Senior Automation Engineer

BD Talent has exclusively partnered with one of the most exciting tech start-ups to hit the North West.

Founded by an industry titan with over 25 years of experience in the tech sector, this is a superb opportunity to join the company at the beginning of their journey, playing a truly imperative role.

Joining now will mean you can shape and own the approach, tech stack and direction of the entire engineering function, building both the culture and a team around you. The autonomy, trust and backing you’ll get will also be second to none.

This is a start up that will be using AI and tech for good – working closely with clients to reduce costs and increase reliability in their day to day operations. Acting as true Consultants, you and the team will work with clients to improve workflows by identifying where automation and AI solutions can add real value.

As the tech Lead, your focus will be on:

• Designing and delivering automation and AI solutions for a range of SMEs
• Building out a library of reusable modules, components and internal frameworks
• Engaging directly with stakeholders to understand needs and to identify opportunities
• Solution architecture inc. defining solution patterns, approach and best practice
• Growing and leading a team of Engineers as the client base further grows
• Defining and documenting the technical roadmap, toolset, environment and processes

They are a secure start-up with:

• Multiple client engagements, ready to initiate
• Funding offers from external partners
• A solid reputation and lengthy contact list
• And a strong demand for their services

The exact tech stack is fluid and dependent on both this hire and the most suitable tool for each project. We need someone senior level who would be comfortable working as the first and currently only tech specialist and someone with experience across:

• AI/ML models (LLMs, embeddings, classification, summarisation)
• Data wrangling and ETL tools
• Cloud platforms and serverless architectures
• RPA or orchestration frameworks

They are in a great position, strong financially and with clients already signed up – that’s what makes this such a fantastic opportunity, especially for someone with a genuine interest in AI and Automation. Just imagine how content you could be in a role with masses of autonomy that requires you to challenge yourself and design solutions to help businesses operate better and in turn, overcome any market challenges they may face.

One for you? If so apply now, we’d love to speak to you about this further.
