Hybrid | Financial Services | £450-£650 per day (inside IR35)
Build AI solutions that make a real impact.
We're working with a technology consultancy that's helping some of the biggest organisations in financial services modernise the way they operate through AI and intelligent automation.
They're investing heavily in this area and are looking for an experienced Python Engineer to play a key role in designing and delivering scalable automation solutions that solve genuine business problems-not just proof of concepts.

What you'll be working on
You'll be involved in developing intelligent automation solutions that streamline complex business processes using modern Python development practices and the latest advances in Generative AI.
Working alongside a highly technical team, you'll build APIs, integrate enterprise systems and develop AI-powered applications that are designed to operate reliably at scale.
This is a hands-on engineering role where you'll have the opportunity to influence technical decisions, contribute to solution design and help shape how AI is adopted across large-scale client environments.
We'd love to speak to you if you have experience with:
