Requirements

  • Demonstrable experience in a critical software engineering or production engineering role with high business impact and a strong programming foundation (Java, Python, Go, or equivalent)
  • Hands-on experience with AI/ML engineering — including working with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or open-source equivalents), embedding models, and vector databases
  • Proven expertise in prompt engineering: designing, iterating, and evaluating prompts for production use cases including classification, summarisation, code generation, and autonomous decision-making
  • Experience designing and deploying agentic systems using frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, or equivalent — including multi-agent orchestration and tool-use patterns
  • Excellent engineering skills and strong understanding of Software Development Lifecycle, GitOps, and modern DevSecOps practices
  • Excellent working knowledge of key computer science concepts (networking, operating systems, virtualisation, containerisation, etc.)
  • Polyglot full-stack developer mentality and ability to pick up new languages and skills
  • Excellent debugging and analytical skills: ability to isolate root cause across networking/infrastructure, application, and database stacks
  • Operational experience of deploying and running services at scale on top of Docker/Kubernetes stack and a service mesh (Istio or equivalent) is highly desirable
  • Operational experience with orchestration tools for CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code tooling (Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi, etc.) is highly desirable
  • Experience of delivering software using Agile delivery methodologies is a must (SCRUM/Kanban)
  • Operational experience of using middleware technologies (MQ, Apache Kafka, etc.) to run services at scale is desirable
