Step into this Conversational AI Engineer role and build something that matters in AI & Technology.
Voice and chat interfaces are becoming the default front door for customer service, internal tools and product experiences.
This is a young company riding that shift, building conversational products where most teams are still bolting chatbots onto legacy systems.
You'd join a lean team with real autonomy over how the language models actually get wired into something people use every day.
Here's what you'll be doing: Design and build conversational flows that handle real user intent, not just scripted happy paths Fine-tune and evaluate language models for accuracy, tone and latency across different use cases Integrate NLU pipelines with backend systems, APIs and third-party data sources Write and maintain automated test suites that catch regressions before users do Monitor live conversations, spot failure patterns, and ship fixes fast Work directly with product and design to shape what the assistant should actually do, not just how it responds Here are the skills you'll need: Solid experience building with LLMs, NLU frameworks or dialogue management systems Strong Python skills, and comfort working close to production infrastructure A working understanding of prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, and evaluation methods Ability to explain technical trade-offs to non-technical teammates without losing the detail that matters Comfortable owning a problem end to end, from idea through to a live user-facing feature A few years in, you'll have already shipped something and broken something.
Both count Key perks and benefits: £46,000 to £68,000, depending on experience Equity in the company, because this matters to how it grows Fully remote working, with flexible hours built around how you actually work best A genuine learning and development budget, not a token gesture Flat structure.
No six layers of sign-off before you can ship a fix Why pursue a career in AI & Technology?
Demand for people who can actually build and ship conversational AI, rather than just talk about it, keeps climbing.
Birmingham has quietly become one of the UK's stronger tech hubs outside London, and AI & Technology roles based there increasingly come with the pay and flexibility to match.
Get good at this now and the next five years of your career look very different.
