Role: Software Engineer

Location: Hybrid, one day a week in Sheffield

Salary: Up to £40-50k

Are you the type of developer who love having your own autonomy and ownership over projects? Are you the type of developer who enjoys working in a collaborative environment with people you can learn from? Are you the type of developer who loves working on cutting edge technology?

If you like working in excitable, fast-moving start-ups where the tech and culture are amazing. There is a clear vison from the business and the career path is open for you.

Then there are roles with companies like the one we are recruiting for. An established, profitable young business who have struck a goldmine of an idea, and already have customers queuing up to sign on the dotted line.

They have developed a data-led product that is going to revolutionise their sector, and the orders are coming in thick and fast from major global players who they’ve worked with for years.

You’ll be joining a new data science team & software development team that is likely to grow further over the next 12 months.

As a Software Engineer you will be joining a dynamic development team to contribute to the evolution of WebApp and Data Platforms. This role is designed for a passionate individual eager to develop innovative features, resolve technical issues, and engage in the continuous improvement of software engineering processes. Your role will encompass the full software development lifecycle, including coding, testing, deploying, and monitoring, with a focus on delivering high-quality software solutions.

Thing you’ll need to bring to the table:

  • 3 years+ of experience in software development
  • Proficiency in at least one: Python, Java, Springboot with a testing framework
  • Strong knowledge of web development technologies (e.g., HTML, CSS, Vue.js, Pinia)
  • Experience with Cloud Platform, preferably Azure
  • Good understanding of software architecture and design principles
  • Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a team
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Experience with Agile development methodologies

The role would be based mainly from home with travel into Sheffield once a week, so ideally you will drive.

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.

Maths for AI Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are a software engineer, data scientist or analyst looking to move into AI or you are a UK undergraduate or postgraduate in computer science, maths, engineering or a related subject applying for AI roles, the maths can feel like the biggest barrier. Job descriptions say “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals” but rarely spell out what that means day to day. The good news is you do not need a full maths degree worth of theory to start applying. For most UK roles like Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer, Data Scientist, Applied Scientist, NLP Engineer or Computer Vision Engineer, the maths you actually use again & again is concentrated in a handful of topics: Linear algebra essentials Probability & statistics for uncertainty & evaluation Calculus essentials for gradients & backprop Optimisation basics for training & tuning A small amount of discrete maths for practical reasoning This guide turns vague requirements into a clear checklist, a 6-week learning plan & portfolio projects that prove you can translate maths into working code.

Neurodiversity in AI Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

The AI industry moves quickly, breaks rules & rewards people who see the world differently. That makes it a natural home for many neurodivergent people – including those with ADHD, autism & dyslexia. If you’re neurodivergent & considering a career in artificial intelligence, you might have been told your brain is “too much”, “too scattered” or “too different” for a technical field. In reality, many of the strengths that come with ADHD, autism & dyslexia map beautifully onto AI work – from spotting patterns in data to creative problem-solving & deep focus. This guide is written for AI job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in an AI context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths match specific AI roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence during applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer picture of where you might thrive in AI – & how to set yourself up for success.
