About Nyxium
Nyxium is a London-based deep tech company backed by top-tier investors. We are building an agentic AI and geospatial intelligence platform that supports siting, permitting, impact assessment, and decision-making for complex infrastructure projects, including energy systems, data centers, and other critical infrastructure.
Location
London
Right to work in the UK required (visa sponsorship considered on a case-by-case basis)
Time Commitment & Working Arrangement
This is a full-time position (40 hours per week).
The role requires focused, dedicated commitment to Nyxium.
External paid work, consulting, or freelance engagements outside Nyxium are not permitted during employment.
Any academic affiliations, advisory roles, or unpaid activities must be disclosed and must not conflict with Nyxium’s work, priorities, or intellectual property.
We value sustainable working practices and do not expect routine overtime, but we do expect full professional focus during agreed working hours.
Role Summary
We are hiring a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer (AI / ML) to build and own Nyxium’s core application and ML integration layer.
This role sits between:
- AI and ML systems (LLMs, NLP pipelines, decision logic)
- Backend services and APIs
- Data and document workflows
- User-facing analytical and operational tooling
You will work directly with the founders and the Geospatial AI Engineer to turn advanced AI and spatial intelligence into robust, production-grade software that real teams depend on.
This is a senior individual contributor role with strong architectural ownership.
Key Responsibilities
AI-Enabled Backend Systems
- Design and build backend services that integrate AI and ML workflows into production systems
- Develop APIs and orchestration layers
- Ensure AI outputs are traceable, explainable, and suitable for audit and regulatory review
- Develop Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and LLM-based pipelines for data imputation, NLP analysis, and decision support.
Document, Workflow & Platform Intelligence
- Build systems that process, normalize, classify, and enrich large volumes of structured and unstructured documents
- Implement intelligent workflows for:
- Regulatory documentation
- Compliance evidence tracking
- Developer and user automation
- Design pipelines that balance ML-driven inference with deterministic rules and safeguards
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
