Senior Data Engineer - AI Tooling£130,000 - £140,000 | Fully Remote (UK/EU) | PermanentAn industry-leading tech company is searching for a Senior Data Engineer to join a fully remote team that's transforming how data engineering and AI interact at scale.This is an opportunity to be at the core of a platform that handles tens of millions of interactions daily, leverages state-of-the-art GenAI tools, and processes billions of data points per day through advanced real-time systems.If you're passionate about performance, intelligent automation, and solving technical challenges at the bleeding edge, this role will put your skills to the test - and then some.Why This Role Stands Out*True AI-first engineering: You'll use AI to build, maintain, and improve systems - not just as a side tool, but as a core part of your daily workflow
*Massive scale, real impact: Systems ingest over 30 million search interactions per day, compressing 560 scrapes per second into a high-performance pipeline
*Streaming architecture built for speed: 100+ node Spark clusters, S3 data lakes, distributed systems tuned for throughput and scale
*Engineering-driven culture: You'll work closely with world-class engineers and data scientists who care deeply about performance, code quality, and modern architecture
*No legacy, no silos: Start-up agility with the resources and ambition of a mature, high-growth product companyThis team doesn't just bolt AI onto existing workflows - they build AI-native infrastructure. From integrating LLM agents into product features to using AI to write and refine code, this is an environment where experimentation and automation drive real innovation.What You'll Bring*Strong background in data engineering, with hands-on experience building production systems
*Familiarity with or strong interest in AI tooling (GitHub Copilot, LLM-based code generation, AI agents)
*Proficiency in Python and at least one other language (ideally Scala or Java)
*Experience working in distributed environments, cloud systems (e.g., AWS), and high-scale data pipelines
*Curiosity, creativity, and a builder mindsetWhat's in It for You*Competitive salary up to £140,000
*100% remote inside UK
*Join a team solving some of the most exciting technical problems in AI and data
*Work alongside top engineers, data scientists, and product thinkers
*Freedom to design, build, and ship with modern tools and no tech debt holding you backThis is the ideal role for a Data Engineer who wants to move fast, build smart, and push boundaries - all while being part of a team where AI isn't the future - it's already the norm.Ready to level up your engineering career?
