As part of this growth, they are seeking a Senior AI Software Developer to help architect and deliver scalable AI-powered applications across the organisation.

In this role, you will design, develop and implement intelligent software solutions leveraging modern AI and machine learning technologies. You will work across the full software development lifecycle, building scalable backend services, integrating AI models and collaborating closely with product, engineering and business teams to translate complex requirements into production-ready solutions. Experience working with LLMs, Generative AI and AI‑assisted workflows will be highly valuable.

You will contribute to the development of cloud‑native applications using technologies such as Java/Python, APIs, containerisation and modern cloud platforms including Azure or AWS.
