Job Description

We’re partnered with a fast-scaling SaaS business building a sophisticated platform used by enterprise organisations to make smarter, data-led decisions across complex environments.

They’re now hiring a Senior / Principal Data / AI Engineer to help shape how intelligence is built into the product - from machine learning models through to emerging agentic workflows.

This is not a “pure research” role - it’s hands-on, product-focused, and ideal for someone who enjoys taking ideas from concept to production.

What You’ll Be Doing

Designing and building production-grade ML and data-driven features

Working closely with product and engineering to embed AI into real-world use cases

Developing and maintaining data pipelines and model workflows

Experimenting with and implementing agentic / autonomous AI workflows

Contributing across the stack where needed (APIs, services, integrations)

Improving performance, scalability, and reliability of AI systems

Tech & Environment

Core: Python (machine learning, data science, AI workflows)

AI/ML: Applied ML, data modelling, experimentation

Automation / Agents: Agentic workflows, orchestration tools (e.g. n8n or similar)

Data: Pipelines, transformation, structured data systems

Bonus Exposure: Java / backend systems, full-stack environments

What They’re Looking For

Strong commercial experience with Python in a data/AI/ML context

Proven track record of building real-world ML or AI-driven features (not just notebooks)

Experience working with data pipelines and production systems

Interest or hands-on exposure to agentic workflows / AI automation

Ability to work across teams and take ownership of end-to-end delivery

Nice to have

Experience working in a full-stack or backend-heavy environment

Exposure to Java-based systems

Background in complex SaaS or enterprise platforms

Why This Role?

Work on genuinely interesting AI problems, not just surface-level features

Opportunity to shape how AI is embedded into a growing product

Strong engineering culture with real ownership

Equity included as part of the package

Fully remote within the UK

If you’re building AI systems that actually get used, and want to push further into modern workflows like agents and automation, this is worth a conversation.

Apply directly or drop me a message for more details.
