A pioneering tech start-up working at the intersection of AI, transport, and geospatial data is seeking a Software Engineer with a strong foundation in real-time APIs and a passion for intelligent systems.
This is a rare opportunity to collaborate with one of the UK’s foremost academic experts in AI planning and scheduling, contributing to a transformative software platform being used to reimagine how transport systems are managed across the North of England.
If you're keen to work with cutting-edge AI, are comfortable navigating live data feeds, and want to help build smarter, more sustainable cities, then read on.
Your Role Will Involve:
* Developing real-time API integrations for ingesting and processing traffic signal feeds and other live transport data
* Supporting the evolution of a sophisticated AI planning engine built using PDDL+ and Prolog
* Working closely with a leading professor in AI planning to modularise and scale the current architecture
* Interfacing with public sector authorities and vehicle OEMs to ensure data integrity, usability, and responsiveness
* Contributing to a highly collaborative and mission-led tech team, blending cutting-edge research with real-world impact
* Strong experience designing and building real-time API systems – particularly involving transport or mobility data
* Knowledge of or willingness to learn PDDL+ and Prolog
* Familiarity with AI planning/scheduling systems or an academic interest in intelligent systems
* Background in Python and web development (e.g. Django/Flask, Node JS, React JS)
* Confident working with data from geospatial or traffic systems
* A 2:1 or above from university, plus 2+ years of professional software experience
* Excellent communication skills, especially when collaborating with technical and public sector partners
* An inclusive mindset – the team is actively seeking to improve diversity and welcomes applicants from underrepresented backgrounds
Why Join?
This is more than a job – it’s a chance to shape the future of urban mobility using advanced AI techniques. You’ll be joining an agile, close-knit company with a supportive culture and strong growth trajectory. There’s also a share scheme in place, meaning you’ll directly benefit from the company’s success.
