Product Engineer-AI & Automation

Product Engineer-AI & Automation

London (Hybrid)

£100k-£120k

We’re partnering with a high-growth consumer brand to hire their first AI Automation Lead — a pivotal role focused on scaling the business to £50M+ ARR without proportional headcount growth.

This is a rare opportunity to build an AI-first operating system inside a real, revenue-generating business — not a sandbox.

The Role

You’ll work directly with senior leadership to identify, build, and deploy automation across the business — from supply chain to retail operations.

This is a hands-on builder role with strategic influence.

What you'll be doing

• Design and implement end-to-end automation workflows across ops, supply chain, and B2B retail
• Build agent-based systems to replace manual processes
• Standardise and own the company-wide AI tooling stack
• Run workshops to identify high-impact use cases across teams
• Drive adoption and training for non-technical users
• Continuously improve and maintain workflows (not just ship and leave)

Key Focus Areas

• B2B retail operations (order management, replenishment, reporting)
• Supply chain & procurement workflows
• Forecasting and planning systems
• Warehouse coordination and assembly processes
• Internal productivity and automation tooling

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience building real automation that replaces human work
• Strong hands-on capability with tools like Zapier, Make, APIs, GPT-based systems
• Operator mindset — you understand how businesses actually run
• Comfortable working across functions and navigating ambiguity
• High velocity: you ship quickly and iterate

Nice to Have

• Background in product, operations, or technical consulting
• Experience in high-growth startups or scale-ups
• Exposure to supply chain, logistics, or back-office systems
• Experience building interoperable tool ecosystems
