Build the Infrastructure Behind AI-Augmented Engineering

Our long-term, a premier B&F; brand, has public CEO backing and the funding to drive software development output through harnessing GenAI dev tooling. They are committed to materially increasing engineering output over the next three years through GenAI-enabled tooling and workflow transformation. To achieve that, they are expanding a dedicated GenAI Developer Tooling team focused on building AI-powered platforms that integrate directly into the software development lifecycle. This is a rare chance to work on applied AI that directly impacts how software is built at scale.

The Team

This team operates across:

- Greenfield and brownfield GenAI tooling initiatives
- Workflow automation and internal platform engineering
- Direct collaboration with development teams to embed AI into real projects
- You will help design and implement the tools engineers rely on every day.

What You’ll Be Doing

- Building backend services in Go and/or Java (SpringBoot)
- Developing internal web tooling in TypeScript (React / Next.js)
- Integrating LLM APIs into structured engineering workflows
- Automating CI/CD and GitHub processes
- Building SDK and API integrations
- Optimising AI-driven workflows for performance and cost
- Contributing to experimentation, iteration and platform evolution
- Participating in incident response and continuous improvement

You will move ideas from prototype to production within a high-impact engineering environment.





What They’re Looking For

- Has solid backend engineering foundations
- Has worked in DevOps-driven environments
- Is comfortable with automation, CI/CD and integration patterns
- Has experimented with LLM APIs or AI tooling in meaningful ways
- Is curious about AI-native development practices
- Enjoys building internal platforms that improve engineering velocity
- You might have:
- Built personal AI side projects
- Integrated LLM APIs into applications
- Used AI IDE tooling extensively
- Automated repetitive development tasks

They are seeking engineers who view AI as a serious productivity layer, not a novelty.

Why This Role Is Exciting

This is not maintenance engineering. It is the opportunity to build the AI-enabled infrastructure that modern development teams will depend on. Very few organisations are investing in GenAI developer tooling at this scale and with this level of intent. If you want to work at the forefront of AI-augmented engineering, this is where it is being built.
