Avanti Recruitment is working with a growing SaaS technology company to recruit a Mid-Level NLP Engineer to join a specialist team building and supporting production NLP and document-processing technology. This is a hands-on engineering role focused on improving how a live software platform extracts and processes information from complex documents. You will work closely with a Senior NLP Specialist, initially supporting the existing production environment and gradually taking ownership of larger features and new functionality.

What you'll be doing:

  • Developing and maintaining Python-based NLP and document-processing services
  • Extracting and processing information from Word documents, PDFs and unstructured text
  • Working with NLP techniques such as information extraction, classification, pattern matching and entity extraction
  • Investigating and resolving issues in a live production environment
  • Debugging, testing and releasing fixes
  • Contributing to new document-intelligence functionality
  • Working with modern LLM technology alongside more traditional NLP approaches

What we're looking for:

  • Strong commercial Python experience
  • Hands-on Natural Language Processing experience
  • Experience with document extraction or unstructured text
  • Experience working on live production software
  • Good understanding of debugging, testing and release processes
  • Experience with tools such as spaCy, NLTK, NER or equivalent NLP technologies

Useful but not essential:

  • LLM / Generative AI exposure
  • AWS
  • Elasticsearch / OpenSearch
  • OCR
  • C# / .NET
  • LegalTech, FinTech, RegTech or other document-heavy environments

This is not a research or proof-of-concept role. The team is looking for someone who enjoys applying NLP to real software used by real customers.

Salary: Up to £70,000

Location: Fully remote across the UK

If you have commercial Python and NLP experience and enjoy solving practical document-processing problems, please apply for further information.
