Staff AI Engineer (EdTech)
🚀 Staff AI Engineer — Leading EdTech Company | UK | Full-time
Our client is a globally recognised EdTech platform that has helped millions of learners worldwide master data science, analytics, and AI. Now they're going further - and they need a world-class Staff AI Engineer to help build the next generation of intelligent learning experiences.
What you'll own:
You won't be a feature factory. This is a high-ownership, high-impact role where you'll:
- Design and ship LLM-powered features directly into their learning platform - think intelligent code feedback, AI-assisted learning paths, and smart content recommendations
- Build and maintain RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, and evaluation frameworks that run reliably at scale
- Set the technical direction for how AI is integrated across the product — from architecture decisions to production observability
- Be a force multiplier for the engineering team through mentorship, code reviews, and raising the technical bar
You're a strong fit if you have:
✅ 6–10 years of hands-on AI/ML engineering experience, with a clear track record of shipping LLM-based systems to production (not just prototyping)
✅ Deep expertise in Python, modern LLM frameworks, and cloud infrastructure
✅ Experience building AI features inside a consumer or B2B product - developer tools, EdTech, or similar a big plus
✅ Strong engineering fundamentals: you care about reliability, observability, and clean architecture
✅ A builder mindset - you're energized by ambiguous problems, not slowed down by them
Why this role:
🌍 Work on a product used by millions of learners globally
🧠 Deep AI-first culture — this isn't an AI afterthought, it's core to the roadmap
🏡 Remote-friendly from the UK (candidate must be living in the UK with valid work permits)
💰 Competitive compensation
🤝 A team that values craft, curiosity, and getting things done
If you're the kind of engineer who gets excited about making learning genuinely smarter — not just adding a chatbot - we'd love to talk.
