AI Engineer
AI/ML Engineer
- Location: London (hybrid – 2 days per week in office)
- Type: Permanent
- Salary: £65,000 – £80,000 + EMI share options
- Interview Process: 3 stages
We're hiring an AI/ML Engineer for a fast-growing data and AI consultancy working across financial services, private equity, retail, asset management, and the public sector. This is a new role driven by increased project demand; you won't be joining a team that's standing still. Engineers here typically say they learn more in a year than anywhere else they've worked, and the project mix backs that up: satellite image analysis, pharma auditing copilots, government deepfake detection, and more.
You'll join a 12-person engineering team and work across the full lifecycle - from fast POCs through to production-grade systems in regulated environments. There's a hard start date on an upcoming project, so we're moving quickly.
About you
- At least 2 years of experience in AI engineering, ML engineering, or a closely related data science role
- Hands-on production experience with LLMs
- Strong understanding of RAG, embeddings, context engineering, and agentic frameworks
- Experience with evals and model monitoring in live environments
- Comfortable with Azure, LangChain, and modern MLOps practices
- Solid Python and the engineering discipline to write clean, testable, version-controlled code
- Clear communicator - you can explain models and trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders
- SC clearance eligibility (UK 5-year residency) is a plus - not required now but may be needed for certain government projects
What's on offer
- £65,000 – £80,000 base salary
- EMI share options
- £6,000 annual training and conference allowance
- Matched pension up to 6%
- Private healthcare (Vitality)
- 25 days holiday + bank holidays (buy or sell up to 5)
- Work abroad up to one month per year
- Cycle-to-work scheme
- Central London office with regular socials
