You will report directly to the CTO and work closely with strategy and sales teams across every stage of the pre-sales journey. The role What you'll deliver 1. Build proof of concepts that win clients Take a brief from the strategy team and independently design, architect, and build a working POC within a 3-4 week sprint. Translate real client problems (surfaced through Launchpad engagements) into credible, demonstrable AI-powered solutions. Ensure every POC communicates the &above point of view: what we believe, what we can do, and what the solution could become. Maintain a high output velocity using AI-assisted development tooling - you are the 10 engineer. 2. Own the client-facing technical narrative Prepare and support all technical resources for sales calls: demos, slide narratives, technical Q&A docs, and deep-dive presentations. Join first calls, technical discovery sessions, and demo calls to provide credible technical support to the salesperson. Translate complex AI and engineering concepts into clear commercial language for Product, Marketing, and Sales VP stakeholders. Build confidence in the client that &above can deliver - not just pitch. 3.

Maintain and evolve a library of reusable repo templates, demo environments, and slide narratives so each POC builds on the last. Document technical shortcuts explicitly so they can be tracked and addressed in future delivery phases. Define and refine the repeatable process for scoping, building, and presenting a POC. 4. Stay at the frontier of AI and shape our offering Maintain a close watch on the AI landscape: new models, tools, frameworks, and use cases. Proactively suggest new POC formats, tooling improvements, and solution patterns that keep &above ahead of the market. Feed insights back into the strategy and sales teams to sharpen how we position our capabilities. 5. Be a reliable, autonomous operator Manage your own time and priorities across concurrent POC sprints with minimal overhead.

What we're looking for Must have Senior or lead-level engineering experience, with a proven track record of shipping production-quality work independently. Full-stack capability: strong React / TypeScript frontend fundamentals with solid backend experience (language is not a constraint). Practical, hands-on knowledge of AI application development: LLMs, RAG architectures, AI agents, and evaluation approaches. Excellent client-facing communication skills - comfortable in a room with VP-level stakeholders, able to translate technical depth into commercial clarity. A 50/50 builder-communicator profile: no trade-off between engineering quality and presentation quality. Demonstrable ability to ship fast and make pragmatic architectural decisions under time pressure. Comfortable working solo, managing time independently, and operating with minimal direction. Nice to have Previous founder experience, or a background operating as a one-person engineering function. Experience in a product studio, agency, or consultancy working across multiple clients and problem domains. Familiarity with a broad range of AI tooling, model providers, and deployment approaches.

We are partnering with a long-established, internationally active engineering and manufacturing business to appoint a Global Head of IT. This is a newly created role at a particularly important stage in the company s development. The business has grown successfully over many years through a highly entrepreneurial, family-owned culture and today operates across multiple international locations. As it continues to evolve as a global group, it is looking to bring in a modern IT leader who can help shape a more connected, scalable and secure future. The opportunity will suit someone who enjoys building and modernising. The business has strong foundations, but its technology environment reflects a more decentralised journey of growth. Different sites have historically operated with a high degree of independence, systems maturity varies across the group, and there is a clear need to introduce more modern best practice in areas such as cloud, cyber security, infrastructure, governance and systems strategy. Reporting to the CEO, the Global Head of IT will lead the development and delivery of the company s IT roadmap across infrastructure, cyber security, enterprise systems and team capability. The brief is centred around three broad themes: cloud first, security first and group first. Key areas of focus will include: developing and executing a global IT strategy moving the organisation towards a more modern cloud-led environment improving Microsoft 365 maturity, governance and security strengthening cyber capability and driving frameworks such as Cyber Essentials and ISO 27001 bringing greater consistency and connectivity across international sites assessing and shaping a longer-term ERP / CRM / systems strategy developing the IT team and helping define the right future structure for the function This is not a steady-state IT leadership role. It is a transformation brief for someone who can combine strong technical leadership with stakeholder influence, change management and commercial pragmatism. The ideal candidate will bring experience from a multi-site or international business environment and will be comfortable operating in organisations that are moving from a more entrepreneurial, decentralised model towards a more mature group structure. Experience within engineering, manufacturing, industrial or service-led settings would be highly relevant, and an MSP background could also be of interest where it has built strong capability in governance, infrastructure, cyber and service best practice. This is an excellent opportunity to join a values-led global business where the right person will have the chance to make a genuine impact on the next stage of its evolution.
