Agentic AI


Hands-on AI Engineering Lead to lead the delivery of a defined AI project for a SaaS company.


The work is suited to someone operating at Principal Engineer or Head of Engineering level who has built and shipped agentic AI systems and can do so again, quickly, in a real-world product environment.


The role is embedded within a small innovation pod and works closely with Product leadership. It is not a research role and not a people-management role.


Purpose of the role

  • Deliver a small number of high-impact, AI-enabled solutions tied to clear business outcomes
  • Accelerate execution using Amazon Q and modern engineering tooling

Key responsibilities

  • Design, build, and ship agentic AI systems where AI acts as an active collaborator in workflows
  • Deliver production-grade AI-enabled features and prototypes
  • Apply AI to concrete business and customer problems, not generic chatbots or demos
  • Work directly in the codebase on core implementation
  • Lead technical delivery for the AI project end to end
  • Make architectural decisions that balance speed, quality, and safety
  • Integrate AI capabilities into existing systems pragmatically
  • Pair with engineers as needed to unblock delivery and accelerate progress

Tooling and stack

  • Use Amazon Q as the primary AI development assistant
  • Work within a .NET and Angular technology stack
  • Operate within Azure DevOps pipelines and CI/CD workflows
  • Introduce automation only where it demonstrably improves speed or quality

Required experience - Essential

  • Demonstrable experience building and shipping agentic AI systems in real products
  • 10–15+ years of hands‑on engineering experience
  • Strong background in .NET and Angular
  • Practical, day-to-day use of Amazon Q or equivalent AI coding assistants
  • Strong judgement around system design, risk, and trade-offs

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

Advertising AI jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. 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.

From cutting-edge startups to global giants doubling down on Britain, these companies represent the next wave of AI career opportunities.

How Many AI Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an AI Job?

If you are job hunting in AI right now it can feel like you are drowning in tools. Every week there is a new framework, a new “must-learn” platform or a new productivity app that everyone on LinkedIn seems to be using. The result is predictable: job seekers panic-learn a long list of tools without actually getting better at delivering outcomes. Here is the truth most hiring managers will quietly agree with. They do not hire you because you know 27 tools. They hire you because you can solve a problem, communicate trade-offs, ship something reliable and improve it with feedback. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many AI tools do you actually need to know? For most AI job seekers: fewer than you think. You need a tight core toolkit plus a role-specific layer. Everything else is optional. This guide breaks it down clearly, gives you a simple framework to choose what to learn and shows you how to present your toolset on your CV, portfolio and interviews.
