Actively hiring Posted about 1 month ago

Role overview

Our purpose - with you today, for a better tomorrow – is a promise we make to our colleagues too. And one of the ways we live up to that promise is by investing in you. We have so much to offer when it comes to being an Aviva colleague.

What we're looking for

  • Proven ability to recruit, develop and inspire high-performing engineers, set direction through design/code review, and ship secure, scalable products.
  • Significant experience building production systems with LLMs and agents, including prompt engineering and retrieval-augmented generation, plus hands-on use of orchestration frameworks (for example LangGraph or LangChain).
  • Strong Python with experience in ML libraries and toolchains, with the ability to engineer maintainable, testable services (not just notebooks or prototypes).
  • Experience designing and shipping cloud-native, API-led services, with cloud infrastructure expertise (AWS, Azure, or GCP) plus Docker and Kubernetes.
  • Strong DevSecOps practices (CI/CD, automated testing, security scanning, infrastructure as code), with an ability to optimise performance, resiliency and cost, and a solid awareness of responsible AI, data protection and regulatory expectations.

We’re inclusive and welcome everyone – we want applications from all backgrounds and experiences. Excited but not sure you tick every box? Even if you don’t, we would still encourage you to apply. We also consider all forms of flexible working, including part time and job shares.

We flex locations, hours and working patterns to suit our customers, business, and you. Most of our people are smart working – spending at least 50% of their time in our offices every week - combining the benefits of flexibility, with time together with colleagues.

We'd love it if you could submit your application online. If you require an alternative method of applying, or if you have any queries in relation to the vacancy, please send an email to [email protected]
