About the job

About Abound

At Abound, we are revolutionizing consumer lending across the UK and beyond. By leveraging cutting-edge AI technology and Open Banking data, we enable equitable and affordable personal finance solutions for a wider audience. Unlike traditional lenders who heavily rely on credit scores, we take a comprehensive approach by analyzing spending patterns and repayment capabilities, allowing us to gain deeper insights into each customer's unique financial landscape.


Our success is evident, having issued over £1.3bn in loans with an exceptional credit performance, where the industry anticipates 10 defaults, we experience only 3. We achieved profitability in just 2.5 years post-launch.


Supported by over £2bn in funding from leading investors such as Citi, GSR Ventures, and Deutsche Bank, we are recognized as one of Europe’s fastest-growing fintech companies (Sifted, CNBC). As we expand into new markets and product lines, we are on the lookout for ambitious individuals eager to learn, take initiative, and grow with us.

About The Role

We are seeking a knowledgeable and innovative AI Engineer to join our dynamic global team in Shenzhen. You will be engaged in developing practical Generative AI applications, AI agents, and Python-based automation solutions tailored for the consumer lending sector. This position is perfect for someone who aspires to translate AI capabilities into tangible business outcomes rather than merely creating demos. You will collaborate closely with teams in the UK and Shenzhen to explore, build, evaluate, and integrate AI into customer operations, internal automation, risk workflows, and lending processes.

Your Responsibilities

  • Develop Generative AI and AI agent solutions for customer operations, internal automation, and lending workflows.

  • Design prompts, workflows, and evaluation protocols to enhance the reliability and utility of AI systems.

  • Integrate Large Language Models (LLMs) with internal tools, APIs, databases, and business systems.

  • Write clean, scalable, and maintainable Python code.

  • Rapidly prototype, test concepts, measure impact, and iterate based on real business requirements.

  • Collaborate with teams in the UK and Shenzhen to pinpoint high-value AI use cases.

  • Enhance production reliability via testing, logging, monitoring, fallback handling, and appropriate human review.
