UK Applied AI Solution Engineer

About Tomoro

Tomoro enables organisations to realise competitive advantage with the power of Generative AI. We work with large corporate clients to create meaningful AI strategies, build production‑ready AI solutions and effectively integrate those solutions in their businesses.

Our alliance with OpenAI and NVIDIA (among others) enables us to lead the industry in building valuable, scalable, enterprise‑ready solutions for businesses.

We're driven by applied R&D, prototyping and AI innovation. Our client teams are focused on tackling the most challenging aspects of applied AI in the enterprise sector directly with clients.

About The Role

Applied AI solution engineers are expected to work in small teams of Tomoro and client engineers to design, build and deploy AI applications, such as agents built around Large Language Models.

As your experience and expertise in the role grows, this may extend to leading these teams, owning solutions end‑to‑end and advising clients in this space.

The typical applications we build use existing closed or open‑source foundational models, potentially with some fine tuning. We generally do not need to train our own foundational models from scratch.

Responsibilities

• Building AI‑powered solutions, particularly those involving large language models with our client partners. You'll be hands‑on and will own design and build of such solutions.
• Regularly interacting with clients to understand their business challenges, goals, and requirements, and effectively communicating how AI solutions can address their needs.
• Solving complex technical problems that arise during the development and implementation of AI solutions. You'll also help bring some of these "tough problems" back to Tomoro R&D team and work with them to solve problems for the industry.
• Providing technical guidance and leadership within the team, including mentoring junior engineers and contributing to team skill development.
• Working collaboratively with other teams within the company, including non‑technical teams, to ensure an integrated approach to AI solution development and implementation.
• Staying updated with the latest developments in AI, machine learning, and related technologies to continually enhance the quality of solutions offered.
• Ensuring the reliability, effectiveness, and safety of AI solutions through rigorous testing and quality assurance practices.
• Upholding and actively contributing to ethical standards in AI development, including considerations for data privacy, bias minimisation, and regulatory compliance. Help expand our knowledge on this subject and help drive ethical ways to implement AI.
• Assisting clients in understanding and effectively using AI solutions, and providing ongoing support and maintenance as needed.

Indicators you’ll be a good fit

• Strong hands‑on experience of developing production‑grade solutions involving:
• Building Microservices (including scalable data pipelines using frameworks like Spark)
• Data technologies (Python, SQL)
• Large language models, fine tuning (closed & open source, OpenAI API)
• Solution design (mainly data applications using Python, SQL and other allied tech stack)
• Analytical problem solving

Comfortable being client‑facing

• Communication & translation: Excellent communication skills to effectively interact with clients, understand their needs and explain complex AI concepts in an accessible manner
• Business acumen: Understanding of business processes and how AI solutions can be used to improve efficiency, reduce costs, or create new opportunities

Adaptable and self‑sufficient

As a growing, fast‑paced organisation, Tomoro offers significant opportunities for rapid growth for everyone in the team. In this stage of the business, we have limited capacity for handholding and need each team member to be able to operate independently and be flexible to work outside of their comfort zone.

Passionate and positive

Tomoro exists because we believe we can drive transformative change with AI across entire industries. Everyone in the team needs to share the passion for AI technology and its power for good.

Creative and curious

Staying at the forefront of the AI revolution requires everyone in the team to be aware of the latest developments in AI technology and innovating to find new ways to solve some of the hardest unsolved challenges in industry. Pro‑active self‑learning and openness to new ideas are essential.

Ethical and responsible

Our people are our greatest defence against the risks AI solutions can pose to individuals, organisations and society. Everyone in our team needs to show awareness of ethical considerations in AI, such as data privacy, bias in AI models, and the societal impact of AI technologies.
