Make an Impact at RSM UK
Our Tax Technology team is dynamic, fast-paced and mission driven. We are building a specialist AI engineering capability within our internal tax technology function to design and deliver AI-powered agents, automated workflows, and scalable integrations across enterprise platforms. The AI Automation Engineer role sits at the intersection of applied AI, software engineering, and automation. You will build and implement production-grade AI systems, develop workflow automations, and contribute to reusable engineering components that support enterprise-scale deployment.
This is a hands-on engineering role focused on delivering working systems into production within a governed enterprise environment. You will see your work used quickly in real operations, with AI tools and automation adopted directly by internal tax teams. The focus is on delivering high-impact solutions, implementing defined patterns, and iterating based on real-world usage.
You will make an impact by:
- Designing and building AI agents and multi-step workflows for internal tax use cases
- Developing Python-based services and automation pipelines for production use
- Integrating AI systems with internal platforms using APIs and event-driven architectures
- Implement workflows across Copilot Studio, Azure AI / Foundry, and internal systems
- Build and extend reusable components such as connectors, tools, and agent capabilities
- Support implementation of CI/CD pipelines for reliable deployment and versioning
- Ensure solutions are scalable, observable, and maintainable in enterprise environments
- Contribute to engineering standards and best practices defined by senior engineers
- Participate in technical design and code reviews
- Collaborate with internal tax technologists to translate defined requirements into technical solutions
