Mid/Senior Backend Engineer | Hybrid (3 days a week in central Bristol) | TypeScript & Node.js | Salary £60-75k

Would you like to join a start-up working on a unique product that is revolutionising their industry?

They’ve built an AI-centric application that is already being used by a huge number of commercial customers & they’re still just getting started!

After going live last year, they are now embarking on their next stage of growth as they scale their product.

They’re looking for an awesome backend-leaning engineer, who is a pro with TypeScript & Node.js, but also has some capability with frontend technologies (specifically React & Next.js).

A standout candidate for them, will be someone with the ability to work on designing, building & maintaining complex features for their core product. You’ll also have the ability to thrive in a fast-paced start up where you can scale products at pace and support across various elements of the stack when required.
 
It’s incredibly rare to work on this type of product and be part of a business from such an early stage (they’re already revenue-generating plus have significant funding in-place!).
 
The future is bright for this business, so if you want to make a big impact on a growing product and become an instrumental part of the team – get in touch ASAP!
 
What you’ll need

A strong focus on backend development with TypeScript & Node.js
Experience with Nest.js is a bonus but is not essential
Experience of working with AWS or an alternative cloud technology
Some knowledge of React/Next.js, with the ability to support on frontend elements when required
Ideally experience within a start-up business, with the versatility & solution-focused attitude required to excel in that type of environment
Happy to work on a hybrid basis in Bristol alongside other core members of the team (3 days a week in a central Bristol office)  
A passion for building something cutting-edge
Any experience with Machine Learning or AI would be a bonus but is not essential

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.
