We're a small, high-output technology consultancy based in London, building AI-powered platforms for the construction and real estate industry. We work with enterprise clients and develop our own products. You'll be building real things that ship.
We're looking for a full-stack developer who has hands-on experience integrating AI into products - not just someone who's done a tutorial on LangChain, but someone who's actually built features powered by LLMs, embeddings, or AI APIs and shipped them to real users.
What you'll do
Build and maintain full-stack web applications using React/Next.js on the frontend and Node.js or Python on the backend
Integrate LLM APIs (Claude, OpenAI, etc.) into production workflows — including prompt engineering, structured outputs, tool use, and retrieval-augmented generation
Work with MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and AI agent architectures as part of our platform integrations
Design and build APIs that connect AI capabilities to user-facing features
Contribute to data pipelines that feed AI systems — document parsing, embedding generation, vector storage
Work directly with the team on architecture decisions — no layers of project managers
What we're looking for**
3–8 years of professional full-stack development experience
Strong React/Next.js and Node.js or Python (ideally both)
Genuine, demonstrable experience integrating AI/LLM capabilities into a product — tell us what you built, how the AI was used, and what you learned
Familiarity with at least some of: LangChain, LlamaIndex, vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector), embedding models, RAG pipelines, prompt engineering patterns
Comfortable with REST APIs, PostgreSQL, and modern deployment (Docker, CI/CD)
Exposure to or interest in MCP (Model Context Protocol)
