Brief description of the vacancy

We’re looking for a Gen AI Scientist to develop, scale, and support our LLM-driven autonomous platform. You’ll work with LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, and deploy open-source models (LLaMA, DeepSeek) in the Google Cloud.

About the company

Anecdote is an innovative, AI-first startup revolutionizing how companies analyze customer feedback. Our AI-powered platform consolidates feedback from app reviews, support chats, surveys, and social media into a single, easily accessible space. This enables companies like Grubhub, Dropbox, and Careem to derive actionable insights and deliver a better, real-time customer experience that drives sustainable growth.

We are backed by top investors, including Neo, Sukna, Race Capital, Propeller, and Wamda, having raised $3.5m to date.

Responsibilities

  • Develop, scale, and support our LLM agentic system platform.
  • Design and implement AI-driven autonomous workflows, enabling seamless human-AI interaction.
  • Build and deploy open-source models in cloud environments, optimizing inference and serving costs.
  • Improve and maintain data pipeline reliability and participate in on-call rotations.
  • Debug and fix issues in ML pipelines, even when the cause is obscure.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate AI models into production systems.
  • Clearly articulate the work you’ve done and the impact you’ve made.

We are early stage, so the work is dynamic and evolving.Examples of additional challenges you might tackle:

  • Make things work. Even the hardest things.
  • Deploy AI models in scalable and cost-efficient ways.
  • Optimize prompts, refine model outputs, and experiment with novel prompting strategies.
  • Implement backend endpoints to bridge AI capabilities into our production stack.
  • Label data and refine model training workflows.
  • Hire and manage part-time annotators to improve data quality.
  • Create quick prototypes using Dash/Streamlit to validate concepts.
  • Own features end-to-end, from ideation to deployment.
  • Be on-call for urgent AI model fixes or system failures.

Qualifications

  • Proficiency in Python and related libraries (e.g., NumPy, SciPy, pandas) is required.
  • Strong production experience with at least one framework: LangChain, AutoGen, or CrewAI.
  • Deep understanding of agentic systems, autonomous workflows, and LLM-based automation.
  • Experience deploying and fine-tuning open-source models (e.g., LLaMA, DeepSeek) in the cloud.
  • 5 years of hands-on experience in building, productionizing, iterating, and scaling AI-driven pipelines.
  • Ability to take projects to completion, unblock yourself, and present results clearly and impactfully.
  • Staying on top of recent trends, with hands-on experience in fine-tuning LLMs beyond API comparisons.
  • Strong knowledge of software engineering, including building scalable web services and APIs. Experience developing full-stack applications, including database design, API development, admin panel creation, and monitoring systems.
  • Experience with GCP is a big plus.
  • DevOps experience is a big plus.
  • Prompt engineering expertise and creative problem-solving mindset.
  • Experience with processing multimodal data (text, images, audio) is a plus.

Perks and Benefits:

  • Fully Remote:Work from anywhere with flexible hours.

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.

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.
