The Company – AI systems are only as reliable as the data and feedback loops behind them.

We’re partnering with a profitable, globally-used technology company building infrastructure that helps global organisations develop more reliable, trustworthy AI systems. Their platform supports teams working across research, healthcare, and enterprise environments – where accuracy, integrity, and real-world performance genuinely matter.

The business has been operating successfully for over a decade and is now scaling rapidly due to accelerating demand in AI. With strong product-market fit and significant growth ahead, they’re investing heavily in senior engineering talent to shape the next phase of the platform.

You’ll join a senior, product-focused engineering team working in small high performance teams building high-scale backend systems that sit at the core of the company’s platform.

This is a backend-first role (Python ≈70%) with meaningful influence across system design, architecture, and product direction.

You’ll operate with real ownership – balancing delivery speed, scalability, and long-term maintainability – while contributing to a platform that underpins critical AI-driven applications globally.
