AI Solutions Engineer

Norwich (on-site, 5 days per week)

£40,000K – £55,000K per annum (depending on experience)

About the Role

My client are expanding and are looking for their first dedicated AI Solutions Engineer. This is a code-first role.

You will be designing and implementing custom AI-powered solutions by writing clean, production-ready code that integrates directly with APIs such as OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Whisper, and others.

Working across both technical infrastructure and customer-facing initiatives. This is a hands-on position where you’ll act as the sole AI expert, responsible for designing, building, and deploying the systems that define how they use AI.

Key Responsibilities

• Custom AI Development: Write backend code to integrate AI services into business workflows and customer-facing applications.
• API Integration: Build robust, secure integrations with third-party APIs (OpenAI, ElevenLabs, etc.) using backend languages.
• Prompt Engineering: Craft and refine prompts to achieve consistent, reliable AI outputs.
• System Design: Architect workflows and services that are maintainable, scalable, and secure.
• Deployment & Maintenance: Package and deploy solutions in production (Docker, AWS Lambda, serverless platforms, or equivalent).
• Cross-Department Collaboration: Work with IT on infrastructure and with Marketing to deliver AI-powered innovation in campaigns and customer experiences.
• Ownership: Act as their in-house AI expert, reporting directly to leadership and shaping the direction of AI within the business.

Essential Skills

• Strong backend development skills in Python, Node.js, or a similar language
• Proven experience with API consumption, authentication, and integration.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure).
• Ability to design and implement production-grade backend services.
• Solid understanding of software engineering practices: version control, testing, CI/CD, monitoring.
• Experience translating business needs into coded AI solutions.

Desirable Skills

• Familiarity with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar orchestration frameworks.
• Experience with speech and voice AI APIs (ElevenLabs, Whisper).
• Knowledge of chatbot/voicebot design for customer service or sales.
• DevOps experience (Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines).

What my client Offer

• Salary: £40,000 – £55,000 DOE.
• The opportunity to be the sole AI engineer, owning solutions from day one.
• Direct reporting to IT and Marketing leadership, giving broad influence.
• On-site role in Norwich, Monday–Friday.
• The chance to work on high-impact projects with immediate visibility.

Who This Role Suits

This is not a no-code automation job. It is for a developer who enjoys writing backend code to solve problems with AI. If you want ownership, visibility, and the chance to be the one who defines how a business applies AI in practice, this is your role.

Exciting opportunity to work in a fast paced environment and where you can really make a difference - I look forward to hearing from you!
