Job Description
You will join a lean, high-impact strategy team to build the internal AI systems that will transform how this publicly listed technology group operates. From automating service desks to building M&A integration tools, you will ship production-ready Python applications that turn organizational data into a structured, actionable knowledge layer.
Why this role is remarkable
* Ship at startup speed with the capital and stable platform of a publicly listed technology business.
* Full ownership of the tech stack including unlimited access to frontier models and modern AI coding tools like Claude Code and Cursor.
* Direct impact on the company's core strategy by building an \"organizational second brain\" using cutting-edge MCP and context engineering.
What You Will Do
* Rapidly prototype and ship internal AI applications that remove friction across sales, service desks, and M&A integrations.
* Build a structured knowledge layer using MCP servers and direct APIs to pull data from Snowflake, Zoho, and Microsoft 365.
* Implement robust LLM observability, evaluations, and security guardrails to run AI agents within a regulated environment.
The ideal candidate
* Strong software engineer proficient in production Python with hands‑on experience shipping RAG and agentic systems.
* Deeply familiar with context engineering and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to manage data at an organizational scale.
* A bias for action who already uses AI coding tools (Cursor, Codex) to accelerate their own development workflow.
