Artificial Intelligence Engineer

Role: Founding AI Engineer (Full Stack & AI) at a Cambridge University backed startup

Location: London (hybrid)

Salary: £60,000 - £80,000 p.a. + equity

If your skills, experience, and qualifications match those in this job overview, do not delay your application.

The Mission:

Satorus is a London-based startup with a mission to automate the entire workflow of intelligence investigations. Intelligence solutions currently only aggregate data. The actual analysis remains manual. At Satorus, we’re automating this to deliver customer-tailored intelligence at warp speeds to ensure that no organisation ever has to make a decision in the dark. You will be an architect of this automation.

What you’ll do:

• Architect & Iterate: Work directly with the CTO to translate business objectives into technical reality.
• Full-Stack Ownership: Develop and maintain core services across the stack (React/Python), ensuring our platform is as robust as it is innovative.
• AI Frontier: Build and refine AI agents and advanced prompt engineering to automate complex intelligence workflows.
• Operational Excellence: Support live deployments, optimise performance, and troubleshoot mission-critical issues in real-time.
• Shape engineering standards: help establish the technical processes and quality bar as we scale. 

What we’re looking for

The Person:

• The "0 to 1" Mindset: You’ve built cool stuff before. Whether it's a side project, an open-source contribution, or a previous startup, you know how to handle a blank canvas.
• Radical Candor: We value honesty over politeness. We need someone who can challenge ideas and take feedback without ego.
• C1 or C2 proficiency in English

Technical Skills:

• Tech Stack: Professional proficiency in React and Python.
• AI Focus: Hands-on experience with Agentic AI development, RAG, memory and Prompt Engineering.
• Core Fundamentals: A strong grasp of CS fundamentals (Data Structures, Algorithms, System Design). xwzovoh
• Demonstrable production experience working with text-based AI systems (LLMs, RAG, document processing) rather than primarily visual or multimodal AI.
• Bonus Point: Familiarity with AI Security and open-source intelligence.
