Agentic Software EngineerLondon · Full-time · On-siteTL;DRAI is collapsing the time and effort required to turn ideas into working software. We're redesigning how we build around that — using agents across the software lifecycle and enabling more of our team to ship changes directly. We're hiring an experienced software engineer who is already pushing beyond task-by-task use of agents. This isn't a model-training role. We're focused on what happens around the models — engineering the systems that turn increasingly capable agents into a fundamentally different way of building software. Hult is a global business school that teaches a Computer Science for Business degree. How we build software, adopt new tools and think about automation feeds back into what we teach. We ship fast and iterate constantly. AI has already changed who can ship software here. You'll help us push that further — giving more of the team the tools, context and guardrails to turn ideas into production changes without engineering becoming the bottleneck. We're serious about discovering what AI-native engineering looks like in practice. When an agent fails or requires intervention, you'll ask what could change in the harness to prevent it next time. Push toward an autonomous software factory. Help work move from intent through planning, implementation, verification, deployment and observation with progressively less synchronous human intervention. Generating software is increasingly cheap; AI has already enabled more of our team to ship changes. What we're looking forStrong software engineering foundations. You have substantial production software engineering experience and the judgement to understand architecture, production systems and risk. You've materially changed how you work because of AI. You regularly delegate substantial engineering work and spend more of your time defining outcomes, providing context and designing verification than directing implementation step-by-step. Experience with particular languages or technologies matters much less to us than the ability to understand unfamiliar systems quickly. Experience building AI systems can also be highly relevant where the underlying problems transfer to agentic software engineering. We expect you may use AI to help with your application — we use it constantly too. Specifics matter much more than polished writing, and we'll use your answers as the starting point for the interview. If there's something that better demonstrates how you work — a project, repo, harness, experiment, write-up, demo, or anything else you think we'd find interesting — show us. We'd much rather see something real than read another paragraph about how passionate you are about AI.About the roleThis is a full-time, on-site role based at our Chelsea office in London, reporting to the Engineering Manager. We're trying to discover what software engineering looks like when implementation is no longer the primary constraint.
