About Sequence

Backed by a16z and Salesforce Ventures, Sequence is reinventing the accounts receivable category, building a flexible toolkit to help B2B finance teams to scale their revenue collection infrastructure.

The team behind Sequence has decades of experience building and operating category-defining marketplace, machine learning, fintech, and enterprise software companies. We are no ordinary start-up; the maturity of our leadership and technology means we are operating at a lightning fast pace. This is a fantastic opportunity to be a part of the next wave of innovation for the CFO office, doing your best work with talented, ambitious and creative teammates.

Sequence is the ultimate billing and revenue stack for B2B companies. We help our customers design and iterate on their pricing and revenue flows, so they can stay completely focused on their mission without worrying about billing.

At the end of your career, we want you to look back at your time with Sequence and say it was the best job you ever had.


The role

We’re looking for senior product engineers with strong frontend skills to help us build financial tools for modern, fast scaling technology companies.


What you'll do:

  • Create a world class product experience. You'll help make the experience of implementing and working with the Sequence product second to none. Information on pricing, billing and revenue can be tricky to understand. You'll help us figure this out for our customers, presenting complex financial data in an approachable and intuitive way
  • Guide product direction: We believe that all engineering decisions are product decisions, and vice versa. You'll collaborate with data, product and design to choose what we work on and why, and help build Sequence to be the best product and business it can be
  • Shape our frontend architecture. You'll work on some of our most complex technical problems and help others do the same. You'll help choose how we build things and what we prioritise as a product and engineering team.
  • Help our small team have outsized impact. We want to build an early engineering culture that values collaboration, learning and teamwork. You'll play an integral role in shaping our product, culture and ways of working to help us achieve this.


This is a great fit if you...

  • ✅ Enjoy being hands-on with a focus on writing code and shipping things. We have a long list of things we want to build.
  • ✅ Are happy working day-to-day in a React/Typescript environment, and you're keen to bring your experience to help us build better.
  • ✅ Want to work as part of a small, multi-disciplinary team and collaborate closely with others.
  • ✅ Want to work on something new. The biggest product and company decisions still lie ahead of us.
  • ✅ Enjoy the uncertainty and unpredictability that comes with an early stage company.
  • ✅ Are happy to learn deeply about our customers, the problems they face, and work with them to figure out solutions


This might not be the right role if you…

  •  Enjoy larger organisation structures and only staying within your area of expertise. We’re a small team early on the journey and things change quickly as we learn more
  •  Want a traditional engineering team set up, with a predictable roadmap, clearly scoped out tickets provided for you, and so on
  •  Prefer a slower pace. We're tackling real problems for our customers today, so we need to move quickly.
  •  Want all of the benefits that come with an larger, established tech company


What we offer:

The salary range for this role is £75,000 - £110,000 + share options

We're fully remote within +/- 3 hours of GMT, or you can work from our Hub in central London— whatever you prefer.


Our hiring process:

The hiring process follows the same general outline for all engineering roles:

1️⃣ First interview (30 mins): a chance to find out more about Sequence, and for us to find out more about you and what you're looking for.

2️⃣ Technical Interview (90 mins): a live coding exercise with two of our Product Engineers. You'll provided with some code (in a language of your choice) and work with the engineers on the call to improve it, solve problems, write tests etc.

3️⃣ Product interview (45 mins): focused on how you approach customer problems, own the solutions, and apply a product mindset

4️⃣ CEO interview (30 mins): a chance to discuss the business vision with our co-founder and CEO

AI Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Changing career into artificial intelligence in your 30s, 40s or 50s is no longer unusual in the UK. It is happening quietly every day across fintech, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, government & professional services. But it is also surrounded by hype, fear & misinformation. This article is a realistic, UK-specific guide for career switchers who want the truth about AI jobs: what roles genuinely exist, what skills employers actually hire for, how long retraining really takes & whether age is a barrier (spoiler: not in the way people think). If you are considering a move into AI but want facts rather than Silicon Valley fantasy, this is for you.

How to Write an AI Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Artificial intelligence is now embedded across almost every sector of the UK economy. From fintech and healthcare to retail, defence and climate tech, organisations are competing for AI talent at an unprecedented pace. Yet despite the volume of AI job adverts online, many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Roles are flooded with unsuitable applications, while highly capable AI professionals scroll past adverts that feel vague, inflated or disconnected from reality. In most cases, the issue isn’t a shortage of AI talent — it’s the quality of the job advert. Writing an effective AI job ad requires more care than traditional tech hiring. AI professionals are analytical, sceptical of hype and highly selective about where they apply. A poorly written advert doesn’t just fail to convert — it actively damages your credibility. This guide explains how to write an AI job ad that attracts the right people, filters out mismatches and positions your organisation as a serious employer in the AI space.

Maths for AI Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are a software engineer, data scientist or analyst looking to move into AI or you are a UK undergraduate or postgraduate in computer science, maths, engineering or a related subject applying for AI roles, the maths can feel like the biggest barrier. Job descriptions say “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals” but rarely spell out what that means day to day. The good news is you do not need a full maths degree worth of theory to start applying. For most UK roles like Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer, Data Scientist, Applied Scientist, NLP Engineer or Computer Vision Engineer, the maths you actually use again & again is concentrated in a handful of topics: Linear algebra essentials Probability & statistics for uncertainty & evaluation Calculus essentials for gradients & backprop Optimisation basics for training & tuning A small amount of discrete maths for practical reasoning This guide turns vague requirements into a clear checklist, a 6-week learning plan & portfolio projects that prove you can translate maths into working code.
