AI Engineer - Newcastle upon Tyne (On-site, Full-time)
Join a dynamic, forward-thinking organisation based in Newcastle City Centre as an AI Engineer, where you'll help shape and deliver next-generation AI solutions with real-world impact. This is a rare opportunity to be part of a newly formed, high-performance team building enterprise-grade AI from the ground up.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Designing, developing, and deploying AI/ML solutions using Python and modern ML frameworks.
- Building and fine-tuning Large Language Models (LLMs), working with embedding models and vector databases.
- Creating agentic workflows and tools that simulate decision-making in dynamic environments.
- Collaborating closely with product owners and business stakeholders to translate problems into scalable solutions.
- Implementing AI tools within a modern Azure cloud infrastructure (or similar).
- Supporting ongoing AI experimentation and driving continuous model improvement.
- Keeping up to date with research and innovations in AI, ML, NLP, and generative models.
What We're Looking For:
- Strong proficiency in Python and experience with ML frameworks (e.g. PyTorch, TensorFlow).
- Solid understanding of machine learning fundamentals, including supervised/unsupervised learning.
- Experience with cloud environments - ideally Azure, but AWS or GCP also considered.
- Familiarity with LLMs, prompt engineering, and vector databases (e.g. Pinecone, FAISS).
- Practical experience building production-ready AI applications.
- Ability to work on-site in Newcastle in a collaborative, agile environment.
- A curious mindset, eagerness to learn, and a genuine interest in AI's practical applications.
What's on Offer:

- Collaborative, non-corporate culture with strong autonomy and responsibility.
- A workplace committed to innovation, experimentation, and fast learning.
- Competitive salary and benefits package tailored to experience.
If you're excited by the idea of building real-world AI tools from scratch and want to be at the forefront of applied AI, we'd love to hear from you.
