About Us

Have you ever wanted to build something that doesn’t just improve the status quo, but makes it 100x better? Not just a small step forward, but a complete reinvention. That’s what we’re doing, and we need the best people to help us make it happen.

We’re an early-stage start-up out of London working at the intersection of system design, cloud infrastructure, and AI to accelerate the adoption of modern tools and technologies. Our goal is nothing less than to enable businesses of all sizes and shapes to leverage best-of-class technologies and the latest advancements in GenAI — including agentic frameworks.

We’ve recently launched the beta version of ourproduct, having raised a hefty pre-seed fund from Tier 1 investors with additional contributions from some brilliant angels to bring the vision to life. We are now in delivery mode and have already partnered with 20+ world-renowned brands to bring the product to market.

Sounds exciting? This is a rare opportunity to join at the earliest stage and help build the foundations of a generational product.

The Role

We’re looking for anAI Engineer with deep experience in applied sub-fields such asrecommender systems,retrieval-augmented generation (RAG),agentic AI, orautomated decision-making to drive the development of our core product: Dragonfly’s tool stack recommender engine.

This role sits at the intersection of data science, product engineering, and systems design. You’ll work closely with our engineers, designer, and leadership team to evolve the intelligence layer of our platform — shaping models, experimenting with LLMs, building scalable data pipelines, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with applied AI.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Owning and evolving the intelligence layer of our recommender system.
Designing and implementing AI/ML systems that scale gracefully.
Applying and iterating on LLMs and data-driven approaches to improve recommendations.
Rapidly experimenting with RAG, search algorithms, and agentic architectures.
Debugging complex model behaviours and improving reliability and observability.
Staying on top of the latest research and applying it pragmatically.
Collaborating cross-functionally to make complex ideas simple and actionable.
Shipping fast, learning faster, and iterating on user and stakeholder feedback.

We Are Looking For Someone Who:

Has hands-on experience withsearch and information retrieval, including BM25, hybrid search, and ranking metrics (nDCG, Reciprocal Rank, etc.).
Understandsrecommender systems, from collaborative filtering to modern RAG pipelines.
Knows how to designagentic LLM systems, balancing cost, latency, and performance.
Is familiar withobservability frameworks such as Langfuse, LangSmith, or OpenTelemetry.
Has worked withknowledge graphs andgraph databases.
Is comfortable withMLOps workflows — Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, and cloud environments.
Communicates clearly, collaborates actively, and moves fast without breaking quality.
Is curious, pragmatic, and resourceful — figuring things out even when the path isn’t obvious.
Has strong opinions about code quality but knows when speed matters.

Our Stack 💻

Our stack is constantly evolving, but here’s a flavour of what we’re using. We don’t expect you to know everything — but curiosity, adaptability, and the ability to leverage AI tools to learn fast are must-haves.
