AI Product Engineer Engineering Nottingham, UK

Ordernised; Nottingham; Hybride; GBP 65 000 - 90 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Ordernised seeks a software engineer to prototype useful AI assistance for restaurant teams. You will connect model capabilities to real user problems, test usefulness, and build the surrounding product experience.

The role involves conventional software engineering, evaluation design and cost awareness, ensuring actions like pricing or publishing remain subject to user review rather than silent automated changes.

Qualifications

• Strong software engineering skills in TypeScript and Python.
• Hands-on experience building an application with model APIs or retrieval components.
• Ability to evaluate model output systematically.
• Understanding of API reliability, validation and secure handling of customer information.
• Product judgement about where automation is useful and where user review is necessary.

Responsabilités

• Build prototypes and production-quality interfaces around carefully scoped AI use cases.
• Design structured inputs and outputs with validation and sensible fallback behaviour.
• Create evaluation datasets and compare usefulness, accuracy, latency and cost.
• Implement retrieval with tenant-aware access controls and source traceability.
• Protect sensitive information through minimisation, redaction and appropriate retention choices.
• Give users clear review and correction steps before publishing generated content.
• Work with product and support teams to identify failure patterns and improve the experience.

Description du poste

Prototype useful AI assistance for restaurant teams, with clear evaluation and human control over consequential changes.

This role explores potential AI features such as menu-drafting assistance, support search and operational summaries. You will connect model capabilities to a well-defined user problem, test whether they help and build the surrounding product experience. The work includes conventional software engineering, evaluation design and cost awareness. Restaurant pricing, publishing and other consequential actions should remain subject to appropriate user review rather than being changed silently by an experimental feature.

What you would be doing

• Build prototypes and production-quality interfaces around carefully scoped AI use cases.
• Design structured inputs and outputs with validation and sensible fallback behaviour.
• Create evaluation datasets and compare usefulness, accuracy, latency and cost.
• Implement retrieval with tenant-aware access controls and source traceability.
• Protect sensitive information through minimisation, redaction and appropriate retention choices.
• Give users clear review and correction steps before publishing generated content.
• Work with product and support teams to identify failure patterns and improve the experience.

What we are looking for

• Strong software engineering skills in TypeScript, Python or both.
• Hands‑on experience building an application with model APIs or retrieval components.
• Ability to evaluate model output systematically rather than relying on a few successful examples.
• Understanding of API reliability, validation and secure handling of customer information.
• Product judgement about where automation is useful and where user review is necessary.

Useful, but not essential

• Experience with structured generation, embeddings or retrieval‑augmented applications.
• Familiarity with evaluation tooling and model cost monitoring.
• Experience building workflow or support-assistance products.
