Do you want to be part of a growing AI Engineering team where you can shape solutions, experiment with new ideas and help others grow along the way?
As a Senior AI Engineer, you’ll play a key role within our Data and AI Practice, contributing to the design, development and delivery of AI-powered solutions for a range of secure and high-impact clients. You’ll work closely with other engineers, architects and stakeholders, getting involved from the early stages of projects through to delivery.

- Contributing to the development and delivery of AI solutions and AI agents, ensuring outcomes meet time, cost and quality expectations.
- Designing, building and improving autonomous and conversational agents using modern AI and agent-based architectures.
- Applying robust engineering practices to reduce technical risk and manage technical debt in AI and agent-based systems.
- Exploring and applying emerging AI technologies, frameworks and best practices to deliver innovative solutions.
- Supporting the deployment of scalable and reliable AI solutions using cloud-native engineering approaches.
- Sharing knowledge, mentoring colleagues and contributing positively to the wider AI Engineering community.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
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
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you’ll bring:
- A strong understanding of AI, machine learning and agent-based AI concepts, including Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), multi-agent systems and conversational agents.
- Experience developing AI solutions using programming languages such as Python, or similar languages used in AI engineering.
- Hands-on experience with AI and agent frameworks such as Microsoft Copilot, Copilot Studio, Autogen Agents, Amazon Q, LangChain, LangGraph or similar platforms.
- The ability to analyse, evaluate and optimise agent behaviour and AI system performance.
- Experience delivering solutions using cloud platforms and cloud-native delivery techniques.
- Experience measuring, validating and proving the effectiveness of AI systems in real-world environments.
It would be great if you had:
- Exposure to low-code or no-code automation and orchestration tools used alongside AI solutions.
- Experience working in secure or regulated environments.
