Research Engineer

• Shape our roadmap to create new model capabilities and unlock new functionality for our customer base, on both short and long time horizons.
• Propose novel multi-modal system architectures (especially text and voice).
• Develop and evaluate streaming and conversational systems for low-latency, interactive voice-video synthesis.
• Design solutions that reinforce emotional expressiveness and natural interaction.
• Implement and bring designs to life, from pretraining through post-training.
• Ship models to production with optimised runtime to serve customers, and address their feedback thereafter.

Staff Research Engineer – Multimodal Generative Modelling

• Contribute to shaping and delivery of project strategy, integrating cross-functional expertise and understanding the strategic direction for target products
• Plan and manage delivery, including budgets, schedules, and preparation of Technology Development Plans and Technology Business Cases
• Lead development activities, from hands-on testing and trials through to high-quality technical documentation
• Drive projects to exploitation, supporting development toward industrialisation and real-world application
• Engage stakeholders and partners, build and maintain strong relationships across internal and external partners, customers, and the supply chain
• Support and develop people while fostering a safe, inclusive, and high-performing working environment

Senior Research Engineer – Composite Manufacturing Processes

• Conduct applied research on LLM-based reasoning, multi-agent systems and develop frontier bespoke models for automating legal workflows.
• Develop prototypes and experimental models to explore novel AI-driven legal solutions.
• Design and implement retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, leveraging embeddings, vector databases, and structured retrieval techniques.
• Optimise LLM inference and fine-tuning using techniques such as LoRA, PEFT, prompt engineering, and caching.
• Integrate multi-modal and external knowledge sources to enhance AI-driven insights.
• Research and implement autonomous agentic AI systems for complex, multi-step legal workflows.
• Stay up to date with the latest advancements in model architectures, alignment and interpretability, and orchestrating complex multi-agent systems.
• Collaborate with engineers to transition experimental models into production-ready systems.

Applied Research Engineer

• Sit in on a customer session, understand how their agents are failing, design an eval that captures it, and drive a fix through to shipped improvement.
• Close a piece of the outer loop end to end: production signal in, dataset out, eval scored, harness change shipped, metric moved.
• Own a slice of our eval infrastructure: dataset curation, harness configuration, runner, analysis, and the comms back to engineering.
• Prototype a new harness or context configuration and measure whether it actually moves the needle on real customer tasks.
• Dig through pages of agent traces, build the tooling you need to make sense of them, and brief the team on what you found.
• Partner with product and engineering on near-term shipping problems by bringing research rigour.
• Pull a recent paper apart, work out what's actually transferable to our platform, and turn it into a concrete experiment.
