AI & Automation Specialist

Salary: £45,000 - 83,000 per year

Requirements:

• We care more about what youve built and how you think than years of experience or formal credentials.
• Youve used Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, or similar tools to build something real that solved an actual problem.
• You are comfortable in Python, or willing to become comfortable within weeks.
• You have basic API fluency: you can read documentation, make a request, parse the response, and chain a few calls.
• You are familiar with at least one LLM API and understand structured prompting and output.
• You have a bias to ship and prefer getting a rough version in front of users quickly over waiting for perfection.
• You are curious and want to understand how things work, not just use them.
• Nice to have: workflow automation tools such as Zapier, n8n, or Make.
• Nice to have: Retool, Gradio, or similar lightweight UI frameworks.
• Nice to have: Git, basic SQL, or comfort with JSON/CSV at scale.
• Nice to have: exposure to payments, fraud, compliance, or risk operations.
• Nice to have: a portfolio, GitHub, or demo you can walk us through.

Responsibilities:

• Use AI-assisted development tools such as Cursor and Claude Code to prototype and ship tools for operational teams quickly.
• Build workflow automations that connect case management systems, document stores, APIs, and LLMs into end-to-end pipelines.
• Create analyst-facing interfaces, triage tools, and summary generators using self-built applications, Retool, or similar tools.
• Apply LLMs where they reduce cognitive load, including classification, case summarisation, structured extraction, and decision support.
• Embed with Disputes, CDD, Periodic Review, and Transaction Monitoring teams to understand how analysts actually work.
• Translate vague pain points into shipped tools in days or weeks rather than quarters.
• Demo early and iterate based on what analysts actually use versus ignore.
• Treat every tool as a product by instrumenting usage, capturing feedback, and measuring time saved or quality gained.
• Document what we build and share reusable patterns so good ideas compound.
