Artificial Intelligence Engineer

Company: SR2
Apply for the Artificial Intelligence Engineer
Location: London
Job Description:

Initially till March 2027, rolling extensions expected

Primarily remote, occasional travel to London

Get hands-on with the latest frontier models and put them to work defending government systems.

You’ll join a central government cyber security team taking an AI code-scanning pilot that’s already delivering results and turning it into a live product. This is a forward‑deployed, build‑it‑you‑self role.

What you’ll do

  • Build pipelines that put Claude, OpenAI and other models to work scanning code and spotting vulnerabilities
  • Test, compare and evidence which model performs best for each use case
  • Build data‑driven model evaluation and routing across providers — the best model for the job, no lock‑in
  • Use AI to speed up detection engineering: writing and testing the rules that spot threats
  • Help turn a proven pilot into a service other departments can use

What you’ll bring

  • Active SC clearance (essential)
  • Real experience building with LLM APIs — Anthropic, OpenAI, Bedrock, Azure OpenAI or Vertex
  • Strong Python, plus agents, tool calling and structured outputs
  • An evidence‑first mindset: you prove things work with data
  • You’re a self‑starter who’s happy working independently in a multi‑supplier team

Bonus points: security tooling (Semgrep, Trivy, Gitleaks, CodeQL), detection rules (Sigma, KQL, SPL), GitHub Actions, or model gateways such as LiteLLM.

Good to know: you’ll apply models, not train or fine‑tune them.
