{ “@context”: “http://schema.org”, “@type”: “JobPosting”, “title”: “Software Engineer – GenAI”, “description”: “

Software Engineer – AI – London / Hybrid (UK-based)

A high-growth, FinTech company is building intelligent, data-driven products to support businesses and consumers at scale across the UK and US. The organisation operates cloud-native platforms used by a large and diverse customer base and is continuing to invest heavily in AI-enabled capabilities across its core products.

The Role

This role sits within a product-led engineering team focused on applying AI and Generative AI to real-world business problems. You’ll work on large-scale systems where impact is measured by outcomes, not output.

You will:

  • Design and engineer large-scale, production-grade systems (5+ years’ experience)
  • Focus on business impact rather than lines of code
  • Embrace DevOps culture: you build it, you run it
  • Work effectively in cross-functional, autonomous teams
  • Mentor other engineers and help raise the bar across the team
  • Prefer simple, pragmatic solutions over unnecessary complexity
  • Stay effective and organised in fast-moving, ambiguous environments
  • Think broadly about how technical decisions affect the wider business
  • Leverage Generative AI tools to improve productivity and decision-making

Nice-to-Have Skills

  • Experience building AI or LLM-powered applications
  • Knowledge of NLP or intelligent document processing
  • Familiarity with vector databases (e.g. Pinecone, Weaviate)
  • Experience with search platforms (e.g. OpenSearch, Elasticsearch)
  • Exposure to agentic workflows or orchestration frameworks
  • Awareness of MCP (Model Context Protocol)

The team is pragmatic and cloud-native. Current tooling includes:

  • Languages: Python, TypeScript
  • Testing: Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress, pytest
  • Cloud: AWS, GCP
  • Infrastructure: Docker, ECS Fargate, Terraform
  • CI/CD: GitHub Actions
  • Collaborate: Pair programming and mission-driven squads
  • Outcome-focused: Solve real user problems tied to business results
  • Continuously improve: Fast feedback, learning-first mindset
  • User-centric: Decisions driven by data and direct user insight
  • Test-first: Outside-in testing with behaviour-focused scenarios
  • End-to-end ownership: Lead features from idea to production
  • Cloud-native: Automation-first, security by design

You’ll be part of an inclusive engineering culture that values:

  • Diverse perspectives and open discussion
  • Psychological safety and trust
  • Teams that are engaged, motivated, and genuinely enjoy working together

What’s on Offer

  • Hybrid working: Flexible, trust-based approach with optional in-person collaboration
  • Work–life balance: 25 days holiday + bank holidays, enhanced family leave
  • Compensation: Competitive salary plus equity
  • Equipment: High-spec laptop (macOS or Ubuntu)
  • Socials: Regular team and company events
  • Benefits: Cycle-to-work scheme and EV support
