​ OVERVIEW OF THE ROLE

Flutter Functions' AI & Automation team is looking for an expert AI Engineering Lead to build and lead a unit of 2–3 AI developers. You will be responsible for the technical vision and execution of Flutter's enterprise AI assistant and agent platforms, using internal data to enhance productivity and decision-making across our global sports betting and gaming operations.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role combining AI engineering, architecture, people leadership and cross-functional teamwork. You will shape engineering standards, make key architectural decisions, mentor your team, and help deliver production-grade AI systems serving over 20 million customers across 20+ regulated markets.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Technical Leadership & Architecture

  • Set the technical direction for our enterprise AI assistant and agent platforms, making architectural decisions across LLM inference, agentic frameworks, context engineering, guardrails and system design.
  • Own the selection, deployment and optimisation of LLM inference systems including AWS Bedrock and LiteLLM, with a focus on model routing, cost, latency and operational excellence.
  • Design production-grade context pipelines, RAG systems and prompt architectures, establishing patterns, standards and evaluation practices for the team.
  • Guide architectural decisions around token economics, context limits, latency budgets and capability-to-cost trade-offs.
  • Establish robust guardrails, security and Responsible AI practices, addressing prompt injection, data leakage, authentication, access control and sensitive data handling across regulated markets.
  • Make informed technology choices across agentic frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, Strands and ADK, and establish scalable orchestration and tool-use patterns.
  • Own problems end-to-end, from LLM integration and backend services through to user-facing interfaces, APIs and integrations using AWS services, MCP and modern engineering standards.

People Leadership

  • Build, lead and mentor a pod of 2–3 AI developers, supporting their technical and career growth.
  • Establish engineering standards through code reviews, architectural guidance and continuous technical development.
  • Lead the team through production incidents, complex technical challenges and post-mortems, driving systemic improvements.
  • Develop a culture of learning, experimentation, psychological safety and continuous improvement, while encouraging the team to challenge assumptions and take calculated technical risks.

Collaboration & Delivery

  • Partner with product managers and business stakeholders to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions and prioritise high-impact work.
  • Collaborate with data scientists and platform engineering teams to integrate AI solutions into Flutter's existing infrastructure.
  • Communicate complex AI concepts clearly to technical and non-technical audiences, present architectural decisions to leadership, and influence technical direction across teams.

TO EXCEL IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL NEED

Core Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, AI or a related STEM field, with 8–12 years of software development experience, including 2–3+ years focused on AI/ML or agentic systems development.
  • Experience leading or mentoring technical teams, with the ability to establish technical direction and drive delivery through others.
  • Advanced Python and backend engineering skills, including production experience with FastAPI, Flask and async patterns.
  • Hands-on expertise with AWS Bedrock, LiteLLM or similar LLM inference platforms, including model routing, API design, cost optimisation and production deployment.
  • Strong experience in context engineering, RAG and prompt architecture, and ability to evaluate trade-offs and design production-grade solutions.
  • Deep experience with 2–3+ agentic frameworks, such as LangChain, LangGraph, Strands, ADK or CrewAI, including orchestration, tool use and multi-agent patterns.
  • Experience designing and implementing guardrails, content filtering and Responsible AI practices in production environments.
  • Strong AI security fundamentals, including prompt injection, data exfiltration, model misuse, OAuth, JWT and least-privilege design.
  • Proficiency with AI coding tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot or OpenCode, and ability to validate AI-generated code and guide others in their use.
  • Expert knowledge of software engineering fundamentals, including SDLC, Git, API design, system architecture and collaborative engineering.
  • Exceptional communication and influencing skills - ability to explain complex technical concepts to technical and non-technical audiences and build consensus without relying on formal authority.

Highly Desirable Skills

  • Full-stack experience across React, TypeScript, backend services and AI integration.
  • Hands-on experience designing and operating production RAG systems and vector databases, including Pinecone, pgvector, OpenSearch or Weaviate.
  • Experience with Model Context Protocol (MCP) and its implementation in AI agent systems.
  • Contributions to AI/ML or agentic open-source frameworks such as LangChain or CrewAI.
  • Experience in gaming, sports betting, financial services or other heavily regulated environments.

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.
