Lead AI Engineer | Remote | Agentic AI
A well funded, fast growing software company has recently taken an AI powered product from concept into live production, used daily by a large and growing customer base.
They are now looking for a Lead AI Engineer to help build the next layer of agentic capability on top of it. This is a full stack engineering role with a strong AI lean, not a data science role.
What you'll own
- Design and build production grade AI and agentic systems that take real actions inside the platform, not internal tools or research prototypes
- Work across the full lifecycle, from design through deployment to what happens after release, including monitoring behaviour and handling edge cases once real users are relying on the system
- Contribute across backend, primarily with occasional frontend involvement
- Collaborate closely with data and platform engineers to keep AI features fed with the right data
- Iterate based on real usage patterns, adjusting or retraining as the system drifts or as user needs shift
What you'll bring
- Genuine experience shipping AI or agentic capability into a live production environment, not just building and evaluating models
- Solid engineering fundamentals, testing, code review, CI/CD, and a track record of maintaining systems after release, not just building them
- Experience with LLMs, RAG, or agent based systems is a strong plus
- Frontend exposure, React or similar, is useful but not essential
If interested, please apply with your most up-to-date CV & I'll be in touch.
