What You'll Do:

  • Design, build, and manage secure, scalable AWS cloud environments.

  • Deploy and manage infrastructure using Terraform and Ansible.

  • Utilise edge computing to deliver secure, low-latency solutions.

  • Collaborate closely with technical teams, ensuring solutions align with security and operational standards.

    What You’ll Bring:

  • Willingness to go through SC clearance (essential due to the sensitive nature of projects).

  • Proven AWS experience, ideally within secure environments.

  • Experience integrating public and private cloud infrastructures to deliver unified hybrid cloud solutions.

  • Strong hands-on experience with Terraform and Ansible.

  • Knowledge or experience with Kubernetes and Docker.

  • Proficiency in Python or Golang.

    Company Culture:

    This organisation provides a supportive, down-to-earth working environment focused on collaboration, learning, and growth.

  • Flat company hierarchy

  • Personal training budgets

  • Senior mentoring and internal accelerator programmes

  • Flexible working

  • Outcomes-driven

    Benefits On Offer:

  • Health and wellness: Private medical insurance, health cash plan, and virtual GP services.

  • Financial security: Income protection, generous pension contributions, financial coaching and payroll charitable giving.

  • Lifestyle and family support: Enhanced parental leave, cycle-to-work and EV schemes, plus complimentary daily lunches and snacks.

    This is a great opportunity to contribute to a role that combines technical challenges with meaningful impact, in a supportive, fast-growing environment.

    Apply today for immediate consideration or reach out directly for further information.

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.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in AI Job Applications (UK Guide)

Hiring managers do not start by reading your CV line-by-line. They scan for signals. In AI roles especially, they are looking for proof that you can ship, learn fast, communicate clearly & work safely with data and systems. The best applications make those signals obvious in the first 10–20 seconds. This guide breaks down what hiring managers typically look for first in AI applications in the UK market, how to present it on your CV, LinkedIn & portfolio, and the most common reasons strong candidates get overlooked. Use it as a checklist to tighten your application before you click apply.

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.
