Artificial Intelligence Engineer

We’re partnering with a forward-thinking organisation investing heavily in next-generation AI systems to power intelligent, data-driven applications.

This is a high-impact Senior Engineer role within a growing engineering function. You’ll take ownership of designing and delivering scalable AI-driven systems, working across the full lifecycle—from architecture through to deployment and optimisation in production.

If you enjoy building from first principles, working with modern LLM frameworks, and shaping how AI is embedded into real-world products, this is a genuinely exciting opportunity.

You’ll be responsible for architecting and optimising intelligent systems, ensuring they are scalable, performant and production-ready.

• Designing and optimising AI-driven architectures
• Implementing vector and graph database solutions
• Building Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines
• Developing agentic reasoning workflows (LangChain, LlamaIndex or similar)
• Managing the end-to-end AI lifecycle—ingestion, embeddings, extraction, synthesis, prompt engineering and orchestration
• Deploying and maintaining containerised models in Docker-based environments
• Collaborating closely with product and business stakeholders
• Mentoring and supporting more junior engineers

• Experience with FastAPI, Celery and Postgres
• Hands‑on experience with vector databases and graph databases
• Experience building RAG-based systems
• Experience with agentic/orchestration frameworks (e.g. LangChain, LlamaIndex)
• Solid understanding of LLMs, embeddings and prompt engineering

• Docker and cloud-native deployment experience
• Advanced RAG approaches such as:
  • Tool-Augmented Generation (TAG)
  • Context-Aware Generation (CAG)
  • GraphRAG

• Collaborative, engineering-led culture
• Strong focus on innovation and continuous improvement
• Flexible hybrid working
• Opportunity to shape AI capability from the ground up
• Modern cloud-native architecture

• Discretionary bonus
• Non-contributory pension
• Private medical (family cover) + dental

This role would suit someone who enjoys technical ownership, thinking architecturally, and building intelligent systems that have genuine business impact.
