This AI Architect role is for someone who builds applied GenAI systems that ship and make a real difference. You’ll work directly with clients across sectors to design and deliver production-ready LLM-powered solutions, from rapid proof-of-concept through to scalable, secure deployment.

What You’ll Bring • Commercial experience building and deploying LLM-powered applications • Experience with RAG pipelines, embeddings, vector databases, and orchestration frameworks • Strong Python fundamentals and production system design experience • Cloud exposure (AWS, Azure or GCP) and modern containerised environments • Experience operating in consultancy, studio, or innovation-led environments • The ability to engage clients confidently and shape technical direction • You care about applied impact, not just model accuracy. • You’re comfortable navigating ambiguity and building solutions that work in the real world. What’s on Offer • Salary up to £130,000 (flex) depending on experience • Bonus and strong benefits structure • Hybrid working (London-based team) • Exposure to varied, complex AI problems across multiple industries • Real ownership of architecture decisions • A leading innovative consultancy culture that prioritises engineering quality over process theatre If you’re an AI Architect or ready to own Generative AI end-to-end and ship systems that make a real-world impact, this is your opportunity to lead applied AI solutions at leading businesses around the world.
