Artificial Intelligence Engineer

The Role

You’ll sit at the intersection of AI, backend engineering, and cloud systems
, designing and deploying intelligent features that directly impact users.

Expect to:

• Design and implement LLM-based applications (RAG pipelines, agents, copilots)
• Build scalable backend services using Python and Java
• Own the full lifecycle: experimentation ? prototyping ? production
• Optimise model performance, cost, and latency in real-world environments
• Collaborate across engineering, product, and data teams to identify high-impact AI use cases

• 5+ years in software engineering, with strong experience in Python and/or Java
• Hands-on experience working with LLMs (prompt engineering, fine-tuning, embeddings, vector databases, RAG)
• Experience building and deploying applications in cloud environments (Azure preferred, AWS/GCP also considered)
• Strong understanding of APIs, microservices, and distributed systems
• Familiarity with tools like Docker, Kubernetes
  , and CI/CD pipelines
• Experience working with data stores (SQL/No
  
  SQL) and large datasets
• Bonus: experience with AI frameworks (Lang Chain, Llama Index, etc.)

• Be the first AI hire — real ownership and influence
• Work on meaningful,
  tech-for-good products
• Modern stack, forward-thinking leadership, strong growth trajectory
• Opportunity to define architecture, tooling, and best practices

• Salary up to £95,000 (depending on experience)
