This AI Engineer Emerging Technology role sits at the heart of that mission. Youll be hands-on in developing optimising and experimenting with advanced modelshelping to shape how Maia and our AI systems evolve end-to-end. From reinforcement learning to context and memory from structured knowledge to performance optimisation youll explore new approaches and translate them into product-ready features that deliver real value to our users.

If youre driven by impact innovation and the chance to work at the frontier of AI in a product-led organisation this is the opportunity for you.

We value in-person collaboration here at Matillion therefore this role will ideally follow our hybrid work structure where employees work 2 days a week in the Manchester office. However we can be flexible for the right person.
