AI is an epoch-defining technology, join a company where you’ll be empowered to envision its most powerful applications, and to make them happen.

About the team


In our Professional and Financial Services Business unit, we bring everything we have learned in more than a decade of Applied AI, and use it to help our clients navigate a rapidly changing landscape.


We develop and embed AI solutions which help financial institutions become more efficient, enhance customer experience, and find the commercial upside in uncertain markets. Within the constraints of a highly regulated industry, we see so much opportunity for impactful innovation and are proud to set the gold-standard for marrying technical excellence with safe deployment.

About the role

As a Full Stack Software Engineer, you will collaborate with cross-functional teams to build and scale AI-powered systems that solve unique challenges for global clients.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of the entire stack, turning sophisticated machine learning outputs into high-impact, production-ready solutions that drive real-world transformation.

What you'll be doing:

  • Creating reliable, reusable, and scalable frontend and backend architectures to enable the seamless delivery of advanced AI systems.

  • Leading engineers within cross-functional teams—alongside Data Scientists and Product Managers—to deploy technically sophisticated, high-impact software.

  • Designing and architecting robust project frameworks that maintain a balance between rapid prototyping and long-term maintainability.

  • Acting as a technical authority for full-stack development within your delivery unit to ensure best practices are met.

  • Providing deep technical expertise to customers, helping them navigate complex requirements and architectural scoping.

Who we're looking for:

  • You bring extensive experience in TypeScript and modern frontend frameworks like React or Vue, paired with a strong eye for intuitive UI/UX design.

  • You possess solid backend development skills in Python or TypeScript frameworks (such as FastAPI, Flask, or Django) and are comfortable managing the full application lifecycle.

  • You are experienced in deploying software within cloud environments like AWS, Azure, or GCP, ideally using containerisation tools like Docker.

  • You demonstrate a scientific and pragmatic mindset, testing assumptions and balancing big-picture vision with the technical details required for execution.

  • You thrive in autonomous, fast-paced environments where you can take full ownership of problems and collaborate directly with clients to define technical strategy.

  • You are a compelling communicator who enjoys working in a team-oriented culture and has a relentless drive to learn and apply novel technologies.

And we know from experience that diverse teams deliver better work, relevant to the world in which we live. We’re united by a deep intellectual curiosity and desire to use our abilities for measurable positive impact.

Where to Advertise AI Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise AI jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and communities that reach AI engineers, ML scientists and applied research talent in the UK. The candidate pool is small, highly informed and in demand across multiple sectors simultaneously. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that AI professionals expect — and the filtering mechanisms they rely on. Specialist platforms, direct outreach and academic channels each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise AI roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about time-to-hire across different role types.

AI Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

AI Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the generative AI, machine learning and applied AI hiring trends shaping UK artificial intelligence careers. Artificial intelligence is creating jobs faster than the market can name them. New roles are appearing every quarter, existing titles are splitting into specialisms, and the technologies underpinning it all are evolving at a pace that makes even last year's job descriptions feel dated. For job seekers, this presents a genuinely unusual challenge. In most industries, career planning means understanding a relatively stable landscape and working out where you fit within it. In AI, the landscape itself is being redrawn in real time. The roles with the most hiring activity in 2028 may not yet have a widely agreed job title in 2026. That's not a reason to feel overwhelmed — it's a reason to get informed. The candidates who thrive in this market aren't necessarily those with the longest CVs or the most credentials. They're the ones who understand the direction of travel: which skills are gaining value, which technologies are driving employer decisions, and how the definition of an "AI job" is expanding well beyond the tech sector. This article breaks down what the UK AI jobs market is likely to look like over the next three years — covering emerging job titles, the technologies reshaping hiring, the skills employers are prioritising, and how to position yourself ahead of the curve rather than behind it.
