WeDo is partnering with a high growth AI startup building an agentic AI platform designed to solve complex, real world problems across global enterprise operations. The business is at an exciting stage of its journey. The foundations are in place, customers are using the technology, and the engineering team is now scaling both the platform and the systems behind it.

They're looking for a Senior Backend Engineer who wants to be close to the product, customers and technical decisions rather than owning a small component within a much larger organisation. You'll be joining a highly technical engineering team and working on problems across AI, distributed systems, enterprise data and performance engineering. This is a hands on role with genuine ownership. You'll help determine how the platform evolves as usage, customers and data volumes continue to grow.

Responsibilities:

  • Design and build high performance backend services primarily in Python
  • Build scalable distributed systems and APIs
  • Develop pipelines capable of processing large volumes of complex enterprise data
  • Integrate with external APIs
