Remote Frontend Jobs

Aveni is building next-generation AI systems for UK financial services, where safety, compliance, and trust are non-negotiable. We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer to work on AI and agentic platform capabilities that power intelligent, automated workflows for financial services.

• Build intelligent workflows using LLMs and agentic architectures
• Integrate AI models into production systems
• Design guardrails, policy enforcement, and behavioural monitoring for AI agents
• Support and guide junior and mid-level engineers
• Lead code reviews and promote engineering best practices
• Contribute to documentation, demos, and knowledge sharing
• Use AI coding tools to accelerate development and improve quality
• Help define best practices for AI-assisted software engineering

Must Have

• Strong Python expertise in production environments
• Experience building cloud-native systems on AWS (Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, EventBridge)
• Experience working with LLMs or AI/ML systems
• Strong understanding of APIs, async systems, and scalable architecture

Nice to Have

• Experience with AI safety, guardrails, or policy enforcement
• Background in agentic systems or autonomous workflows
• Experience in financial services or regulated environments
• Familiarity with Node.js / TypeScript, Terraform or CDK
• Knowledge of observability tools and ML fundamentals

You’ll Thrive If You Are

• Pragmatic and able to balance speed with long-term quality
• Curious about AI, especially safety and responsible usage
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving scale-up environment
• A strong communicator who can explain complex ideas clearly
• Passionate about mentoring and raising team standards
