London - 1 day a week | Inside IR35

About The Role

You’ll join our AI Enablement team at Bauer Media Outdoor. This role is focused on designing, building and deploying AI enabled software solutions that are used across the organisation. You’ll work closely with Product Leads to shape and deliver real solutions, including building custom AI Assistants within our internal generative AI platform, Bauer AI Chat. You’ll be accountable for technical problem solving, system design, AI integration and delivering production quality code that creates clear business value. You can explore and experiment with new and emerging AI technology, building, shipping and owning practical, technical solutions to real business problems that are used in practice.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Write clean, well‑tested, production‑ready code while setting high standards and mentoring engineers in AI design and delivery.
  • Own system design, delivery, and evolution; resolve complex performance, scalability, and integration challenges.
  • Build and operate reliable infrastructure using practical DevOps and MLOps practices to monitor, optimize, and improve production AI solutions.
  • Communicate technical decisions clearly to non‑technical stakeholders and ensure smooth user experiences.

What You’ll Bring To The Team

  • 6+ years of professional software engineering experience with strong backend expertise.
  • Strong proficiency in Python, with solid understanding of distributed systems, APIs, microservices, and secure software design.
  • Proven experience integrating AI/LLM‑based services into production; experience in ML or computer vision is beneficial but not essential.
  • Experience with DevOps/MLOps tooling (CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes, monitoring, logging) and comfort owning complex technical problems end‑to‑end.

We believe in fairness and as an equal opportunities employer we work hard to foster an inclusive environment, a place where you can truly be yourself and be treated fairly.
