Frontend at Tessian Read more about Engineering at Tessian: https://stackoverflow.com/jobs/companies/tessian
At Tessian, our mission is to keep the world’s most sensitive data and systems private and secure. Our platform uses machine intelligence to understand human communication at scale, allowing us to protect some of the world’s largest organisations from threats executable by humans.
From a Frontend perspective, we have two main challenges at Tessian: concisely communicating security insights from millions of data points back to our clients through analytics and dashboards, and ensuring all our users find our portal easy to use, despite its industry-leading level of sophistication and flexibility.
We are building a Design System and component library using a modern stack consisting of TypeScript, React, Emotion and Styled System.
As a Frontend Engineer, you will play an integral part helping us to finish the migration and achieve consistency, great user experience and great developer experience. We use mainly TypeScript and React, so, preferably, you should be comfortable with those, but that is not an absolute requirement if you have experience with JavaScript and another Frontend framework. If you're also able to use a little Python to plug our frontend into our backend that's a plus!
You'll have 3+ years of experience working in frontend development and be able to work to a high technical standard. More junior than this? Check out our non-Senior frontend role instead. We'd love to meet someone who:
- Is a great problem solver who takes pride in their work
- Has good knowledge of Javascript, and a frontend framework
- Enjoys the challenge of working with and presenting summaries of large datasets
- Has passion for learning new skills and technologies
- Has ideally worked on large, complex Enterprise dashboards before
- Is ideally equally comfortable working on frontend and backend tasks
Tech Stack:
- TypeScript / JavaScript
- React
- Css-in-JS / Emotion / Styled-System
- Python 3
- Docker / CI Pipelines
- AWS

We'd love to meet someone who:
- Has 6+ years Data Science experience
- Has strong NLP experience (in production)
- Has worked with, or understands the principles behind working with data at scale
- Can balance longer term projects alongside impactful quick wins
- Cares deeply about the impact their team hasIs a creative at heart, and can encourage novel ways of thinking in their team. This has always been a core part of the data science team’s DNA

Product at Tessian
Having found exceptional product/market fit for our category-defining Human Layer Security software platform, we’re in the midst of transitioning from 'start-up' to ‘scale-up’, and are looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our team.
Product Designers at Tessian work closely with our autonomous, cross-functional engineering teams to deliver amazing experiences for our customers. As part of the Product team, Product Designers work flexibly and are able to utilise UX, UI and Product skill sets.
We’re not a typical cybersecurity company, and we need someone who can communicate this through impactful UI and UX design. Our main design challenge is creating analytics dashboards and visualisations to communicate trends detected by Tessian in massive email datasets. You might also work on rethinking complex workflows, or designing friendly interactions for our end-users.
The new senior product designer will have significant impact in defining the design process at Tessian. We value collaborative design, and use Figma for UX/UI work. We’re looking for someone hands-on that values the impact design can have over perfection.
We’re open to a variety of experience levels and would love to meet someone with startup or b2b SaaS experience.
How does the hiring process work?
You'll meet a number of Tessians over three rounds of video calls. We'll ask you about your portfolio and background and run some small in person design challenges.
We've come up with a great way to assess candidates during our process so we won't ask you to do a take home challenge.
We'd like to meet someone who:
- Has 3+ years experience working and collaborating with engineering teams in dynamic environments
- Can showcase an outstanding portfolio including a strong foundation in both visual and interaction design
- Has experience closely partnering with product managers to develop the strategy and rationale for features
- Is comfortable working on complex, open ended design challenges
- Prefers building new products over optimising old ones
- Bonus - experience designing b2b web portals
- Bonus - experience designing analytics or visualisation tools
Why we think you'll love it here....
It’s important to us that all Tessians are part of the journey we’re on, so we offer equity options with every role and benchmark to provide above market rate salaries - there’s plenty more too….
Be at your best, both inside and outside of work
- 25 days of paid holiday (including an additional day for every year you've worked at Tessian!)
- Private health insurance provided through Vitality Health and mental health support through our Employee Assistance Program
- Classpass - subsided access to gym time and classes all across London
- Flexible working hours and working from home (if you're not already remote!)
- Enhanced pension contributions, matched up to 5%
- We’re family friendly, with policies built to support you in all stages of life
- High-quality tech kit provided for you to work on including Tessian ANC headphones
- If you're relocating to join the team, we'll provide a contribution to help with your costs

Data Science at Tessian
Our mission is to secure the human layer. This involves deploying near real-time machine learning models at massive scale to some of the world’s largest organisations to keep their most sensitive data private and secure. To do this, we're looking for a senior data scientist with NLP experience ready to work on hard problems, drive best practice and cultivate an environment of experimentation and learning. Companies can leverage data science in a number of ways, and we think the role of a Data Scientist falls into three distinct categories:
1) You work for a business function analysing & reporting on how to improve a key metric, e.g increasing user conversion
2) You are responsible for writing production models to enhance the main product, e.g recommendation systems for e-commerce
3) You are the product - without machine learning, it wouldn't exist
The Data Science team built the product at Tessian. We couldn't exist without our machine learning models; it’s at the heart of what we do, and it’s what our clients rely on day-to-day. We're searching for a Lead NLP Data Scientist who is excited about the opportunities and challenges that come with researching, building and deploying real-time production models. In this role you'll get to:
- Work across massive enterprise email datasets
- Deploy models to production that impacts directly our customers and products
- Improve our ML workflow
- Collaborate with engineering and product leaders to develop a product suite that is continually detecting more advanced threats for our customers
- Make your mark on leading ambitious projects
- Mentor and knowledge share with data scientists at Tessian
We'd love to meet someone who:
- 4+ years Data Science experience
- Has strong NLP experience (in production)
- Has worked with, or understands the principles behind working with data at scale
- Can balance longer term projects alongside impactful quick wins
- Cares deeply about the impact their team hasIs a creative at heart, and can encourage novel ways of thinking in their team. This has always been a core part of the data science team’s DNA
- Reads Rules of Machine Learning - Martin Zinkevich and it resonates with how they think about machine learning and data science
Why we think you'll love it here....

How does the hiring process work?
You'll meet a number of Tessians over three rounds of video calls. We'll ask you about your portfolio and background and run some small in person design challenges.

We'd like to meet someone who:
- Has 3+ years experience working and collaborating with engineering teams in dynamic environments
- Can showcase an outstanding portfolio including a strong foundation in both visual and interaction design
- Has experience closely partnering with product managers to develop the strategy and rationale for features

- You are responsible for writing production models to enhance the main product, e.g recommendation systems for e-commerce
- You build the product - without machine learning, it wouldn't exist
The Data Science team built the product at Tessian. We couldn't exist without our machine learning models; they are at the heart of what we do, and they are what our clients rely on day-to-day. We're searching for a Senior Data Scientist who is excited about the opportunities and challenges that come with researching, building and deploying real-time production models.
On a day to day basis you'll get to
- Work across massive enterprise email datasets
- Train and deploy models to production that impacts directly our customers and products
- Improve our ML workflow
- Work closely with our Engineering and Product Team to enhance our products.
- Make your mark on ambitious projects
We'd love to meet someone who

- Enjoys “getting their hands dirty” by digging into complex operations
- Takes responsibility for delivering large projects that require collaboration from start to finish
- Has strong listening skills; open to input from other team members and departments
- Has worked with, or understands the principles behind working with data at scale
Job Benefits:
- A full week of work-remote a year for non-remoters +25 days of holiday
- Choice First! Flexible working hours and working from home
- We’re family friendly, with policies built to support you

Data Science at Tessian
Our mission is to secure the human layer. This involves deploying near real-time machine learning models at massive scale to some of the world’s largest organisations to keep their most sensitive data private and secure. To do this, we're looking for a senior data scientist with NLP experience ready to work on hard problems, drive best practice and cultivate an environment of experimentation and learning. Companies can leverage data science in a number of ways, and we think the role of a Data Scientist falls into three distinct categories:
1) You work for a business function analysing & reporting on how to improve a key metric, e.g increasing user conversion
2) You are responsible for writing production models to enhance the main product, e.g recommendation systems for e-commerce
3) You are the product - without machine learning, it wouldn't exist
The Data Science team built the product at Tessian. We couldn't exist without our machine learning models; it’s at the heart of what we do, and it’s what our clients rely on day-to-day. We're searching for a Lead NLP Data Scientist who is excited about the opportunities and challenges that come with researching, building and deploying real-time production models. In this role you'll get to:
- Work across massive enterprise email datasets
- Deploy models to production that impacts directly our customers and products

The new senior product designer will have significant impact in defining the design process at Tessian. We value collaborative design, and use Figma for UX/UI work. We’re looking for someone hands-on that values the impact design can have over perfection.
We’re open to a variety of experience levels and would love to meet someone with startup or b2b SaaS experience.
How does the hiring process work?
You'll meet a number of Tessians over three rounds of video calls. We'll ask you about your portfolio and background and run some small in person design challenges.

We'd like to meet someone who:
- Has 3+ years experience working and collaborating with engineering teams in dynamic environments
- Can showcase an outstanding portfolio including a strong foundation in both visual and interaction design
- Has experience closely partnering with product managers to develop the strategy and rationale for features

The new senior product designer will have significant impact in defining the design process at Tessian. We value collaborative design, and use Figma for UX/UI work. We’re looking for someone hands-on that values the impact design can have over perfection.
We’re open to a variety of experience levels and would love to meet someone with startup or b2b SaaS experience.
How does the hiring process work?
You'll meet a number of Tessians over three rounds of video calls. We'll ask you about your portfolio and background and run some small in person design challenges.

We'd like to meet someone who:
- Has 3+ years experience working and collaborating with engineering teams in dynamic environments
- Can showcase an outstanding portfolio including a strong foundation in both visual and interaction design
- Has experience closely partnering with product managers to develop the strategy and rationale for features

Product at Tessian
Having found exceptional product/market fit for our category-defining Human Layer Security software platform, we’re in the midst of transitioning from 'start-up' to ‘scale-up’, and are looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our team.
Product Designers at Tessian work closely with our autonomous, cross-functional engineering teams to deliver amazing experiences for our customers. As part of the Product team, Product Designers work flexibly and are able to utilise UX, UI and Product skill sets.
We’re not a typical cybersecurity company, and we need someone who can communicate this through impactful UI and UX design. Our main design challenge is creating analytics dashboards and visualisations to communicate trends detected by Tessian in massive email datasets. You might also work on rethinking complex workflows, or designing friendly interactions for our end-users.
The new senior product designer will have significant impact in defining the design process at Tessian. We value collaborative design, and use Figma for UX/UI work. We’re looking for someone hands-on that values the impact design can have over perfection.
We’re open to a variety of experience levels and would love to meet someone with startup or b2b SaaS experience.
How does the hiring process work?
You'll meet a number of Tessians over three rounds of video calls. We'll ask you about your portfolio and background and run some small in person design challenges.
We've come up with a great way to assess candidates during our process so we won't ask you to do a take home challenge.
We'd like to meet someone who:
- Has 3+ years experience working and collaborating with engineering teams in dynamic environments
- Can showcase an outstanding portfolio including a strong foundation in both visual and interaction design
- Has experience closely partnering with product managers to develop the strategy and rationale for features
- Is comfortable working on complex, open ended design challenges
- Prefers building new products over optimising old ones
- Bonus - experience designing b2b web portals
- Bonus - experience designing analytics or visualisation tools

- Keeping the lights on as we scale to bigger customers - a crucial part of this role is to ensure that our systems remain reliable and working with engineering teams to drive quality and solve problems.
What will your responsibilities be:
- Improve efficiency by finding and fixing gaps in our tooling

We believe that our product, whilst highly technical, should deliver a best-in-class user experience where complexity is hidden. As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you will play an integral part in rebuilding our portal from the ground up to help us achieve this.
From a Frontend perspective, we have two main challenges at Tessian; concisely communicating security insights from millions of data points back to our clients through analytics and dashboards, and ensuring all our users find our portal easy to use, despite its industry-leading level of sophistication and flexibility.
You should be comfortable with Javascript and a frontend framework. If you're also able to use a little Python to plug our frontend into our backend that's a plus!
You'll have 3+ years of experience working in frontend development and be able to work to a high technical standard.
Dealing with massive datasets at scale requires ingenuity and strong analytical skills. Our approach to problem solving means we favour hiring engineers who pride themselves on the ability to learn new skills, their comfort with the unknown and their willingness to experiment.
