We're looking for an AI Engineer to join a growing team focused on one thing: using artificial intelligence to make every part of the business smarter, faster and more effective. This isn't a customer product role. Instead, you'll be developing the internal AI tools, automations and intelligent workflows that improve operational excellence across the consultancy. From streamlining business processes and enhancing decision making to building AI-powered assistants that support consultants and clients alike, your work will have a direct impact on how the business operates every day. Working alongside AI Architects and Business Analysts, you'll design, build and deploy scalable AI solutions using Microsoft Azure, Python and React, helping shape the future of an AI-first organisation. What you'll be doing Building AI-powered internal applications and operational tools using Python and React. Designing intelligent workflows, agent-based solutions and prompt strategies to improve business processes. Developing cloud-native solutions across the Microsoft Azure platform. Integrating AI into existing systems through APIs and modern integration patterns. Collaborating with Solution Architects and Business Analysts to identify opportunities where AI can genuinely add value. Contributing to shared frameworks, reusable components and engineering best practice. What we're looking for You'll enjoy solving problems, questioning how things are done and using technology to improve the way people work. Ideally, you'll have experience with: Python software development. React or modern front-end frameworks. Microsoft Azure or another major cloud platform. APIs and systems integration. AI technologies such as LLMs, Azure OpenAI, prompt engineering or retrieval-based AI. Commercial AI experience is welcome, but we're equally interested in engineers who are actively building with AI outside of work and can demonstrate curiosity, initiative and a desire to learn. Why join? Build AI solutions that transform the way an ambitious consultancy operates. Work with modern AI technologies as part of your day-to-day role. Help shape internal platforms and engineering standards from an early stage. Collaborate with experienced AI specialists in a highly innovative environment. Join a culture that encourages experimentation, continuous learning and fresh thinking. See the direct impact of your work across the wider business. If you're excited by the opportunity to use AI to solve real operational challenges and help shape the future of an AI-driven consultancy, we'd love to hear from you.

hackajob is collaborating with OneAdvanced to connect them with exceptional professionals for this role. OneAdvanced serves customers who often have deeply embedded, on-premise or hosted systems that are integral to how they operate. This is a senior, customer-facing architecture role that goes well beyond traditional pre-sales. You will act as the bridge between customer strategy, core business processes, technology design, and service delivery - working alongside sales teams to help organisations modernise their enterprise landscapes. You will also play a meaningful role in how we approach this commercially - partnering with Revenue Enablement to shape the technical sales methodology we use across the business. Day to day Work closely with customers to understand their current-state systems, data flows, and key processes - and map these to the capabilities of our workflows/applications and platform services. Define integration and data flow strategies across internal and third-party systems, which may include ERP, HR, CRM, and risk and compliance platforms. Advise on master data management approaches with a platform-first mindset, reducing architectural complexity and technical debt. Assess customer data readiness for AI adoption - identifying quality, governance, and lineage gaps that need to be resolved before AI features can deliver meaningful value, and guiding customers through a pragmatic path to readiness. Help customers understand how AI and automation can be embedded within their workflows to improve decision-making and operational efficiency. Engage substantively with responsible AI and governance questions, particularly with buyers in regulated environments such as health, care, and government - covering explainability, auditability, bias, and data subject rights. Navigate sector-specific constraints - whether data residency and security requirements in health and care, procurement framework obligations in public sector, or operational integration demands in transport, logistics, and manufacturing - and design solutions that address these without compromising platform simplicity. Understand the outcome the customer is looking to achieve, and architect the solution to move them from their existing tech stack to IQ, the intelligent system of work for their given sector. Articulate how a move to OneAdvanced simplifies enterprise architecture - making the case clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Able to surface what is actually blocking a customer, not just what they say is blocking them. Confident challenging assumptions. Commercial awareness Understands the deal context. Can build a compelling total cost of ownership case and recognise when technical risk is genuine versus when it is customer anxiety in disguise. Methodology thinking Desirable - has contributed to or built technical sales playbooks - including qualification criteria and discovery documentation. Able to abstract patterns from deal experience and codify what good looks like. Cross-functional influence Comfortable working laterally without authority. Influences sellers, enablement, and Solutions colleagues through credibility and clear reasoning rather than hierarchy. Applied AI translation Able to move a customer from vague curiosity - or vague fear - about AI to a concrete, credible adoption roadmap.

Conversant in responsible AI, data readiness, and governance requirements, particularly in regulated environments. Sector expertise Desirable - experience working in the sectors we serve, and an understanding of some of the regulatory compliance our customer operate under. Beyond the job spec You stay current on platform evolution, competitor positioning, and sector trends. You are methodical under pressure. You do not cut corners on rigour when a deal gets complex or a timeline compresses. You are honest with customers helping them to see where something is a genuine challenge, or help them overcome perceived challenges.
