Major Financial Services organisation looking to hire multiple AI Product Engineers, with opportunities available for engineers at different levels of experience, from hands-on software engineers through to senior engineers with broader technical ownership and architectural responsibility.

You'll build and deliver AI-enabled products and enterprise applications, combining modern full-stack engineering with AI-assisted development tools to accelerate delivery, improve software quality and solve real business problems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Frontend: React, TypeScript and JavaScript

  • Backend: APIs using Python and modern frameworks

  • Design scalable architectures, data models and system integrations

  • Use AI coding assistants and agents to accelerate development

  • Evaluate, test and validate AI-generated code for quality, security and performance

  • Build cloud-native solutions using AWS and modern infrastructure

  • Implement automated testing, CI/CD pipelines and observability

  • Collaborate with product managers and stakeholders to translate business needs into technical solutions

  • Contribute to technical design, engineering standards and best practices, with scope depending on seniority



Key Requirements



  • Commercial software engineering experience, with opportunities ranging from mid-level to senior engineers

  • Strong hands-on development skills across frontend and/or backend technologies

  • Experience with React, TypeScript/JavaScript and/or Python

  • Understanding of APIs, databases, system design and software architecture

  • Experience using AI-assisted coding tools such as Claude Code or GitHub Copilot, or a strong interest in applying them to software development

  • Strong problem-solving skills and a focus on delivering high-quality, maintainable code

  • Ability to assess, test and validate code rather than relying solely on AI-generated output

  • Experience working collaboratively with product and engineering teams



Nice to have:



  • Experience across the full stack, including React and Python

  • AWS experience, including Lambda, S3, API Gateway or RDS

  • PostgreSQL and relational database design

  • Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code

  • CI/CD, automated testing and observability

  • Experience building AI-enabled products or working with AI coding agents

  • Financial Services experience



Additional Information



  • Multiple contract positions available across different experience levels

  • 2-8 years’ experience

  • Day rates ranging from £250-£700, depending on experience and technical capability

  • Hybrid working, with 3 days per week in the Belfast office

  • Applicants must already have the right to work, as sponsorship is not available
