gets a seat at the table, and our customers have saved more than 100,000 hours of manual work so far.
Companies like Spotify, PayPal, T. Rowe Price, JustEat, Adyen and S&P Global run procurement on Omnea. We’re backed by $75M from Khosla Ventures, Insight Partners and Accel, and we’ve been named the UK’s number one startup in the Startups 100, ranked 11th on Sifted’s 2026 list of Europe’s fastest-growing companies, and recognised as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies.
Talent density matters more to us than almost anything else. We keep the bar high in every team, so everyone here has real ownership and real impact. Our team is full of former founders and operators who’ve scaled unicorns, and we’re looking for people who want to do the best work of their careers alongside them.

The Jump:
The Jump is Omnea's 12-month programme for ambitious engineers who want to make the jump to senior, faster than they could elsewhere. You'll join one of our product teams as a Product Engineer and take on progressively bigger, harder work, with the support to grow into it.
Plenty of companies promise fast progression. We back it with structure:
Real scope. Ship from week one, own a feature end to end in your first quarter, and lead a project with one or two other engineers by months 6–9.
A buddy for the year. An experienced engineer from another team, not your manager, who meets you every month for the full 12 months and talks you through how they make decisions.
Six practical sessions in your first six months. Live, in-person sessions across two Jump Day afternoons, covering impact, autonomy, product and design, customers, commercial and influence. Each is built around a real Omnea project and applied straight to your own work. No bootcamp.
Honest feedback. A monthly self-review talked through with your buddy, and a quarterly progression review with your team lead, so you always know where you stand.
Promotion when you're ready. As soon as you're consistently operating at the next level, judged against the same bar as everyone else. Not held for an annual review.
What Success Looks Like:
We expect you to be operating at the next level within about 12 months. We'll give you the scope, the buddy and the feedback, so you can drive your progression as fast and as far as you can. We'll track your progress together through structured checkpoints across the year, so you always know where you stand.
Our bar is high. Our levels mean more here than at most companies, and promotion is judged on how you operate, not on finishing a programme.
What We're Looking For:
We're looking for product-minded engineers with real drive to join our engineering team. We're a tight-knit group of ambitious builders who hold the bar high. It took over 10,000 interviews to hire our first 50 Omneans. Over the next year, our engineering team will double in size, our enterprise customer base will grow from ~220 to 400+, and revenue will triple. In this role, you'll build high-quality product features and systems using the latest in AI, both as a developer tool and embedded directly into our product, owning meaningful problem spaces end-to-end and having a direct impact on customers as we scale.
What Can You Expect On Our Engineering Team?
Join a Skilled Team. Become part of one of Europe's fastest-growing software companies, working alongside experienced full-stack product engineers from top technology businesses and startups.
Direct Product Impact. Help shape key product decisions, including roadmap prioritisation, project scoping, technical direction, user experience, and implementation strategy.
Work with Modern Technology. Our stack is TypeScript across the stack (frontend and backend), React, Postgres, and AWS serverless infrastructure (Lambda, DynamoDB, and EventBridge), managed through Pulumi and deployed via GitHub Actions. We use Datadog for observability, Meticulous for automated visual regression testing, and Incident.io for incident management.
AI-Native Development. AI is core to how we build. Engineers use Claude Code and agentic workflows every day to write, review, and ship code faster, and our product is itself built on AI agents that automate complex procurement workflows.
End-to-End Ownership. Own projects from initial idea through design, implementation, deployment, monitoring, and iteration. You'll work across the stack and be trusted to make decisions that drive meaningful outcomes.
Continuous Delivery. We deploy small, incremental changes to production multiple times per day, enabling rapid iteration and fast customer feedback loops.
Tackle Scalability Challenges. As we grow, you'll help scale our systems, architecture, and engineering practices while maintaining performance, reliability, and developer velocity.
Collaboration and Autonomy. We operate as a high-trust team where individuals are expected to take ownership while collaborating closely to solve difficult problems.
Customers at the Center. We regularly engage directly with customers to understand their problems, gather feedback, and ensure we're building products that create genuine value.
About You:
You're a strong engineer on a fast trajectory. Around 3–5 years of professional software engineering in a well-respected engineering environment, shipping features end to end, full-stack in TypeScript (AWS serverless is a plus). If your trajectory is exceptional, we'll look past the years.
You're proactive. You spot problems and fix them, or get them to the right person, without being asked. You keep people updated rather than waiting to be chased.
You're ready for more scope. You've owned well-defined work and want the next step: vague briefs, bigger projects and more people to work with.
You're coachable. You ask for feedback, act on it and learn fast from mistakes.
You're driven and ambitious. You want to progress quickly, own your growth and push for harder problems. If there's a chance to take on something bigger, you take it.
You've got grit. You work hard and keep going when things get difficult.
You're curious about the product and the customer. You want to know why something is being built, not just how.
You lift others. You help teammates, share what you know and make the team better.
Nice-to-Haves:
You've performed exceptionally at something else, be it academics, sport, or work. You've gone above and beyond the norm.
You've grown fast before. Your scope or responsibilities grew quickly in a previous role.
You love engineering. It's more than a job. You've contributed to open source or worked on side projects just because you enjoy it. You're confident tackling ambiguous problems and shipping quality code.
Interview Process:
Before applying, we strongly encourage you to spend a few minutes in our R&D Candidate Hub. It covers our engineering culture, ways of working, interview process, tech environment, and what it's like to build at Omnea.
>> R&D Candidate Hub: R&D Candidate Hub
The process varies slightly by level but generally includes:
Initial screening call with the Talent team (30 mins - remote)
AI Product Eng Challenge - language agnostic (1 hour - remote)
Onsite interviews: Engineering culture interview, System design and Engineering leadership interviews (3 hours - in-person)
For The Jump, we look for trajectory as much as experience: how fast you've learned and how quickly your scope has grown.
We're proud to support visa sponsorship for candidates who need it.
At Omnea, we embrace diversity. To build a product that's loved by everyone, we're best served by a team with all sorts of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't quite match the full job spec! And regardless of your race, religion, colour, gender, or anything else!
