We’re looking for someone rare.

Not a traditional developer.

Not someone who’s just “played around” with AI tools.

Someone who lives and breathes this space.

The opportunity

Everlinked is evolving.

We’ve spent nearly 20 years building trust in the manufacturing space through recruitment. Now, we’re seeing a clear shift:

Business owners know they need AI.

They don’t know where to start.

They don’t have anyone they trust to guide them.

We’re building that bridge.

We’re already working on real systems for clients — and this role is about helping us go all in.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll work directly with the founder to:

Design and build agentic AI systems for real-world business use

Turn commercial ideas into working applications quickly

Build internal tools to improve how we operate

Develop client-facing systems across multiple industries (primarily manufacturing)

Own and shape the technical direction of what we build

This isn’t theory.

This isn’t sandbox work.

You’ll be building systems that actually get used.

The type of person we’re looking for

You are:

Deeply curious — you’re constantly learning, testing, breaking, rebuilding

Technically sharp — comfortable with APIs, scripting, and system design

Obsessed with AI — this isn’t a trend to you, it’s your world

Commercially aware — you understand that the end goal is useful, working systems

Security-conscious — you think about how things hold up in the real world

Builder mindset — you’d rather ship something than talk about it

You’ve likely:

Studied something relevant (Computer Science, AI, etc.) or are self-taught to a high level

Spent serious time experimenting with LLMs, agents, automation tools

Built things — side projects, tools, systems — not just tutorials

Tech & tools (indicative, not exhaustive)

LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, open-source models)

Agent frameworks / autonomous workflows

Replit / cloud environments

APIs, integrations, data pipelines

Basic frontend/backend understanding

Security fundamentals

You don’t need to know everything — but you need to be able to figure anything out.

How we work

Office-based in Newquay

Fast-moving, low ego, high ownership

You’ll work across two businesses:

Building internal systems

Building client-facing AI solutions

This is a chance to be early in something that’s going to grow quickly.

Why this role is different

You won’t be:

Maintaining legacy code

Working in a slow corporate environment

Building things that never get used

You will be:

Shaping how real businesses adopt AI

Building systems from scratch

Working directly with decision-makers

Seeing your work deployed and making an impact

Final note

We don’t expect you to tick every box.

But we do expect:

Intelligence

Curiosity

Obsession with the space

If that sounds like you — we should talk

Where to Advertise Data Engineering Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising data engineering jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Data engineers occupy a distinct discipline that sits between software engineering, data science and cloud infrastructure — and the strongest candidates identify firmly with the data engineering community rather than with adjacent roles. General job boards consistently conflate data engineering with data analysis, data science and BI development, producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist pipeline and platform roles. This guide, published by DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data engineering roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Data Engineering Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving the Data Revolution

Data engineering is at the heart of the digital economy, transforming raw data into actionable insights, powering analytics, AI systems, and cloud infrastructure. As the UK and global markets continue to invest heavily in data platforms, pipelines, and real-time analytics, demand for skilled data engineers is growing rapidly. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk , the critical question is: which companies are expanding, hiring, and shaping the future of data-driven business? This article highlights new data engineering employers to watch in 2026, including UK startups, scale-ups, and international firms expanding in the UK.

How Many Data Engineering Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Engineering Job?

If you’re aiming for a career in data engineering, it can feel like you’re staring at a never-ending list of tools and technologies — SQL, Python, Spark, Kafka, Airflow, dbt, Snowflake, Redshift, Terraform, Kubernetes, and the list goes on. Scroll job boards and LinkedIn, and it’s easy to conclude that unless you have experience with every modern tool in the data stack, you won’t even get a callback. Here’s the honest truth most data engineering hiring managers will quietly agree with: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can solve real data problems with the tools you know. Tools matter. But only in service of outcomes. Jobs are won by candidates who know why a technology is used, when to use it, and how to explain their decisions. So how many data engineering tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is far fewer than you think — but you do need them in the right combination and order. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look capable and employable rather than overwhelmed.
