AI Software Engineer


  • Hybrid role in Soho
  • £80-120k depending on experience


We’re on a mission to reinvent how AI understands people — not through CVs or data points, but through story, reasoning, and curiosity. We’re building systems that listen, interpret, and understand why people say what they say. The goal? Create AI that perceives human potential, not just human input.

If you love working on ideas that feel impossible — keep reading.


The Role

We’re looking for an engineer who blends technical depth with creative instinct.

You’ll work directly with founders to shape the intelligence layer behind a new generation of human-aware AI — from LLM reasoning and semantic understanding to full-stack experiences that feel emotionally intelligent.


If you’ve worked in a disruptive industry and built something brand new — not just improved what already existed — this will feel familiar.


What You’ll Be Building

  • Core intelligence systems: LLM orchestration, semantic reasoning, and voice understanding
  • Fast, intuitive interfaces that make human-AI interaction feel alive
  • Rapid prototypes that turn bold ideas into working products
  • Scalable infrastructure for experimentation and learning


You’ll Thrive Here If You

  • Come from a disruptive, fast-moving environment
  • Have helped launch or shape new ideas, products, or technologies
  • Think in systems and build with elegance
  • Believe speed drives creativity
  • Are curious about human cognition and behaviour
  • Value truth, craft, and collaboration over hierarchy


What You Bring

  • Deep fluency in TypeScript and modern frameworks
  • Experience with vector databases and embeddings
  • Strength in LLM fine-tuning or multimodal reasoning
  • Proven ability to ship full-stack products fast
  • Strong Python skills
  • Experience using Gemini would be preferred


The Culture

Just a small, ambitious team that debates hard, builds fast, and chases ideas that matter.

AI Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Changing career into artificial intelligence in your 30s, 40s or 50s is no longer unusual in the UK. It is happening quietly every day across fintech, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, government & professional services. But it is also surrounded by hype, fear & misinformation. This article is a realistic, UK-specific guide for career switchers who want the truth about AI jobs: what roles genuinely exist, what skills employers actually hire for, how long retraining really takes & whether age is a barrier (spoiler: not in the way people think). If you are considering a move into AI but want facts rather than Silicon Valley fantasy, this is for you.

How to Write an AI Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Artificial intelligence is now embedded across almost every sector of the UK economy. From fintech and healthcare to retail, defence and climate tech, organisations are competing for AI talent at an unprecedented pace. Yet despite the volume of AI job adverts online, many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Roles are flooded with unsuitable applications, while highly capable AI professionals scroll past adverts that feel vague, inflated or disconnected from reality. In most cases, the issue isn’t a shortage of AI talent — it’s the quality of the job advert. Writing an effective AI job ad requires more care than traditional tech hiring. AI professionals are analytical, sceptical of hype and highly selective about where they apply. A poorly written advert doesn’t just fail to convert — it actively damages your credibility. This guide explains how to write an AI job ad that attracts the right people, filters out mismatches and positions your organisation as a serious employer in the AI space.

Maths for AI Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are a software engineer, data scientist or analyst looking to move into AI or you are a UK undergraduate or postgraduate in computer science, maths, engineering or a related subject applying for AI roles, the maths can feel like the biggest barrier. Job descriptions say “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals” but rarely spell out what that means day to day. The good news is you do not need a full maths degree worth of theory to start applying. For most UK roles like Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer, Data Scientist, Applied Scientist, NLP Engineer or Computer Vision Engineer, the maths you actually use again & again is concentrated in a handful of topics: Linear algebra essentials Probability & statistics for uncertainty & evaluation Calculus essentials for gradients & backprop Optimisation basics for training & tuning A small amount of discrete maths for practical reasoning This guide turns vague requirements into a clear checklist, a 6-week learning plan & portfolio projects that prove you can translate maths into working code.
