Overview

If you’ve ever wanted to join a startup just before it breaks out, this is that moment. Backed by elite investors, this company is already winning enterprise contracts with household name brands. Their product is redefining how global teams discover, understand, and act on information, making knowledge workflows faster, smarter, and more valuable.

Why this role matters: As their Applied AI Engineer, you won’t be in the background. You’ll be the one shaping how generative AI gets applied in the real world - designing intelligent agents, scalable workflows, and retrieval systems that will form the backbone of the product. The features you build will directly drive revenue and adoption, with your fingerprints all over the company’s trajectory heading into Series A.

What you’ll be working on
  • Designing and deploying LLM-powered agents to automate complex, multi-step workflows.
  • Building orchestration infrastructure with frameworks like LangGraph or PydanticAI.
  • Creating evaluation strategies with real-world signals and human-in-the-loop testing.
  • Developing RAG pipelines (Qdrant, Weaviate, etc.) for contextual awareness and retrieval.
  • Integrating OpenAI, Anthropic, Hugging Face APIs into production-grade systems.
  • Collaborating closely with product and design to ship AI-driven features that customers love.

You’ll operate across the stack: Python, FastAPI, backend services, orchestration frameworks, and cloud infrastructure (AWS, BigQuery).

Who you are
  • 5+ years in software engineering, with 1–3 years building applied AI/LLM features.
  • You’ve shipped production systems in early-stage startups (seed to Series A).
  • Experience with LangChain, LangGraph, or PydanticAI.
  • Strong grounding in prompt design, LLM evaluation, and optimisation techniques (KV caching, sampling strategies, etc.).
  • A first-principles thinker who thrives in greenfield environments.
  • Hybrid setup – join the Shoreditch office a couple of times a week, work remotely the rest.
  • Career trajectory – this role positions you to become a founding voice in the AI team as the company scales post-Series A.
  • Exposure to world-class peers
  • Impact – what you build will be used by global enterprises from day one.

This isn’t just another AI role. It’s a chance to help define how applied AI gets built and scaled in one of the most exciting startups in London.

The Skills Gap in AI Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Artificial intelligence is no longer a future concept. It is already reshaping how businesses operate, how decisions are made, and how entire industries compete. From finance and healthcare to retail, manufacturing, defence, and climate science, AI is embedded in critical systems across the UK economy. Yet despite unprecedented demand for AI talent, employers continue to report severe recruitment challenges. Vacancies remain open for months. Salaries rise year on year. Candidates with impressive academic credentials often fail technical interviews. At the heart of this disconnect lies a growing and uncomfortable truth: Universities are not fully preparing graduates for real-world AI jobs. This article explores the AI skills gap in depth—what is missing from many university programmes, why the gap persists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build a successful career in artificial intelligence.

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.
