In this role, you'll design, build, and deploy AI-driven solutions that enhance operational efficiency and support sales performance. Working closely with Engineering, SRE, and business stakeholders, you'll translate real business problems into scalable, production-ready AI solutions. This is a hands-on role where your work will directly contribute to embedding AI capabilities across core platforms.

Key responsibilities

• Deliver end-to-end AI solutions that improve operational and sales efficiency, integrating them across core systems.
• Develop agentic workflows and autonomous components using Python, Langflow, and modern AI tooling.
• Own the full solution lifecycle, from requirements gathering and stakeholder engagement through to design, testing, and deployment.
• Embed AI-driven components into existing applications to enhance functionality and user experience.
• Manage and optimise AI infrastructure, including specialised Kubernetes nodes and model orchestration environments, in partnership with SRE and Platform teams.
• Apply best practices across testing, documentation, and monitoring to ensure reliable, high-performing solutions.
• Stay up to date with emerging AI trends and tools to continuously improve internal capabilities.

About you

• A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
• 2+ years' experience in Python development, with a strong track record of building and delivering production-ready applications.
• Hands-on experience developing and deploying AI solutions (e.g. LLM orchestration, RAG, or AI agents).
• Strong understanding of modern AI tooling and orchestration frameworks, including agentic systems and RAG techniques.
• Experience working with cloud infrastructure (preferably AWS), with exposure to Terraform and Kubernetes.
• Familiarity with Docker and Kubernetes for deploying and scaling workloads.
• Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate business needs into practical, maintainable technical solutions.
• Working knowledge of machine learning principles (desirable), particularly in implementation and integration.
• A collaborative mindset, with the ability to work cross-functionally with engineering, product, and business teams.

Life at Plenti includes flexible working, volunteer and study leave, monthly social events, office snacks, company Townhalls, and D&I initiatives.
