Founding AI Engineer

Bead AI • Full-time • London, England, United Kingdom • 22h ago

What you'll do

Develop and scale the backbone of our core audit product. You’ll scope, build, and launch product features that will enable our customers to replace work that has traditionally been done manually with a fully agentic approach.
Take ownership of end-to-end AI workflows. Including data processing, model fine-tuning, evaluation, and deployment.
Help set product direction. You’ll contribute to the roadmap, balancing customer feedback with long-term product health.

You…

Are an AI Engineer with experience building, launching, and scaling agentic systems
Can balance research curiosity with engineering pragmatism
Want to move quickly, own problems end-to-end, and iterate with limited guidance
Flourish in autonomy, complexity, and ambiguity
Are comfortable working client-facing when needed

This is a great fit if you…

Enjoy building great products and are happy to take ownership end-to-end to get there
Have previously or want to found something yourself in a few years time
Would like to move from London to SF next year (with visa support)
Have high agency and a constant drive for impact
Flourish in autonomy, complexity, and ambiguity
Want to work in-person from our office in London
Deeply fascinated by artificial intelligence, and how it will shape the future

This won't be the right role if you…

Are uncomfortable with ambiguity. We are still very early and are constantly adjusting based on what we learn.
Are looking to manage others. We're firmly looking for someone who, for now, wants to be an individual contributor.
Get satisfaction predominantly by learning new technologies. We are building something new in an old industry, we need to use boring but proven methods where possible.
Currently don't have the right to work in either the UK or the US. We're happy to provide visa support in either direction, but not both.

What we offer

Generous compensation: $160k - $210k cash, 0.8-1.5% equity
Full medical insurance
Relocation and visa support
