Senior Software Engineer - AI Enablement

Senior Software Engineer - AI Enablement Help build production AI systems across a major enterprise. We’re looking for strong software engineers with hands‑on experience building production AI systems. This is a software engineering role first . Your background could be in Python, Node.js/TypeScript, Java, Go, C# or another modern backend stack. The important thing is strong engineering fundamentals and genuine experience taking AI-enabled systems into production. The team’s core language is Python , so you will need to be comfortable picking it up and working in it as part of the role. What you could be building • Customer-facing AI experiences that retrieve trusted information and interact with internal services • Internal employee agents that gather information, summarise context and recommend next actions • Agentic workflows that call enterprise APIs, tools and data sources • RAG and knowledge platforms grounded in approved internal information • Reusable engineering patterns around agents, MCP, evaluation, guardrails and observability • AI-assisted software delivery and engineering productivity What you’ll be doing • Build and support production AI systems and backend services • Design integrations with enterprise APIs, systems and data • Work across agents, RAG, MCP, tool calling and multi-step workflows • Implement evaluation, guardrails and human-in-the-loop patterns • Design for reliability, scalability, resilience and fault tolerance • Own solutions through testing, CI/CD, deployment, monitoring and production support • Contribute to reusable engineering patterns that can be adopted across multiple teams What we’re looking for: • Strong backend or software engineering experience • Hands‑on experience building production AI or LLM‑enabled systems • Strong system design and production ownership • Experience integrating APIs, services and enterprise data • Experience with agents, RAG, MCP, tool calling or similar patterns • Strong understanding of reliability, testing, monitoring and production support • Experience working in cloud environments • Willingness and ability to work in Python as part of the role You do not need to come from a Python‑first background. We are open to strong engineers from languages such as Node.js/TypeScript, Java, Go, C# and similar backend stacks , provided the software engineering and production AI experience is strong. What matters most • What problem did you solve? • What did you personally build? • Why did you design it that way? • What could fail? • How did you make it reliable? • How did it perform in production? This is an opportunity to join a major organisation while its enterprise AI capability is still being built, with the chance to influence how AI systems are designed, governed and operated across the business.
