Job Summary

We are seeking AI Infra Engineer to design, develop, and optimize distributed AI systems for serverless AI platforms. The successful candidate will leverage expertise in large language models (LLMs), and system design to build robust, scalable solutions. This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to innovative AI-driven systems, collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver high-impact solutions in a fast-paced, research-driven environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement scalable, distributed systems to support AI-driven workloads, ensuring high performance and reliability.

  • Develop robust software solutions using Python (and potentially C++) to address complex technical challenges in AI and distributed computing.

  • Work within a larger team to rapidly develop proof-of-concept prototypes to validate research ideas and integrate them into production systems and serverless infrastructure.

  • Work closely with cross-functional teams to participate in developing innovative AI infrastructure, data systems, and cloud computing technologies.

  • Implement resource scheduling and orchestration mechanisms to ensure efficient execution of distributed tasks.

    Required:

  • Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field. (PhD preferred but not required).

  • Have an in-depth understanding of distributed systems and/or cloud computing and/or ML systems and/or multi-agent systems.

  • Have an in-depth understanding of serverless platforms and containerization (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).

  • Good programming skills, master of at least one language, such as Python, and/or C/C++.

  • Good communication and teamwork skills.

    Desired:

  • PhD in computer science, distributed systems, machine learning, or a related field.

  • Experience in the full lifecycle of developing, deploying, and maintaining large-scale cloud production systems, demonstrating expertise in scalability, reliability, and performance optimization

Why Robotics Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Robotics used to be the domain of mechanical, electrical and software engineers. In the UK today, robotics is more than motors and control loops — it’s about perception, interaction, trust, regulation and integration into human environments. That evolution means robotics careers are becoming more multidisciplinary. Modern robots interact with people, collect data, operate under constraints, and often assist in safety-critical environments (healthcare, manufacturing, transport). So engineers now collaborate closely with legal, ethical, psychological, linguistic and design experts. In this article, we explore why UK robotics careers are evolving into multidisciplinary roles, how law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design intersect with robotics, and how job-seekers and employers can adapt to this shift.

Robotics Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Robotics Department

Robotics is transforming manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, agriculture, entertainment and more. In the UK, advances in robotics span autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), robotic arms, surgical robotics, drone systems, human-robot interaction, and collaborative robots (cobots). Building effective robotics systems requires not only strong hardware and software, but also finely coordinated teams with clear roles from research through deployment and maintenance. If you’re a candidate applying for robotics roles or an employer hiring through RoboticsJobs.co.uk, this guide will help you understand who does what in a mature robotics department, how the lifecycle of a robotics product works, what skills and qualifications UK employers typically expect, what salaries look like, common challenges, and best practices for structuring teams that deliver.

Why the UK Could Be the World’s Next Robotics Jobs Hub

Robotics is reshaping industries—manufacturing, health care, agriculture, logistics, and beyond. From industrial robots assembling vehicles to surgical robots assisting complex procedures, and from drone deliveries to autonomous inspection systems, the boundaries of what robots can achieve are expanding daily. With rising demand for automation, productivity, and intelligent systems, organisations both public and private are investing heavily in robotics technologies. This surge in adoption has triggered increased demand for professionals skilled in robotics engineering, AI-enabled control systems, hardware design, and integration. The United Kingdom possesses the essential components to become a global robotics jobs hub: world-class research institutions, innovative robotics firms, strong industrial bases, and supportive policy frameworks. This article explores why the UK is well-positioned, where demand is growing, the career paths emerging, and what must occur to fully establish robotics as a powerhouse in UK employment.
