Lead Full Stack Engineer | Incubator for AI (i.AI)
Want to build AI products that improve public services used by millions?
At i.AI, we build AI products inside the UK Government across health, education, planning and Parliament. Small teams. Startup pace. National-scale impact.
We're looking for a Lead Full Stack Engineer who can own technical direction, shape product strategy alongside product managers, mentor and grow engineers, and stay close enough to the code to tackle the toughest challenges themselves.
You'll work in a high-autonomy environment where teams move quickly, make decisions close to the problem, and focus on delivering real outcomes for users. Our engineers work across the full stack, from user-facing products and APIs to infrastructure, data layers and AI integrations.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
