AI-First Full-Stack Software Engineer

Accenture; Greater London; On-site; GBP 70,000 - 120,000; Full time

Job summary

Accenture is seeking an AI Engineer (Software) to design, build, and ship production-grade software across the full stack, using AI-assisted tooling as standard daily practice alongside core engineering skills.

You will work on real client programs across industries, connecting to agentic AI systems, LLM APIs, and enterprise AI pipelines, with a clear path toward advanced engineering roles and certification pathways.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or related field.
• Commercial software engineering experience in production environments (or equivalent demonstrated through academic projects, internships, or shipped personal projects).
• Proficiency in at least one primary backend language: Python, Java, or TypeScript.
• Hands-on experience using AI tools actively in day-to-day engineering work — including direct experience calling LLM APIs in production code with understanding of token management, latency, and cost tradeoffs.
• Familiarity with cloud fundamentals (AWS, Azure, or GCP), containers (Docker), and CI/CD pipelines.
• Understanding of Agile delivery fundamentals.
• Experience with databases — SQL or NoSQL.
• Familiarity with agentic system concepts — LangChain, LangGraph, RAG pipelines, etc.

Responsibilities

• Use AI coding assistants daily as a standard part of delivery, with demonstrable impact on productivity and output quality.
• Integrate LLM APIs into applications in production: calling AI provider APIs in live code, managing token limits and latency, and building initial abstraction layers.
• Apply AI across the full software delivery lifecycle: AI-generated tests, AI-assisted debugging, AI-accelerated code review, and prompt engineering for development tasks.
• Own the quality of AI-generated outputs in your delivery scope; assess reliability and production readiness.
• Define and track KPIs to evaluate AI-assisted workflows; present AI productivity and quality metrics to stakeholders.
• Own delivery end-to-end — from design through production support — in Agile sprint cycles with client teams.
• Contribute to shared knowledge bases, reusable components, and internal AI tooling standards.
• Build and integrate application layers, APIs, and interfaces that connect full-stack systems to agentic backends.
