Engineering Manager - AI Agents & Platform in London

Engineering Manager – AI Agents & Platform
This is not a traditional Engineering Manager role. If you don\’t actively use AI tools to build, test and ship software, this won\’t be a fit. If you do…keep reading.

We\’re leading the search for an Engineering Manager for a fast‐growing AI‐native company building production‐grade AI agents used by real customers, at real scale.

This role sits at the intersection of engineering, AI systems, and customer outcomes. You\’ll lead engineers, but you\’ll also build, deploy, and own what ships.

What makes this different

Lead teams building and deploying AI agents in production

Own customer outcomes (automation rates, reliability, quality)

Make architectural calls across agents, workflows, integrations and evals

Turn real‐world deployment learnings into platform improvements

Work directly with customers, product and leadership

You\’ll still write code (perhaps with the help of Claude code/Cursor).

AI skills are a requirement
You don\’t need to be an AI researcher, but you do need or want to be AI‐native.

Ideally you would:

Be comfortable building with modern AI tooling (Claude Code, LLMs, agents)

Use AI as part of your daily development workflow

Understand how agents behave in production (evals, failure modes, reliability)

You\’ll thrive there if you

Are deeply technical and outcome‐driven

Enjoy ambiguity and ownership

Think like a founder, not a caretaker

Care more about impact than process

Why do people enjoy this role

Real ownership, real impact

AI at the core, not a side project

Competitive salary + equity

Fully remote (UK/EU)
