London

The Role

As an Engineer in our newly established and rapidly growing AI team, you will build and operationalize high-value AI workflows across business use-cases, product integrations, and internal data intelligence (Data Lake). You will help extend our AI platform and shared services by delivering production-grade capabilities on our Azure infrastructure, integrating LLM functionality into reliable, secure, and observable systems, including scoped agent workflows that can be shipped, monitored, and iterated quickly.

Success in this position requires strong engineering fundamentals, an operational mindset, and the ability to work autonomously while partnering effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders across global teams.

  • Integrate AI capabilities into products and internal tools (LLM calls, tool/function calling, guardrails, evals, response structuring)
  • Design and implement scoped agent workflows with clear boundaries, tools, permissions, fallbacks, and measurable outcomes
  • Collaborate with vendors to deliver ROI-focused use-cases: define interfaces, validate delivery quality, and productionize outputs
  • Establish strong observability: structured logging, tracing, metrics, dashboards, alerting, and runbooks
  • Partner with data teams on Data Lake access patterns, workflows, metadata, governance, and reliability

Essential Skills & Experience

  • 5-10 years professional software engineering experience; strong Python (services, APIs, testing)
  • Cloud infrastructure experience (Azure preferred), operating production systems; cloud security fluency (identity, RBAC, secrets management, logging/auditing)
  • CI/CD experience (Git-based pipelines, automated tests, deployment gates, rollback awareness)
  • Strong testing, documentation, and operational discipline

 Preferred skills & Experience  

  • Data engineering fundamentals (schemas, pipelines, quality checks) within governed environments
  • Infrastructure as Code (Bicep/Terraform), containerization (Docker), and API management patterns
  • Agentic patterns (tool use, orchestration, state management) and practical guardrails
  • Microsoft Graph and/or strong enterprise identity/API permissioning patterns

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
