London (Hybrid) · £80,000–£100,000
Everyone in AI is obsessed with the models. We're hiring on behalf of a London-based, Techstars-backed generative AI company building the layer everyone else depends on and nobody else is building properly: rights-cleared, human-generated training data for multimodal AI — video, speech, and music. The "data backbone for Gen AI." This is a five-person, backend-heavy engineering team at the point where enterprise delivery is accelerating faster than they can build.
They need a fullstack engineer who can lead workstreams, bring real frontend depth, and own problems end-to-end:
- Own development end-to-end: build, test, monitor, debug, and tune performance
- Help scale engineering practices as the team grows
Requirements:
- 3–5 years as a fullstack engineer, in a startup or scale-up
- Strong Python backend — Django, or a framework that transfers directly
- Solid React frontend — the team is backend-heavy, so frontend depth is genuinely valuable
- A demonstrable build track record — GitHub or a portfolio of things you've actually shipped
- Cloud / DevOps depth on any major cloud (AWS today, GCP migration imminent)
- Training-data or data-labelling experience — heavily weighted
- Data engineering and data structuring (more important than the music/media domain itself)
- Production at real scale, and genuinely novel scaling problems in multimedia and training data.
Location: London, hybrid and flexible by definition.
Stack: Python · Django · React · Redis · PostgreSQL · AWS→GCP · Kubernetes
