Founding AI Engineer

Senior AI Engineer London - hybrid (2-3 days in office) £160-175k, plus performance bonus A leading growth equity firm investing in enterprise technology businesses across the UK and Europe is hiring a Senior AI Engineer - an elite, hands-on developer who will play a foundational role in shaping how AI is used across the investment lifecycle. As the sole AI Engineer, you will have responsibility for E2E delivery (yes, including all development + implementation), and the chance to build from a blank slate, shaping the firms AI capability, including sourcing, research, diligence, and workflows.

Importantly, you will have worked in high-context environments where engineers work directly with end users to deliver real-world AI systems - define the technical stack, set the roadmap, and own the end-to-end delivery of internal AI systems. This is a highly autonomous architect-led role with significant responsibility and the freedom to experiment, iterate, and drive impact quickly. Youll move fluidly between rapid prototyping and production rigor, applying technical creativity to commercial decision-making.
