Leap29; Greater London; Hybrid; GBP 70,000 - 110,000; Full time

Job summary

Leap29 in London is seeking an Embedded Software & Power Platform AI Engineer to join hybrid work. You'll combine low-level engineering discipline (devices, data, real-time systems) with Power Platform and applied AI to build solutions that connect operational technology to the people who use it.

You'll also work closely with the teams who depend on those systems. You'll understand how the work really gets done, map the process, and build the solution yourself, from the device or data source

Qualifications

• Strong hands-on experience delivering production solutions on Microsoft Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse)
• Experience integrating devices, sensors or industrial systems with cloud platforms, ideally Azure
• Practical experience applying AI or Copilot capabilities in real workflows, with a sensible view of where they help and where they don't
• Engineering discipline: version control, environment management, testing and CI/CD
• Clear communication, with the ability to run discovery sessions and explain technical choices to non-technical colleagues
• A pragmatic, ownership-driven mindset

Responsibilities

• Understand workflows, pain points and data; map current and future-state processes
• Build solutions with Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse and Power BI
• Connect devices and embedded systems to the Microsoft stack using Azure IoT Hub, Event Hubs and Logic Apps
• Work with embedded software and firmware for telemetry and device data
• Apply AI using Copilot Studio, AI Builder, Azure OpenAI and Azure ML for anomaly detection and intelligent assistants
• Prototype quickly and iterate based on user feedback
