AI / ML / CV Software Engineer in London

About Antare

Do you want to join the (very) early stages of a technology company that’s got huge ambition and vision, as well as the backing to make it happen? At Antare, we’re utilising our industry knowledge to create innovative products that we believe will disrupt the market. This is a complete greenfield opportunity to be part of a product roadmap from day one, the rest remains in stealth. The team founded Antare in 2024 comprising product designers and engineers - some of whom have worked together for over 15 years. Together, the companies we have built have been collectively acquired for billions of dollars: we have a genuine level of success under our belts that you could help to contribute to. Today, we’re a small, hands‑on team spanning product design, finance, hardware, and software engineering.

What we can offer you

This is a rare chance to join a startup at the very beginning - where your curiosity, ideas, and input will directly influence the product roadmap. You’ll be working closely with a small, experienced engineering team, building real features in a modern frontend codebase from day one. We care deeply about helping early‑career engineers grow fast and with confidence. You’ll benefit from hands‑on mentorship, regular feedback, and the chance to pair with engineers who’ve built products at scale. It’s a high‑trust, low‑ego environment designed to help you accelerate your skills while contributing meaningfully. We’re using modern technology stacks across our infrastructure and frontend, and AI‑assisted tooling to move fast and stay focused - and you’ll be an integral part of shaping both the user experience and the engineering foundations as we scale.

Role Overview

As an AI / ML Software Engineer, you will be designing and implementing modern, scalable and high‑performance artificial intelligence and machine learning functionality in our solution. You’ll join a small and growing R&D team focused on building ambitious new products from the ground up. You’ll work on real product features, contribute to design and development decisions, and grow your technical skillset by collaborating with a supportive team of experienced engineers.

Some of the technologies we use, and day‑to‑day tasks include developing with:

• Generative AI systems such as OpenAI, Claude, etc.
• Prompt engineering for media intelligence, including video understanding and summarisation
• Cloud based audio processing systems
• Audio transcription, sentiment analysis, emotion evaluation
• Building scalable and efficient cloud‑native infrastructure for processing, streaming, and analysing audio
• Anomaly detection machine learning libraries
• Utilizing unsupervised and semi‑supervised techniques to identify anomalies, detect unusual patterns, and cluster behaviours in audio and video data.
• Edge ML / detection models for audio and video applications with real‑time constraints
• Computer vision, object detection, facial recognition
• Audio processing and understanding, event detection
• Security incident generation and alert escalation

What we’re looking for

• Ability to investigate, debug, and select the correct machine learning algorithms or AI approach depending on the features criteria and functionality.
• Between 2 and 5 years of commercial or equivalent experience in a software development role building machine learning solutions and artificial intelligence integrations, either on embedded devices or cloud‑driven SAAS products.
• Experience with embedded languages such as C/C++ and Golang.
• Full stack experience with other languages and frameworks (e.g. React, Vue, iOS, Android) is a plus, but not required.
• Experience with Python machine learning and AI libraries.
• Ability to collect, organise, and interpret data to guide decisions.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and ability to work in a fast‑paced startup environment.
• Excellent communication and collaboration abilities.
• A solid academic background, ideally from a leading University with top marks in either Computer Science or STEM subjects demonstrating a passion for software development, coding and technology.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to define and deliver new features against tight milestones.
• Optimize code for performance, scale, reliability, and maintainability.
• Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.

Ideally, you’ll have some experience with one or more of the technologies we use. That said, we don’t expect you to know everything already — we’re happy to support your learning on the job. We believe that diverse perspectives make better products, and we strongly encourage people from underrepresented backgrounds in tech to apply. If you’re unsure whether you meet every requirement, please still reach out - we’d love to hear from you.

Why Antare

Join Antare in London and contribute to a team that’s creating the next generation of innovative products. We offer a competitive salary, equity options, and healthcare, along with the opportunity to build a product that makes a real impact. While we offer some flexibility, we’re primarily an in‑person team (4‑5 days per week) - at this stage of the company, we’ve found that collaboration and ideation happen faster and more naturally when we’re in the same room.
