About Synextra
Synextra is a premier Managed Service Provider specializing in Microsoft technologies, based in Warrington. We partner with regulated mid-market organizations, including law firms, financial services, and mortgage lenders. Our team is intentionally compact, consisting of around 35 dedicated professionals, as we believe that technical depth leads to superior outcomes. Our rapidly expanding AI Services Division is dedicated to developing and implementing intelligent solutions for clients across the UK. This position offers a unique opportunity to influence the architecture, standards, and products of our AI function from within.
The Role
As a Senior AI Engineer, you will spearhead the technical architecture of Synextra's AI platform. Your responsibilities will include designing scalable systems, making critical technical decisions across our Python and TypeScript stack, and developing solutions that operate securely and cost-effectively within our Azure environment. This hands-on role sits at the intersection of software engineering and applied AI, where your architectural choices will have a direct impact on the solutions we deliver to clients.
Your daily tasks will encompass the entire delivery lifecycle: designing backend systems with multi-agent orchestration pipelines and RAG patterns, crafting high-performance React frontends that highlight AI-driven insights, and collaborating with customers, product owners, and infrastructure specialists to integrate generative AI into practical business workflows. You will oversee the end-to-end technical delivery of our most ambitious projects.
This position is ideal for individuals who excel in tackling complex distributed systems challenges, stay current with the evolving AI landscape, and seek true autonomy in their work. Additionally, you will take on a mentorship role, elevating the engineering standards across the team and advocating for Responsible AI practices as we scale.
