Job Description:

Software Developer – AI / Computer Vision | Real-Time Sports Analytics | Fully Remote

I’m working with a cutting-edge sports tech startup that’s using AI and computer vision to reshape how fans, coaches, and analysts experience live games. They're on the hunt for a software developer to join their AI/CV team and build real-time systems that push insights to customers as the action unfolds.

You’ll be right in the engine room, working closely with a tight-knit AI team on projects across football and growing into US sports. This is a hands-on, product-facing role for someone who loves fast-paced dev work and wants their code to be used during actual live matches.

Why this could be a great fit:

• You’ll build and optimize real-time data systems for live sport
• Work closely with computer vision and AI engineers on 2–3 key projects
• You’ll have room to grow into more responsibility as the team scales
• Flexible remote setup with support for cross-timezone collaboration
• No research-for-the-sake-of-it – your work goes straight into production

Tech you’ll be using:

• Potential exposure to CV, AI models, and emerging tooling
• Working in a collaborative, agile team

The offer:

• Salary up to £80,000
• Fully remote from anywhere in the UK
• Career growth opportunities in a small, focused team
• Visa sponsorship considered for exceptional candidates

If real-time data, sports tech, and building cool things that actually get used sounds like your thing – Apply now!!
