The posting

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 can’t 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 we’re 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. We’re here to make a dent in the universe bigger than ourselves. And we’re looking for people who want to be part of it.

Software Engineering Industrial Placement | July 2027 - August 2028

We are looking for second-year university students who want a placement year working on real engineering problems. You will join an engineering team that builds AI data products used by customers around the world. You won’t be on the sidelines. You’ll own real work from your first few weeks, with a mentor and a team that reviews what you build.

If you are looking to experience what it's like to be a software engineer in an ambitious, AI product first tech company, and want to work somewhere that moves fast, builds boldly, and takes AI seriously — this is your role.

What you'll be doing

  • Writing clean, tested code that ships to real customers.
  • Working in an agile engineering team — sprints, standups, code reviews, and real delivery.
  • Solving technical problems that directly impact our customers' ability to work with data.
  • Using AI tools actively in your day to day — to research, to build, to move faster.
  • Learning from engineers around you and contributing your own perspective from day one.
  • Presenting what you have built to the wider team before you finish.

What we're looking for

  • You are currently studying for a degree in computer science, software engineering or a related subject, with a placement year before you return to finish your studies. You’re also on track for a 2:1 or above.
  • You have written code in at least one language, through coursework, a personal project or a hackathon. Any language is fine. Java is a bonus.
  • You are curious about AI and how it is changing engineering.
  • You ask good questions when the answer isn't obvious.
  • You want to learn fast and are happy to give and receive honest feedback.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
