Lead AI Engineer

We’re working with a business investing heavily in AI and building a dedicated engineering function to deliver production AI solutions across the organisation.

This is a rare opportunity to join at an early stage and help shape the architecture, tooling and engineering standards behind their AI capability.

You’ll work hands-on with modern AI technologies while influencing technical direction, mentoring engineers and helping turn AI ideas into scalable products.

What you’ll be doing

• Build and deploy production AI solutions using Python and modern AI frameworks
• Develop LLM applications using RAG, prompt engineering and agentic workflows
• Shape AI architecture, tooling and engineering standards
• Work across Azure, cloud infrastructure and deployment pipelines
• Integrate AI solutions into existing platforms through APIs and services
• Mentor engineers and support technical decision-making

What we’re looking for

• Strong software engineering background with production AI experience
• Experience with LLMs, RAG and AI application development
• Azure and cloud infrastructure experience
• Understanding of APIs, DevOps and scalable systems
• Experience influencing technical direction and mentoring engineers

This is a chance to join an AI function at the point where key decisions are being made. You’ll have genuine ownership over how AI gets built, deployed and scaled.
