  • Workflow Development: Design and implement operational workflows and decision-support tools that improve how organisations operate day-to-day.
  • Applied AI & Analytics: Collaborate with specialists to integrate machine learning and advanced analytics into real-world systems.
  • Engineering Excellence: Write high-quality, maintainable code and contribute to scalable system design across the stack.
  • Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing: Support junior engineers, promote best practices, and contribute to internal capability development.
  • Client Partnership: Work closely with client teams, building trusted relationships and acting as a technical advisor throughout delivery.
  • Required Skills & Experience

    • Strong experience in software and data engineering, with proficiency in:
    • Python
    • SQL
    • TypeScript (or similar modern frontend/backend languages)
    • Solid understanding of:
    • Data pipelines and ETL processes
    • Workflow orchestration and system integration
    • Designing solutions in complex, regulated environments
    • Experience working with large-scale data platforms or decision-support systems (vendor-specific tools not required).
    • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
    • Interest in AI, machine learning, and emerging technologies, with practical application in production systems.

    Security Clearance (Essential)

    🚨 Active security clearance is a strict requirement for this role.

    Candidates must:
