Combines backend development with reliability and on-call work, closely partnered with product teams.

OpenAI · London

Builds and operates shared multi-cloud compute platforms behind ChatGPT and the OpenAI API, spanning Kubernetes cluster lifecycle, upgrades, patching, capacity management, autoscaling and infrastructure automation. The role carries end-to-end production ownership, including on-call incident response, and focuses on reusable platform tooling across OCI, AWS and Azure rather than GPU optimization.

Anthropic · London · £325,000 – £485,000 pa

Owns the full lifecycle of accelerator capacity, from ingesting and provisioning compute across major clouds and custom datacenters to scaling clusters and building health, diagnostics and repair automation for GPU, TPU and Trainium nodes. Sets technical strategy for node lifecycle management and drives cross-team initiatives to keep one of the industry's largest AI compute fleets reliable and usable.

Anthropic · London · £325,000 – £395,000 pa

Builds foundational infrastructure for AI safety safeguards, including data storage, metric and evaluation systems, and tooling for human and agentic review. The role involves maintaining real-time, multi-layered defenses against model misuse and disallowed behavior at scale, working across the stack primarily in Python.

Wayve · London

Set the technical direction for a petabyte-scale storage platform underpinning autonomous driving data, leading a multi-quarter programme from architecture to adoption. Build production services and controllers in Python or Go with Kubernetes and Terraform, optimising read performance, caching and cost while partnering with ML, data, security and privacy teams.

Darktrace · Cambridge

Works within Cambridge R&D teams on high-impact projects spanning rapid prototyping and structured platform development, providing expert technical direction and mentoring engineers across languages such as Python, JavaScript, Rust and C++. Involves advancing methodology for defending against unknown cyber-attacks, shaping technical strategy, and engaging with executive leadership. Hybrid role with two days a week in the Cambridge office.

Wayve · London

Build and operate a globally distributed Data Transfer Hub moving petabytes of video, LiDAR and sensor data per day between Wayve and partners such as Uber, Stellantis and Nissan. Write pipeline logic in Python, manage infrastructure with Terraform, and use Flyte, Kafka and Azure for orchestration, event-driven lifecycle tracking and storage. The small, high-autonomy team owns production reliability, observability and cost efficiency, with an out-of-hours on-call rotation once the service is established.

Ocado · London

Owns the software engineering that brings data science and machine learning products into live production for the Autoplanner team, building AI-powered planning systems across global warehouses and last-mile assets. Writes typed, well-tested Python (with some Java for OSP integration), builds APIs and data contracts, manages AWS deployments and CI/CD, and packages, serves and monitors ML models. Acts as engineering partner to data scientists and shares on-call support.

Thought Machine · London

Owns complex, ambiguous technical challenges end-to-end, shaping long-term architecture and engineering standards across cloud-native banking platforms. Acts as a link between senior leadership and engineering teams, driving systemic change, mentoring senior engineers, and improving production operations. Uses Go/Python and AI tooling to scale developer velocity.

Causaly · London

Builds and operates the platform running long-lived agentic workflows, where a single run can last hours and fan out across dozens of subagents. Work spans durable execution, checkpointing and retries, LLM integration with guardrails, and tracing and cost attribution across services and two languages, weighted towards backend and platform in TypeScript and Node.js.
