Software Engineer - Defence Technology 60,000 - 85,000 DOE Southampton - Hybrid Security Clearable Are you a software engineer who wants your work to genuinely matter? We're looking for a passionate software engineer to join a high-performing team tackling some of the most technically demanding challenges in the defence sector. This isn't about maintaining legacy systems or shipping incremental updates - it's about building cutting-edge capability that operates at the edge, in the field, and under pressure. The Role You'll be part of a team delivering software solutions that leverage the latest in machine learning, edge compute, and DevOps automation. Think rapid capability deployment, deployed hardware environments, sensors, and robotics - the kind of engineering problems that push you to grow. You'll own code releases and deployments, support operational systems, and collaborate across disciplines to drive agile best practice into real-world solutions. What You'll Be Doing You'll work closely with product owners and fellow engineers across the full delivery lifecycle - from architecture discussions to production deployments. Day to day, that means contributing to agile ceremonies (Scrum, Kanban or SAFe), participating in code reviews, working with quality engineers to uphold high standards, and troubleshooting operational systems when it counts. This is a collaborative, technically ambitious environment where your voice matters and your ideas get heard. What We're Looking For You'll have a degree in a STEM subject, or equivalent practical experience. Beyond that, we're interested in engineers who are curious, proactive, and genuinely energised by solving hard problems. You'll be familiar with some combination of the following - we don't expect expertise across everything, but we do want depth in some areas and a hunger to learn the rest. Languages: Python, Java, Rust, or JavaScript Cloud: AWS (primary), with Azure or GCP experience a bonus Containerisation & Virtualisation: Docker or Podman, Kubernetes, and ideally some exposure to GPU containerisation (NVIDIA Container Toolkit, Run:AI) Architecture: Microservices, serverless, edge compute, RESTful APIs, Protobuf/gRPC, and stream-based pub/sub systems including Kafka and MQTT DevSecOps: Git, CI/CD pipelines (e.g. GitLab), Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Puppet, Ansible), and Linux shell scripting As important as the technical profile is the person behind it. You'll communicate clearly with colleagues at all levels, thrive in a team, and take ownership of your work with a solutions-first mindset. What's on Offer Alongside a competitive salary, you'll have access to a flexible benefits package spanning health and wellbeing, financial protection, and lifestyle perks. You'll join a genuinely inclusive organisation that invests in its people and its technology in equal measure - having doubled in size over the last four years, the growth here is real and the opportunities that come with it are too. There's also a thriving internal community of technical groups where engineers come together around shared interests, tools, and ideas. It's the kind of place where intellectual curiosity is encouraged, not just tolerated. This role requires the ability to obtain UK Security Clearance. If you're ready to work on problems that matter, with people who take pride in what they build, we'd love to hear from you.

AI Engineer Salary: up to £65,000 Location: UK based - Midlands preferred, but remote considered Type: Permanent I'm working with a growing fintech/scale-up that is building AI into a customer-facing product used within the affordability and financial services space. They already have an AI virtual assistant within the platform, but until now a lot of the specialist AI work has sat with an external partner. They've reached the point where they want to start bringing that capability in-house and are looking for someone who can help them build on what is already there. This is not a role for someone who wants to train their own LLM from scratch. It is more about taking existing LLMs and AI services, understanding how to use them properly, and building useful product features around them. The business is fairly open-minded on level. You might be a graduate with a year or two of experience, a Python developer who has started moving into AI, a Machine Learning Engineer, or a Data Scientist with stronger engineering habits. They are not expecting someone to have ten years of LLM experience, because realistically very few people do. What they do need is someone bright, practical and genuinely interested in building AI that works in the real world. You'll be working on the AI side of a product that helps users complete income and expenditure journeys. In simple terms, the customer can either fill in the form themselves, or interact with the virtual assistant, which helps capture and complete the information for them. That means the AI work has to fit into a wider software product. It needs to connect with the front end, work safely, be tested properly, and be built with security in mind from the start. The role will involve: Building and improving AI/LLM features using Python Creating quick proof of concepts to test ideas Taking the right ideas further into production Working with existing LLMs, APIs and AI services Thinking about guardrails, safety, hallucination risk and validation Building software in a secure way, particularly given the regulated nature of the product Supporting automated testing rather than treating testing as an afterthought Working in a DevOps environment where builds, releases and deployments are automated Understanding how the AI module fits into the wider product and customer journey The key things they are looking for are: Strong Python skills A good general understanding of LLMs Some exposure to GenAI, chatbots, NLP, RAG, prompt engineering or similar An interest in AI guardrails and responsible use of AI Good software engineering principles Awareness of security in modern development A willingness to test properly and automate where possible Some understanding of cloud platforms - Azure would be ideal, but AWS or GCP is fine The ability to learn quickly and work out the right way to use new technologies It would also be useful if you had experience with JavaScript, deep learning, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Azure OpenAI, OpenAI APIs or similar tools, but none of these are absolute requirements. This is probably best suited to someone who wants more ownership than they may get in a larger business. You'll be close to senior technology leadership, close to the product, and involved in shaping how AI is used rather than just being handed small pieces of work. The most important thing is mindset. They want someone who can build, test, learn quickly, and stay focused on why the feature is being built in the first place.

Software AI Engineer with solid understanding of how to build LLM based solutions is sought by a high growth FinTech with a hub in the Midlands. Working at the forefront of financial services AI innovation this Software AI Engineer will join a multi-disciplinary team that are turning ideas into production ready, market leading AI solutions. This role would suit a Software or Data Engineer with at least two years commercial experience in a broad range of technologies and a demonstratable passion for AI/ ML innovation who is looking for a truly collaborative, autonomous working environment with end to end project exposure. In return this Software AI Engineer can expect excellent career development and training opportunities within a market leading scale up This Software AI Engineer should have most of the following key skills: - A software engineering background - Python, JavaScript, Typescript node.js etc - General commercial LLM experience - Solid test driven development experience - Varied database exposure - PostgreSQL, MongoDB, CosmosDB - Cloud services exposure - Azure preferred but all considered - Very strong communication skills - Understanding of AI security guardrails - Experience working in a regulated or FinTech environment This Software AI Engineer will receive - Starting salary of between £65,000 - £70,000 base salary - Long term remote working - Extensive personal development scheme - 25 days holiday - Generous pension scheme - Truly autonomous, collaborative culture with extensive growth potential - Regular remuneration reviews So if you are a Software AI Engineer who wants to join a market leading business with innovation at its core please apply now to be considered Software AI Engineer Remote AI, machine learning, LLM, Python, PyTorch, Azure
