You'll help identify opportunities for automation, AI adoption, and workflow optimisation while building production-ready solutions that solve real-world challenges.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys combining strong engineering skills with customer engagement, problem-solving, and innovation.

• Partner with business stakeholders to understand operational challenges and identify high-value technology opportunities.
• Design, build, and deploy custom applications, AI solutions, and automation tools.
• Develop proof-of-concepts and rapidly iterate solutions based on user feedback.
• Work closely with product, data, and engineering teams to scale successful initiatives into production.
• Drive adoption of AI technologies, including LLMs, agentic workflows, and automation platforms.
• Translate complex business requirements into robust technical solutions.
• Act as the bridge between technical teams and business users.
• Help shape the organisation's AI and technology strategy through hands‑on delivery and experimentation.

What We're Looking For

Essential

• Strong software engineering experience with languages such as Python, TypeScript, Java, or C#.
• Experience building production-grade applications and APIs.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or GCP.
• Experience working directly with stakeholders to gather requirements and deliver solutions.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and a pragmatic approach to delivery.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.

Desirable

• Experience with Generative AI, LLMs, AI agents, or Copilot technologies.
• Exposure to data engineering, analytics, or machine learning.
• Experience developing workflow automation solutions.
• Consulting, solutions engineering, or customer‑facing engineering experience.
• Knowledge of modern DevOps and CI/CD practices.

What's In It For You?

• Salary of up to £100,000
• Opportunity to work on cutting‑edge AI and automation initiatives
• High levels of ownership and autonomy
• Exposure to senior stakeholders and strategic projects
• Collaborative and innovative engineering culture
• Clear progression opportunities as the organisation scales its AI capabilities
