Software Engineer

Cambridgeshire, England
Exciting role with vibrant start-up
Job ID: 481157

A well-funded AI engineering organisation is hiring a Software Engineer to work on a new AI framework built for stringent control and compliance in highly regulated sectors (financial services, healthcare). It’s a core part of a broader high-assurance programme, designed to make AI systems safe to use where accuracy, explainability, and accountability are hard requirements — built in Rust for memory safety and performance, with mathematical proof of correct outputs, sandboxed execution, and intelligent filtering.

What you’ll do

  • Design, build, and maintain core components of the framework using idiomatic Rust
  • Develop secure execution environments, multi-model validation pipelines, and filtering systems to prevent data leakage and policy violations
  • Use LLMs, AI agents, and coding copilots extensively to write, test, and refactor code
  • Architect systems that integrate safely with foundation models, meeting strict compliance and governance requirements
  • Review AI-generated code for security, performance, and correctness; build CI/CD optimised for AI-assisted workflows
  • Translate compliance protocols into production-ready software

What they’re looking for

  • Proven Rust experience, strong systems programming and secure coding practices
  • Direct, high proficiency using LLMs/AI agents for development (e.g. Cursor, Copilot, autonomous coding agents)
  • Familiarity with enterprise AI deployment challenges (security, regulatory risk, auditability)
  • Strong debugging skills, optimising for latency, safety, and scalability

Nice to have: regulated-industry background (finance, banking, healthcare), formal verification/applied cryptography/verifiable compute, sandboxing tech (Wasm, VMs, containers), open-source Rust contributions.
