The successful candidate will work across a broad range of challenges, including AI agents, workflow automation, data engineering, app development, market intelligence, ERP-related solutions and internal AI products that support consultants and clients alike.

You'll have the opportunity to influence technical decisions, shape how solutions are built and work directly alongside senior leaders responsible for growing the business.

What We're Looking For

Essential

  • Strong Python development skills
  • Experience working with GenAI / LLM technologies
  • Experience developing software applications rather than purely analysing data
  • Understanding of AI workflows, agent frameworks or automation tooling
  • Experience delivering real-world software solutions
  • Strong problem-solving ability
  • Excellent communication skills

Highly Desirable

  • AI Agents / Agentic AI experience
  • RAG architectures
  • Data engineering experience
  • Cloud platforms (Azure, AWS or GCP)
  • Modern application development experience
  • Consultancy or client-facing experience
  • Interest in emerging AI technologies

Who This Role Will Suit

This opportunity is ideal for someone who:

  • Enjoys variety and ownership
  • Likes solving ambiguous problems
  • Is naturally curious and proactive
  • Wants influence over the products they're building
  • Thrives in a fast-moving environment
  • Enjoys learning new technologies
  • Wants to help shape the future of a growing business
