Software Engineer - High-Growth AI Company

Software Engineers  – Near Cambridge

My client, a fast-growing AI company near Cambridge, is seeking talented Software Engineers to join a small but rapidly expanding development team. This is an exceptional opportunity to work across a wide variety of projects-from early-stage prototypes to fully developed products- helping to shape new technologies that solve complex, real-world challenges.

First and foremost, our client cares far more about intellect, aptitude, attitude, and problem-solving ability than specific knowledge or years of experience. The right people can learn new languages, frameworks, and technologies quickly, so experience is a bonus, not a requirement.

That said, the team currently uses many tools you might expect in a cutting-edge tech environment: Python, C++, JavaScript, React, OpenCV, TensorFlow, Torch, and others.

They always choose the right tool for the job, not the other way around-so technologies may evolve as products and capabilities grow.

If you are smart, curious, adaptable, and love solving difficult problems, this role is an excellent fit.

Key Responsibilities

• Designing and developing software for both prototype systems and production-grade products
• Working across multiple projects simultaneously and adapting to varied technical challenges
• Collaborating with multidisciplinary engineers to integrate software with hardware, sensors, and complex systems
• Rapidly learning and applying new technologies, tools, and approaches
• Contributing to problem-solving throughout the entire development lifecycle
• Supporting software used to control hardware platforms, custom devices, or sensor systems

Requirements

• Strong academic background (2:1 or above) in a STEM discipline
• (Computer Science, Physics, Engineering, Mathematics, etc.)
• Demonstrated ability to tackle complex or ambiguous technical problems
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision
• Strong willingness and ability to learn new tools, languages, and technologies quickly
• Working knowledge of Python

Desirable (Not Essential)

• Experience interfacing software with hardware or embedded systems
• Familiarity with computer networking
• Experience with deep-learning frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch)
• Understanding of machine learning, optimisation, statistics, or algorithm development
• Experience developing mobile applications (iOS or Android)

Suitable for both graduates and experienced engineers with strong problem-solving skills and a desire to learn.
