Position Overview

We're hiring Staff Software Engineers (AI) to set the technical direction for our products. You'll work across engineering and customer delivery teams, owning the hardest architectural problems and moving between hands-on engineering and broader product and business conversations. You'll raise the engineering bar for the whole organisation through the systems you design, the standards you set, and the engineers you grow. If you do your best work when the problem is ambiguous and the scope crosses team boundaries, you'll fit here.

Key Responsibilities

• Defining the architecture for AI Co-Worker systems that let enterprise customers deploy persona-based AI Co-Workers to perform complex, end-to-end operational workflows through their own secure platform.
• Designing and delivering secure, scalable APIs and platform foundations across large-scale enterprise environments, and staying hands-on in the code on the most critical paths.
• Partnering with customers, product, and senior leadership to shape technical roadmaps and make sure solutions exceed expectations.
• Setting engineering standards for design reviews, testing, reliability, and security across multiple delivery teams.
• Mentoring Senior and Software Engineers, and acting as a technical leader and multiplier across the organisation.

Requirements

• Extensive software development experience, including recent hands-on AI work and a track record of leading technically complex, multi-team initiatives.
• Strong coding fundamentals; we primarily use Node.js and TypeScript.
• Experience designing and operating distributed, production-grade systems at enterprise scale.
• Experience building systems where security and data governance are first-class design constraints from the start.
• Proven ability to mentor engineers and influence technical decisions across teams and with senior stakeholders.
• Sharp problem-solving instincts and the follow-through to match.

• A high-performance culture
• State-of-the-art technology
• Experience world-class leadership
• Scale of impact and purpose
• A competitive salary and a huge growth trajectory
• Work with the best in the industry
