𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗔𝗜 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿 (𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿) Remote (UK) · Full-time · £60,000–£70,000 (DOE) · Path to Head of Development IMPORTANT - UK based applicants only 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗔𝗫𝗜𝗢𝗡𝟰 AXION4 builds the intelligent operating infrastructure that businesses run on - AI, automation and custom software engineered into one connected system that measurably improves how a company performs. We work with real businesses across multiple sectors, diagnosing how each one actually operates - where it loses time, leads and margin - then designing and building the systems that fix it. Our principle is simple: we don’t automate chaos, we engineer clarity first. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗲 We’re hiring our first engineer - a founding technical role with genuine ownership and a clear arc. You’ll start hands-on, turning specifications into working, deployed, reliable systems. As we grow, you’ll set the engineering standards, choose how we build, and lead the delivery team. And because you’ll understand both the technology and the commercial problem behind it, you’ll move beyond building to specification toward shaping the solution itself. The path: senior builder, to Head of Development, to a technical mind that helps architect what we build. 𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗔𝗿𝗲 You’ve spent the last five to ten years building software and leading the people who build it. You understand engineering deeply - from the fundamentals up, not just framework-deep - and you’ve shipped real, production systems end to end. You’ve also fully embraced the AI wave. You use the latest AI tooling to accelerate and elevate your craft - not as a crutch, but as a multiplier - and you can tell the difference between AI that adds real value and AI for its own sake. You are the rare engineer who has merged classical engineering depth with AI-native speed. And you think commercially. You can sit with a business owner, understand how their business makes money and where it leaks it, and translate that into the right system - not just the one you were handed. That instinct is what takes you from building systems to designing them. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂’𝗹𝗹 𝗗𝗼 • Take detailed specifications and build to them - AI-enabled workflows, automations, integrations, dashboards, portals and custom applications., • Own the codebase, repositories and delivery environment, and keep every build maintainable, documented and reliable., • Establish the engineering standards, reusable components and patterns that make each build faster than the last., • Run QA, testing and deployment so releases are repeatable and dependable., • Scope, estimate and stress-test solutions alongside the founders - and increasingly, help shape them., • As the pipeline grows, hire, onboard and mentor developers, and build the delivery function you’ll lead. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂’𝗹𝗹 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 - 𝗘𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 • Five to ten years (or more) building software professionally, including time leading or running development teams., • Deep engineering fundamentals and a track record of shipping production systems end to end., • Genuine fluency with modern AI and LLM tooling, and the habit of using AI-assisted development to move faster without dropping quality., • Commercial insight - the ability to understand a business problem and design technology that solves it, not just code that runs., • The autonomy and judgement to be the first technical hire: setting standards rather than inheriting them, in a remote, fast-moving environment. 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘁𝗵 We’re deliberately tool-agnostic - we choose the right stack for each build, so we don’t require any single one. What we need is genuine breadth and the judgement to pick well. You’ll likely have worked across several of: • Languages & engineering - strong in one or more modern languages (e.g. TypeScript / JavaScript, Python), with sound architecture, testing and clean-code discipline., • Web & application development - full-stack delivery: modern front-end (e.g. React / Next.js), back-end services, and relational and non-relational databases., • APIs & integration - REST, webhooks, OAuth and event-driven patterns; wiring CRMs, payments, comms and third-party platforms into one coherent system., • Automation & workflow - orchestration and workflow tooling (e.g. n8n, Make, Zapier) alongside custom code, and the judgement to know when each is right., • AI & LLM engineering - model APIs (e.g. Anthropic, OpenAI), retrieval / RAG, embeddings and vector stores, agents and prompt design, integrated responsibly., • Cloud & delivery - hosting, serverless, containers, CI/CD and monitoring., • Data - modelling, storage, syncing and reporting. 𝗡𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 • Experience as a solutions architect or technical lead bridging commercial and technical teams., • Exposure to SME or agency environments, or sectors like healthcare, professional services or home services., • A history of building reusable frameworks or productising delivery. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗪𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 Remote-first (UK), spec-driven and pragmatic. We diagnose, design, then build - and we choose the right tools per problem rather than forcing every job through the same stack. You’ll have real ownership of how we build and the standards we hold. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿 • £60,000–£70,000 depending on experience, with a clear path to Head of Development and future shareholder status for the right candidate as the team grows., • Fully remote (UK), with genuine ownership and influence from day one., • The opportunity to shape a company’s entire engineering function - and increasingly its solutions - from the first line of code. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 • Apply through LinkedIn, or send us a short note covering three things: something you’ve built and shipped end to end; how you’ve merged deep engineering with the latest AI tooling; and a time you understood the commercial problem behind the build. We read every one. As part of the application process we may ask you to build a mini project from scratch, in order asses your discipline in planning, execution, versioning, testing and deployment etc. Good luck to all applicants.

Aveni is redefining how financial institutions use AI. We build real, production-ready agentic systems that reshape how banks, advisers and financial services firms operate, replacing fragmented processes with intelligent, end-to-end workflows. We have been recognised as Fintech of the Year for two consecutive years and awarded Best Specialist Technology Service at the Professional Adviser Awards 2025. Backed by leading investors including Puma Private Equity, and commercially supported by Lloyds Banking Group and Nationwide Building Society, we previously completed one of Scotland’s largest Series A rounds.

Our engineering team includes experienced software engineers and PhD-level AI specialists, with strong ties to the University of Edinburgh, giving you access to exceptional expertise and opportunities for continuous learning as part of the day-to-day work. The role We're looking for a Lead Software Engineer to be the most senior technical voice in one of our product squads, working as a technical co-leader alongside the Engineering Manager. You'll own the squad's technical direction and engineering quality end to end, from architectural decision making and hands-on delivery, to mentoring engineers and shaping how we build across the organisation. This role demands genuine depth in AI. You'll be leading LLM powered feature development and setting the standard for how AI tooling amplifies the whole engineering process, combined with the full-stack and cloud-native chops to back it up. What you'll be doing • Setting technical direction for your squad. Owning architectural decisions, managing technical risk, and representing the engineering perspective at our Architecture Review Board, • Driving adoption of AI coding tools across the full SDLC, from planning and design through code review, testing, deployment and setting the bar for how the squad works, • Delivering production grade code across the full stack: Node.js or Python backends, event-driven AWS architecture, and React where the squad needs it, • Mentoring and growing engineers across AI and full-stack domains, through code reviews, design documents, and day-to-day pairing, • Collaborating with platform teams to consume shared capabilities and contribute reusable patterns back, not building one-off solutions when a platform component will do, • Ensuring everything we ship is compliant-by-design, auditable, and built to the standards expected of software in FCA regulated financial services What we're looking for • A seasoned engineer with 10+ years of experience, including meaningful time building and operating AI/ML systems in production, • Real technical leadership. You've set direction, made architectural calls, mentored others, and influenced how a team builds, not just what it ships, • Strong hands-on AI/LLM skills: prompt engineering, RAG, model evaluation and agent frameworks. You know how these work in production, not just in demos, • Deep expertise in Node.js, with solid experience in the other; comfortable switching contexts depending on what the problem needs, • Cloud-native development on AWS.
