Job Description

We want to make investing easier, more accessible and help people feel good about investing. Technology is central to making that happen, and Generative AI is becoming an increasingly important part of how we innovate at AJ Bell.

We’re looking for a Software Engineer (GenAI) to join our growing GenAI Engineering team, building AI-powered solutions that solve genuine business problems and deliver value for our customers and colleagues. You’ll have the freedom to experiment with emerging technology, develop your expertise and help influence how we adopt GenAI across the business.

You’ll work within a collaborative, cross-functional engineering team, with the opportunity to contribute across our technology stack and propositions.

What we're looking for

We’re looking for a motivated and curious Software Engineer with strong Python development skills and a genuine interest in Generative AI and large language models.

You’ll help us design, build and deliver production-grade GenAI solutions across the business, working with modern LLMs, AI platforms and emerging agentic technologies.

We’re looking for someone who is curious about AI and LLMs, keeps up with how the technology is evolving, and enjoys experimenting and learning. You’ll be excited by what GenAI can make possible, while applying sound engineering judgement and focusing on building solutions that are simple, robust and deliver real value.

Key technical skills

  • Strong knowledge and experience of Python, its libraries and tooling
  • Experience working with industry-leading large language models, particularly OpenAI and Anthropic
  • Solid understanding of RESTful API design and implementation
  • Experience with Git-based source control and modern software engineering practices
  • Experience in AI-assisted development, using tools such as GitHub Copilot and Claude Code

It would be great if you also have

  • Experience building and operating solutions in the cloud, preferably AWS
  • Practical knowledge of GenAI architecture and engineering patterns
  • Familiarity with GenAI platforms and tooling such as Amazon Bedrock, Bedrock AgentCore and LiteLLM
  • Experience with CI/CD and containerisation
  • Experience taking GenAI applications from proof of concept through to production

What you'll bring

  • Curiosity about LLMs, GenAI and emerging AI technologies, with a willingness to experiment, learn and develop your knowledge
  • Strong technical problem-solving skills
  • The ability to work effectively with engineers and business stakeholders
  • A pragmatic engineering mindset, balancing innovation with business value
  • A collaborative, proactive and adaptable approach to working in an evolving technology environment

About AJ Bell

At AJ Bell, we believe investing should feel good.

Technology plays a huge part in making that possible.

We’re one of the UK’s fastest-growing investment platform businesses, trusted by everyone from professional financial advisers to first-time investors.

Today, more than 762,000 customers trust us to manage more than £121.5 billion of assets. That trust is something we take seriously.

Our technology needs to work hard behind the scenes to make investing feel simple, reliable and secure. From the platforms our customers interact with to the critical systems and processes that support our business, we're continually looking for better ways to use technology to deliver a great experience.

As an Integration Engineering Manager at AJ Bell, you’ll have the opportunity to influence that experience, not just through the technology you help build, but through the people and engineering culture you develop.

We're proud to be recognised as one of the UK's Best 100 Companies to Work For for six consecutive years, and a Great Place to Work® for the past two years, a reflection of our supportive and collaborative culture.

What we offer

  • 6% pension with matched contributions
  • Discretionary bonus scheme
  • Share schemes, including free shares and BAYE
  • Health Cash Plan and discounted private healthcare
  • Free onsite gym
  • Enhanced family leave, subject to qualifying criteria
  • Travel and bike loan schemes

Our ways of working

At AJ Bell, our people are the heart of our culture. We believe in building strong connections by working together. That's why we offer a hybrid working model, where you'll spend a minimum of 50% of working time per month in the office. For new team members, an initial period will be spent full-time in the office to help you immerse yourself in our business and build valuable relationships with your colleagues.

Inclusion & diversity

We’re committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels respected, supported and able to be themselves at work.

We welcome applications from all backgrounds and make hiring decisions based on skills, experience and potential.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
