Python Developer

We are working with a major Belfast-based organisation that is building out a serious AI capability and looking for someone who can sit across software engineering, cloud engineering and AI delivery.

You will be joining at a point where the AI function is still being shaped, so there is a genuine opportunity to influence how things are built. The work is practical, production-focused and properly backed, rather than being a small internal experiment or a bit of AI bolted onto an existing team.

It is a good fit for someone who wants to move closer to AI without leaving behind serious Python, AWS and cloud engineering work.

The role also comes with a hybrid working model and one of the strongest benefits packages we have seen in the Belfast market.

What the role involves

You will be working on AI-enabled products and platforms in a high-scale, high-trust environment where security, reliability and engineering standards genuinely matter.

The work sits across:

• Infrastructure as code
• Turning business problems into working technical solutions

One day you could be designing an AI-enabled solution with stakeholders, the next you could be building Python services, improving AWS deployment patterns, or helping get something production-ready.

What you will be doing

• Designing and building AI-enabled solutions that solve real business problems
• Developing software and automation using Python
• Working heavily with AWS across cloud services, deployment and platform design
• Using infrastructure as code, ideally Terraform
• Helping shape secure, scalable and reliable AI platforms
• Working with technical and non-technical stakeholders to understand requirements and turn them into solutions
• Contributing to engineering standards, architecture decisions and delivery approach
• Keeping pace with emerging AI tools and identifying where they can add practical value

You do not need to come from a pure AI background, but you do need strong engineering fundamentals.

Ideally, you will have:

• Strong AWS experience
• Experience with Terraform or similar infrastructure as code tools
• A background across software engineering, cloud engineering, platform engineering or DevOps
• An interest in AI, machine learning, LLMs or automation
• Experience building secure, scalable systems
• The ability to work with stakeholders and translate problems into technical solutions
• A pragmatic mindset: someone who can experiment, but still build properly for production
