Remote | Contract Opportunity

I’m currently working with an innovative technology business operating at the forefront of AI and autonomous systems development.

They are looking to hire technically strong engineers with experience across backend development, AI automation and complex systems integration to support projects focused on training and improving next-generation AI agents and large language models.

This is a genuinely exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI workflows and contribute to the development of advanced multi-step autonomous systems operating within real-world environments.

What you’ll be working on:

• Building and supporting production-grade backend systems

• Developing modular architectures across data, logic and reporting layers

• Supporting complex multi-stage AI workflows and orchestration tasks

• Integrating live tools, APIs and external platforms into autonomous systems

• Analysing and improving system behaviours, outputs and performance

• Identifying failures, inefficiencies and optimisation opportunities across AI agents

What they’re looking for:

• 2+ years’ experience within backend engineering, AI automation or systems integration

• Strong experience with at least two programming languages such as Python, JavaScript, Go or Java

• Experience working with SQL databases and live production environments

• Strong understanding of complex workflows, multi-turn interactions and system coordination

• Excellent attention to detail and analytical problem-solving skills

Additional experience that would be highly beneficial:

• AI orchestration or agent-based systems

• API integrations and external tooling

• Persistent memory/state management

• Security awareness including privacy risks and prompt injection vulnerabilities

This would suit someone who enjoys solving complex technical challenges and wants exposure to some of the most progressive AI-focused projects currently being developed.
