Applied AI Engineer

London (hybrid, three days per week onsite).
Competitive salary between £140,000 and £150,000.

This is an exciting opportunity to join an elite AI product team operating with the pace of a startup and the scale of a major software group. You will build production AI systems end to end, deploy into real customer environments, and accelerate your learning faster than almost anywhere else in the market.

The Company

They are an AI product incubator embedded within a large, well‑established B2B software investment environment. Their mission is to partner with portfolio companies to design, build, and ship AI products that have immediate commercial impact. Working in focused sprints, they deliver production systems into businesses across fintech, enterprise SaaS, and B2B services. The team is deliberately small, high‑performing, and structured to give engineers real ownership from day one.

The Role

  • Build full‑stack, production AI applications from first architecture through to customer‑facing delivery.
  • Develop backend, infrastructure, and frontend components using Python, FastAPI, React, TypeScript, and cloud platforms.
  • Deploy GenAI and LLM‑based systems, including evaluation, observability, and agent‑based workflows.
  • Operate in cross‑functional pods embedded into portfolio companies, typically for multi‑month build cycles.
  • Work with technical and commercial leaders to define product direction and ship quickly in high‑velocity environments.
  • Translate complex AI capabilities into scalable, reliable, revenue‑generating products.

Your Skills and Experience

  • Strong commercial experience delivering end‑to‑end AI products into production environments.
  • Broad engineering capability across backend, cloud infrastructure, and frontend development.
  • Hands‑on experience with GenAI, LLM deployment, and production‑grade ML tooling.
  • Comfortable working in ambiguous, fast‑moving settings such as startups or high‑intensity engineering teams.
  • Confident communicating with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders, including senior leadership.
  • A proactive, 0‑to‑1 mindset with the ability to set direction rather than wait for specifications.

What They Offer

  • Competitive base salary.
  • Meaningful carry and long‑term upside.
  • Hybrid working across London or New York, with flexibility to engage with portfolio teams.
  • Significant ownership, rapid progression, and direct exposure to C‑Suite stakeholders.
  • The opportunity to build multiple AI products across different industries, accelerating your development in a way few roles can match.

How to Apply

If you are excited by the chance to build real AI products at scale, please apply with your CV.
