The Role

 We're hiring a senior engineer to build the AI platform powering intelligent agents at a well-funded startup. You'll own the orchestration engine, evaluation systems, and production infrastructure that enables AI to reason, plan and safely act across complex workflows.
This isn't a chatbot role. You're designing the foundations that future AI products will depend on.

What You'll Build
  • Core orchestration & runtime for agentic AI systems
  • Retrieval, grounding, and evaluation pipelines 
  • Memory and personalisation architectures
  • Production agents that operate reliably at scale across mission-critical workflows
  • Engineering patterns and best practices for AI across the company
What We're Looking For Essential:
  • Shipped production AI systems, agentic workflows, or LLM-powered products
  • Experience building AI infrastructure (orchestration, retrieval, evals, memory)
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals (TypeScript)
  • Can take ambiguous technical problems and drive them from concept to production
  • Excellent communication & technical judgment
Nice to have:
  • AI evaluation frameworks
  • Multi-agent systems
  • Production RAG architectures
  • AI observability & monitoring
  • Experience with systems under production load
Why This Matters You'll be working on systems where reliability, trust, and correctness genuinely matter. Your platform shapes how AI is built company-wide.
