The Role
Multiverse is the UK's largest apprenticeship provider and its first EdTech unicorn. The current state of AI presents a huge opportunity to reshape the future of education and workforce development. Multiverse is in a uniquely strong position to do that, and getting it right has implications beyond the company: for the UK tech sector and the broader economy. The AI Transformation team exists to make that real, starting with Multiverse itself. This is not a team that bolts AI onto the edges of the business or ships a handful of internal productivity tools. The mandate is bigger: to rebuild how the company actually works, function by function, and to establish the engineering practices that make Multiverse an AI-first company from the core out.
What You Will Do
- Own the architecture of our internal agentic operating system.
- Ship production AI agent systems.
- Design multi-agent coordination.
- Build the evaluation and quality infrastructure.
- Drive cost engineering.
- Build the integration layer that makes existing Multiverse systems agent-accessible.
- Set the standard.
- Mentor the team.
What We Are Looking For
- Production AI Agent Engineering experience.
- Product Thinking and Entrepreneurial Instinct.
- AI-Native Engineering.
- Full-Stack Delivery.
- Communication skills.
What Would Set You Apart
- Experience in EdTech, regulated content, or domains where AI output quality has compliance or accreditation implications.
- Background as a founding engineer or technical co-founder.
- Published thinking or external contributions in AI engineering.
- Experience designing platform layers that other teams build on.
What We Are Not Looking For
- Pure ML research without production engineering experience.
- Narrow specialism.
- People who need a detailed spec, a sprint plan, and a standup before they can write a line of code.
- Candidates whose experience is limited to wrapping LLM APIs in thin application layers.
- Engineers who optimise for technical elegance over user outcomes.
Benefits
- Time off - 27 days holiday, plus 5 additional days off.
- Health & Wellness - private medical Insurance with Bupa, a medical cashback scheme, life insurance, gym membership & wellness resources.
- Hybrid work offering.
- Work-from-anywhere scheme.
- Space to connect.
