Build AI that actually makes it into production.

Share Force is partnering with one of the UK's leading Wealth Management businesses to hire a Senior AI Engineer as part of a major enterprise AI transformation. This isn't another AI lab or proof of concept.

Our client is investing heavily in AI to transform how financial advice is delivered. As one of the first dedicated AI engineering hires, you'll help build both the enterprise AI platform and the intelligent applications that sit on top of it.

Working directly with the Chief Information & Transformation Officer, you'll combine hands‑on software engineering with architectural influence—helping define engineering standards, shape the technology roadmap and deliver production AI solutions that create real business value.

• AI-powered adviser copilots
• Intelligent customer onboarding and fact-find automation
• Automated suitability reporting
• Enterprise knowledge retrieval using RAG
• Multi-Agent AI workflows
• AI evaluation, observability and governance
• Modern full stack AI applications

You’ll work across a modern Microsoft AI ecosystem including Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Search, Python, C#, React, Azure Functions, Azure Container Apps, Azure API Management, Azure Dev Ops, Git Hub, CI/CD, Dynamics 365, Dataverse, and Power Platform.

As the platform evolves, you’ll also have the opportunity to evaluate emerging AI technologies and influence future technical direction.

• Design, build and deploy production AI solutions using Azure AI Foundry
• Develop scalable APIs, backend services and AI orchestration frameworks
• Build modern full-stack applications that bring AI capabilities to life
• Develop reusable engineering patterns for RAG, evaluation and observability
• Integrate AI across Microsoft and third-party enterprise platforms
• Embed security, governance and Responsible AI throughout the software lifecycle
• Influence architecture, engineering standards and technical best practices
• Work closely with Product, Data, Compliance and Technology teams to deliver AI into production

We’re looking for an exceptional software engineer who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges and wants to build AI products that make a genuine business impact. You’ll ideally have experience with:

• Enterprise software delivered successfully into production
• Azure AI Foundry or another enterprise AI platform
• Python and/or C#
• Azure cloud engineering
• API and distributed application development
• Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
• CI/CD and modern Dev Ops practices
• Software architecture and technical design

Experience with Financial Services, Dynamics 365, Agentic AI or Microsoft Fabric would be advantageous, but isn’t essential.

• One of the first dedicated AI engineering hires
• Greenfield enterprise AI platform
• Genuine influence over architecture and engineering standards
• Direct access to executive leadership
• Modern Microsoft AI technology stack
• £90,000‑£100,000 + Bonus + Excellent Benefits
