The organisation promotes a collaborative environment where learning happens through hands-on delivery and shared experience. You'll ideally bring experience in most of the following: *\* Strong programming experience with .NET \ Good JavaScript / TypeScript experience (ideally React / Node) *\* Cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure or GCP \ Infrastructure as Code (Terraforms and Kubernetes preferred) *\* Microservices architecture Highly desirable experience includes: \ Previous work within a technical consultancy *\* Software architecture or project leadership exposure \ Experience with a variety of programming languages (Python, Kotlin) This role would suit someone who enjoys solving complex problems , influencing technical direction, and continuing to grow their career within a collaborative consultancy environment. The company supports remote-first working across Scotland, with engineers aligned to their London tech hub. You'd typically visit the office once a month for team collaboration and project kick-offs. In return, they offer a salary of £60k-£75k plus a strong benefits package. If you'd like to learn more, please apply or reach out to Doug Paget at Cathcart Technology via LinkedIn.

Build a high-performance Runtime/Framework that defines the next-generation Serverless AI foundation through elastic scaling, cold start optimization, batch processing, function-based inference, request orchestration, dynamic decoupled deployment, and other features to support performance scenarios such as multiple models, multi-tenancy, and high concurrency.

Key Requirements:

• Strong foundational knowledge in system architecture, or computer architecture, operating systems, and runtime environments;
• Hands-on experience with Serverless architectures and cloud-native optimization technologies such as containers, Kubernetes, service orchestration, and autoscaling
• vLLM, SGLang, Ray Serve, etc.); understand common optimization concepts such as continuous batching, KV-Cache reuse, parallelism, and compression/quantization/distillation
• Proficient in using Profiling/Tracing tools; experienced in analyzing and optimizing system-level bottlenecks regarding GPU utilization, memory/bandwidth, Interconnect Fabric, and network/storage paths
• Proficient in at least one system-level language (e.g., C/C++, Go, Rust) and one scripting language (e.g., Python)

An established UK tech consultancy is expanding its engineering function and is looking for several Senior Software Engineers (.Net / TypeScript) to join during an exciting growth phase. The company delivers cloud-native solutions using modern technologies and supports remote-first working across Scotland. Having operated successfully for several years, they're now investing heavily in building out their Scottish engineering presence, making this a great time to join and help shape a growing function. Engineering excellence sits at the core of the company. They work with modern technologies and are looking for engineers who value strong software fundamentals, maintain high coding standards, and enjoy keeping up with evolving tech trends. Their tech stack is broad, though current projects are heavily focused on Microsoft technologies and TypeScript (React / Node). As projects are delivered end-to-end, teams work with a DevOps mindset - '*You build it, you own it*' - meaning engineers are actively involved with cloud platforms and infrastructure as code throughout delivery. The variety of project work means there's strong opportunity to learn new technologies, gain exposure to multiple industries, and take on additional technical or leadership responsibilities over time. The organisation promotes a collaborative environment where learning happens through hands-on delivery and shared experience. *You'll ideally bring experience in most of the following:* \*\* Strong programming experience with .NET \*\* Good JavaScript / TypeScript experience (ideally React / Node) \*\* Cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure or GCP \*\* Infrastructure as Code (Terraforms and Kubernetes preferred) \*\* Microservices architecture *Highly desirable experience includes:* \*\* Previous work within a technical consultancy \*\* Software architecture or project leadership exposure \*\* Experience with a variety of programming languages (Python, Kotlin) This role would suit someone who enjoys solving complex problems, influencing technical direction, and continuing to grow their career within a collaborative consultancy environment. The company supports remote-first working across Scotland, with engineers aligned to their London tech hub. You'd typically visit the office once a month for team collaboration and project kick-offs. In return, they offer a salary of £60k-£75k plus a strong benefits package. If you'd like to learn more, please apply or reach out to Doug Paget at Cathcart Technology via LinkedIn.

• Introduce end-to-end monitoring, tracing and alerting for AI workloads
• Improve inference and retrieval performance while reducing operational cost
• Establish fault-tolerant, scalable infrastructure patterns
• Embed security, evaluation and governance into the AI lifecycle
• Build CI/CD pipelines and automation to support continuous model deployment
• Create reusable platform components to accelerate future AI initiatives

Strong experience in:

• Cloud infrastructure engineering (AWS-focused environments)
• Kubernetes, containerisation, and distributed systems
• Terraform / Infrastructure-as-Code
• CI/CD, automation, and platform reliability
• Running production workloads with high availability requirements

Plus, experience with one or more of the following:

• MLOps or ML platform engineering
• RAG architectures, embeddings, or vector search
• Model serving, observability or performance optimisation
• Data / AI workflow orchestration in Databricks or similar ecosystems

Why Join?

• Work on real-world AI systems operating at scale
• Own platform design decisions and influence long-term architecture
• Blend modern DevOps practices with cutting-edge Generative AI use cases
• Be part of a growing, innovation-driven engineering environment
• Opportunity to define how AI is operationalised across multiple products

If you’re excited by building the infrastructure that makes AI usable, scalable and reliable in production, we’d love to hear from you.
