🚀 Hiring: AI Engineer (LLMs | Product-Focused | London, Paddington)
I’m partnering with a fast-growing, heavily funded startup that’s redefining how care providers operate through AI. Backed by $20M in Series A funding and scaling quickly, they’re building an AI-powered platform used across healthcare environments to replace fragmented systems and manual processes.
This is a unique opportunity to join early, working directly with the Head of AI to take ownership of engineering and help shape the future of the AI function.
🧠 What you’ll be working on
You’ll play a key role across two core product areas:
- A day-to-day operating hub that helps professionals make better, faster decisions
- A research-focused platform, leveraging labs, imaging, and structured/unstructured medical data to drive insights
Example challenges include:
- Building AI agents to handle calls and schedule appointments
- Creating systems to generate and structure clinical notes from free text
- Using LLMs to reliably extract and standardise complex data
- Contributing to AI-powered features integrated directly into core workflows
⚙️ What they’re looking for
This is an engineering-led AI role, not ML research:
✅ ~5+ years in software engineering
✅ 2+ years hands-on with LLMs / applied AI
✅ Experience building 0→1 products in startup environments
✅ Strong backend focus (Python + TypeScript)
✅ Experience with frameworks like LangChain
✅ Comfortable owning systems end-to-end (design → build → deploy)
Bonus if you’ve touched frontend or worked closely with product teams.
💰 Package & benefits
- £100k + £20k equity
- Hybrid: 4 days/week in Paddington
- 25 days holiday + private healthcare
- Equity for all employees + strong benefits package
- Flexible remote working (2-3 weeks/year from anywhere)
⚡ Process (fast & focused)
- AI knowledge discussion
- Coding interview
- AI design challenge (real problem)
- Final with CTO
