Solutions Engineer (AI Platforms)
At-a-Glance
- Mid-level engineering role deploying an AI platform into complex customer environments
- Integration, configuration and extension of a proprietary AI operating system
- Python, APIs, cloud infrastructure, LLM and agent tooling
- Strong mentoring from senior engineers and a clear route to senior
- Share options and a genuinely AI-first engineering culture
About the Company
My client is a UK technology company building an AI operating and orchestration layer that puts intelligent systems to work inside large, complex organisations where accuracy and accountability really matter. The platform is already live and in daily operational use with major customers. The engineering group is small, senior and unusually fast moving, with AI tooling built into how the team genuinely works rather than bolted on afterwards.
The Role
Getting a powerful AI platform to work inside a customer environment is a real engineering discipline, and this is a chance to learn it properly alongside people who already do it well. You will build integrations with customer data and systems, configure and extend the platform, and help make sure what goes live is robust and observable. You will have your own areas of ownership from early on, with senior engineers close by rather than looking over your shoulder. It suits someone a few solid years into their career who wants to get very good at AI engineering quickly.
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.
