Senior Software / Data Engineer – AI & Legal Automation


Backed by top-tier funds with a recent £30mil+ Series A (one of Europe’s largest in 2024), this AI-driven legal tech company is revolutionising legal automation. Built on a fine-tuned LLM that has passed the Solicitors Qualifying Exams (SQE), they are expanding globally and growing their elite engineering team.


The Role


As a Senior Software / Data Engineer, you’ll design and build scalable infrastructure powering AI-driven legal automation. You'll work with cutting-edge tech to build and optimise high-performance systems.


Key Responsibilities


  • Backend Development:Build and refine APIs and services using Python (FastAPI, Pydantic).
  • Scalable Infrastructure:Design, implement, and optimise cloud-based solutions for AI workloads.
  • AI Workload Optimisation:Architect and scale compute infrastructure for inference, batch processing, and real-time AI interactions.
  • Event-Driven Architecture:Develop and maintain real-time, event-driven systems (SNS/SQS, Kafka, Redis Streams).
  • Workflow Orchestration:Implement long-running workflow solutions (Step Functions, Temporal, Airflow).
  • Real-Time Communication:Optimise WebSockets and SSE for chatbot responsiveness.
  • Document Storage & Retrieval:Work with OpenSearch, S3, and AI-assisted document processing.
  • Data Pipelines:Build efficient ETL pipelines for ingesting and transforming data.
  • Infrastructure Strategy:Influence architecture decisions for scalability, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Researcher Enablement:Develop tools and infrastructure for AI/data research teams (Langfuse, experiment tracking, dataset management).


Requirements


  • Python Expertise:Strong experience with FastAPI, Pydantic.
  • Cloud & Infra:Proficiency with AWS (Lambda, S3, ECS, EventBridge, RDS, OpenSearch) and Terraform.
  • Event-Driven Systems:Hands-on experience with event-driven architectures (SNS/SQS, Kafka, Redis Streams).
  • Workflow Orchestration:Knowledge of long-running workflows (Step Functions, Temporal, Airflow).
  • Real-Time Systems:Understanding of WebSockets, SSE, and related protocols.
  • Data Engineering:Experience designing ETL pipelines and handling structured/unstructured data.
  • Security & Reliability:Strong grasp of cloud security, IAM, and infrastructure resilience.
  • Problem-Solving:Proven ability to debug and optimise distributed systems.


Nice to Have


  • AI Scaling:Experience running AI/ML workloads in production (batch vs. real-time inference, GPU optimisation).
  • Vector Databases:Familiarity with vector search and retrieval systems.
  • Kubernetes:Hands-on experience managing and deploying Kubernetes clusters.
  • Agentic AI:Experience with autonomous AI systems.
  • Legal Tech Background:Knowledge of legal industry workflows and automation.


Why Join?


If you want to ship features daily in a fast-paced, high-impact environment. Work at the forefront of AI in legal tech, solving complex challenges & join a team of ambitious, mission-driven engineers redefining the industry. This is perfect for you!


  • 26 Days Holiday

Machine Learning Jobs Skills Radar 2026: Emerging Tools, Frameworks & Platforms to Learn Now

Machine learning is no longer confined to academic research—it's embedded in how UK companies detect fraud, recommend content, automate processes & forecast risk. But with model complexity rising and LLMs transforming workflows, employers are demanding new skills from machine learning professionals. Welcome to the Machine Learning Jobs Skills Radar 2026—your annual guide to the top languages, frameworks, platforms & tools shaping machine learning roles in the UK. Whether you're an aspiring ML engineer or a mid-career data scientist, this radar shows what to learn now to stay job-ready in 2026.

How to Find Hidden Machine Learning Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like BCS, Turing Society & More

Machine learning (ML) continues to transform sectors across the UK—from fintech and retail to healthtech and autonomous systems. But while the demand for ML engineers, researchers, and applied scientists is growing, many of the best opportunities are never posted on traditional job boards. So, where do you find them? The answer lies in professional bodies, academic-industry networks, and tight-knit ML communities. In this guide, we’ll show you how to uncover hidden machine learning jobs in the UK by engaging with groups like the BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT), Turing Society, Alan Turing Institute, and others. We’ll explore how to use member directories, CPD events, SIGs (Special Interest Groups), and community projects to build connections, gain early access to job leads, and raise your professional profile in the ML ecosystem.

How to Get a Better Machine Learning Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

Redundancy in machine learning can feel especially frustrating when your role was technically advanced, strategically important, or AI-facing. But the UK still has strong demand for machine learning professionals across fintech, healthtech, retail, cybersecurity, autonomous systems, and generative AI. Whether you're a research-oriented ML engineer, production-focused MLOps developer, or applied scientist, this guide is designed to help you bounce back from redundancy and find a better opportunity that suits your goals.
