Job Description

Summary:

A tech-focused market-maker with groundbreaking success in the high frequency trading space, my client is seeking a highly skilled, creative problem-solver to be their next hands-on AI Engineer in a dynamic team.

This role offers the opportunity to own the full lifecycle - from rapid prototyping through production rollout - as you design, build, and deploy robust AI agents using Python, integrating AI solutions with existing enterprise systems. As such, this will include working closely with cross-functional teams to understand user needs and deliver effective agents, as well as developing a platform to evaluate those agents.

You'll be expected to produce high quality, unit-tested code and uphold consistent style and documentation through code reviews & CI/CD practices. In return, you'll enjoy a relaxed culture working alongside some of the best professionals in the industry from over 50 countries.

Requirements:

  • Deep-level knowledge of Python 3.x, including advanced features (asyncio, type hints, context managers)
  • Strong understanding of software design patterns, OO design, & modular architecture
  • Excellent knowledge of Python, common AI/ML libraries & third-party integration
  • Some commercial or open-source experience in developing AI agents with any of the well-known services
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, AI, or related field

Benefits:
  • Incredible salary + performance-based bonus structure
  • Truly flat structure and highly collaborative culture, within a fun, stimulating office environment
  • Outstanding benefits package, including paid commuting expenses, extensive office perks, generous holiday allowance, etc.
  • Relocation available & visa sponsorship where necessary


Whilst we carefully review all applications, to all jobs, due to the high volume of applications we receive it is not possible to respond to those who have not been successful.
