Lead Microsoft AI Automation Engineer | £75,000 - £85,000 | Hybrid Swindon or London

I'm looking for an exceptional Lead Microsoft AI Engineer to shape and deliver the next generation of automation within a large, regulated enterprise.

You'll combine hands-on engineering with technical leadership, designing and building production-grade AI agents, automation solutions, and reusable engineering patterns that fundamentally transform how the business operates.

What you'll be doing:

Designing and delivering enterprise-grade agentic AI solutions using Microsoft Foundry and Azure AI technologies;
Building intelligent automation using Power Automate, AI Builder and the wider Microsoft Power Platform;
Creating multi-agent workflows, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) solutions and AI assisted business processes;
Leading, coaching and developing a high performing engineering team.
Driving engineering excellence through code reviews, testing, observability and best practice; and
Evaluating emerging AI technologies and helping shape the organisation's future automation strategy.

You'll bring:

Proven experience building and deploying agentic AI solutions in production.
Deep expertise across Microsoft Foundry, Azure AI, Power Automate and AI Builder.
S trong knowledge of LLM orchestration, prompt engineering, RAG architectures and AI governance.
A solid software engineering background, ideally with .NET and API integration experience.
Experience with Azure Functions, Logic Apps, Azure OpenAI, Enate or similar orchestration platforms would be advantageous.
This is an opportunity to work on genuinely transformative AI initiatives rather than isolated proof of concepts.

If you're passionate about combining hands on engineering with leadership within a regulated industry and want to be at the forefront of enterprise AI I'd love to have a chat!
