The Role Join our engineering team as we build intelligent systems that power deal-winning strategies for ambitious companies.

You'll be working on challenging problems in sales intelligence: predicting deal outcomes, automatically surfacing actions that move deals forward, and turning sales data into strategic insights that drive revenue.

In our fast-paced environment, you'll take ownership of meaningful AI projects from day one, work closely with our founding team, and see your code impact real businesses within weeks.

What You'll Be Building AI Sales Intelligence:

• Develop AI agents that predict deal outcomes and identify revenue risks before they become problems
• Build intelligent coaching systems that automatically surface personalised next-best-actions for sales reps
• Build intelligent automation that helps sales teams execute their playbooks with unprecedented consistency

Real-World AI Experience

• Previous internship or project experience applying GenAI, LLMs, and prompt engineering to solve business problems
• Experience with RAG systems, vector databases, and intelligent search capabilities
• Understanding of production ML challenges: data quality, model monitoring, and scalable deployment

Sales & Business Acumen

• Genuine interest in understanding sales processes and revenue optimisation (we'll teach you the rest!)
• Strong analytical mindset with ability to translate business requirements into technical AI solutions
• Experience conducting user research or working directly with end-users of AI systems

Startup DNA

• Up to £900 flexible benefits: medical insurance, dental, gym membership, and more
• Be part of the Blenheim Chalcot family – connect with incredible people across 30+ startups
• Regular social events and networking opportunities at Scale Space

Our Values

• Experts, but not always right - We bring deep expertise while staying humble and open to new approaches
• Substance before "sizzle" - We build robust, impactful AI that solves real problems, not just impressive demos
• Caring and courageous - We support each other's growth and tackle the hardest technical challenges in sales AI
• Evergreen entrepreneurs - We think like owners and continuously innovate to stay ahead
• We care deeply about giving feedback in the right way. We champion the idea of test and learn, and we’re not afraid of failure. We’re always looking for ways to improve, and respect everyone’s ideas. And we really take the time to invest in our working relationships, and overall, practise what we preach.

This Role Might Not Be For You If...

• You prefer slow-moving, bureaucratic environments (we ship fast and iterate quickly)
• You want to work on AI for AI's sake rather than solving real business problems
• You're not excited about learning the sales domain and working closely with go-to-market teams
• You're uncomfortable with the ambiguity and rapid change that comes with cutting-edge AI development

Join Our Team We're looking for our next AI engineer to help build the future of revenue intelligence. If you're ready to apply your AI skills to solve challenging problems in sales and business growth, we want to hear from you.
