About the Project
The project focuses on replacing complex, labour-intensive backend business processes with Python-based automation and LLM-powered solutions.
You will join as the first engineer and Team Lead of a growing contractor team, establishing the technical foundations and helping shape how the team works and delivers. You will collaborate closely with an AI & Automation Product Manager with experience at Meta, turning business challenges into practical solutions.
This is a hands-on leadership role requiring strong Python expertise, excellent communication skills, and the confidence to take ownership of problems from discovery through production.
Responsibilities

- Work closely with the Product Manager and business stakeholders to understand existing workflows, clarify requirements, and define priorities.
- Translate complex business problems into actionable technical plans and clearly scoped tasks.
- Design and develop Python services, automated workflows, and integrations with existing systems and APIs.
- Apply LLM capabilities where they provide measurable value, with appropriate validation and human review.
- Establish engineering standards, development practices, and a collaborative team culture.
- Guide and mentor engineers, delegate responsibilities, and provide constructive feedback and code reviews as the team grows.
- Proactively identify risks, resolve blockers, and communicate progress and trade-offs clearly.
- Lead technical discussions, handle disagreements constructively, and help stakeholders reach informed decisions.
- Ensure solutions include appropriate testing, monitoring, error handling, and production support.
Requirements
- Strong commercial experience building and maintaining production systems with Python.
- Proven experience leading an engineering team while remaining actively involved in technical design and development.
- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, including active listening, constructive feedback, and effective conflict resolution.
- Strong ownership: the ability to independently drive problems from initial investigation to a working production solution.
- Experience collaborating directly with Product Managers and business stakeholders, translating business goals into technical delivery.
- Ability to organise team workloads, delegate effectively, support engineers, and maintain accountability for commitments.
- Experience delivering backend automation, system integrations, or solutions that replace manual business processes.
- Practical experience integrating LLMs into applications or automated workflows.
- Strong backend engineering fundamentals, including APIs, databases, data processing, and reliable error handling.
- Experience with automated testing, Git, and production deployment practices.
- Ability to work effectively with evolving requirements, make pragmatic decisions, and explain technical trade-offs.
- Strong spoken and written English, sufficient to lead discussions, clarify complex requirements, and confidently challenge assumptions.
Nice to Have
- Experience building a new engineering team or establishing delivery processes from scratch.
- Experience interviewing and onboarding engineers.
- Experience with document processing, information extraction, or document-heavy workflows.
- Experience evaluating LLM outputs for accuracy, reliability, latency, and cost.
- Experience with workflow orchestration, background jobs, and asynchronous processing.
