UK Applied AI Solution Engineer
Tomoro Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom
Base pay range
£70,000 and £90,000 + EMIs*
About The Role
Applied AI solution engineers are expected to work in small teams of Tomoro and client engineers to design, build and deploy AI applications, such as agents built around Large Language Models. As your experience and expertise in the role grows, this may extend to leading these teams, owning solutions end‑to‑end and advising clients in this space. The typical applications we build use existing closed or open‑source foundational models, potentially with some fine tuning. We generally do not need to train our own foundational models from scratch.
Responsibilities
The examples describe the types of responsibilities AI solution engineers at Tomoro will have. We do not expect every successful candidate to have experience in all these areas. We encourage you to apply if the role excites you and you believe you can demonstrate a combination of the following capabilities.
Indicators you’ll be a good fit
* Building Microservices (including scalable data pipelines using frameworks like Spark)
* Data technologies (Python, SQL)
* Large language models, fine tuning (closed & open source, OpenAI API)
* Solution design (mainly data applications using Python, SQL and other allied tech stack)
* Analytical problem solving
Comfortable being client-facing
Our business is helping other businesses transform with AI. We cannot do that by looking inwards. Our Technical team is not behind the scenes, it is very much the front of house. We are proud of our technical expertise in this space, and it is primarily what our clients are buying. We need our technical staff to also be our client ambassadors, which includes:
* Communication & translation: Excellent communication skills to effectively interact with clients, understand their needs and explain complex AI concepts in an accessible manner
* Business acumen: Understanding of business processes and how AI solutions can be used to improve efficiency, reduce costs, or create new opportunities
Adaptable and self‑sufficient
As a growing, fast‑paced organisation, Tomoro offers significant opportunities for rapid growth for everyone in the team. In this stage of the business, we have limited capacity for handholding and need each team member to be able to operate independently and be flexible to work outside of their comfort zone.
Passionate and positive
Tomoro exists because we believe we can drive transformative change with AI across entire industries. Everyone in the team needs to share the passion for AI technology and its power for good.
Creative and curious
Staying at the forefront of the AI revolution requires everyone in the team to be aware of the latest developments in AI technology and innovating to find new ways to solve some of the hardest unsolved challenges in industry. Pro‑active self‑learning and openness to new ideas are essential.
Ethical and responsible
Our people are our greatest defence against the risks AI solutions can pose to individuals, organisations and society. Everyone in our team needs to show awareness of ethical considerations in AI, such as data privacy, bias in AI models, and the societal impact of AI technologies.
