Senior AI Developer | Full Stack Development | Azure AI Foundry | Azure AI | Azure ML | RAG | £75,000 - £85,000 | Reading / Manchester We're working with a growing Microsoft Partner that is investing heavily in its AI capability, with a strong pipeline of live projects designing, building and deploying AI agents across the Microsoft ecosystem. They're looking for a hands-on Senior AI Developer to join the team and help deliver secure, production-ready AI applications for their customers. This isn't a pure ML or Data Science position. You'll need a strong background in full-stack software engineering, ideally across one or more of:

• React / Node.js
• .NET / C#
• Python / FastAPI You'll also have commercial experience working with technologies such as:
• Azure AI Foundry and Foundry Agents
• Azure OpenAI
• Azure AI Search
• Cognitive Services
• Azure Machine Learning
• RAG and agentic workflows You'll work directly with customers, turning business requirements into practical solutions and taking projects from initial concept through to production. Beyond project delivery, you'll have the opportunity to shape how the business approaches AI-powered software development—creating reusable components, establishing best practices and helping build a new service line within the Microsoft Partner channel. Previous experience within a Microsoft Partner, MSP or consultancy would be useful, but genuine hands-on development experience is the priority. 📍 Hybrid working from Reading or Manchester 💷 Up to £85,000 initially, with flexibility for highly capable candidates If you're a strong software engineer who is already building with AI, rather than simply learning about it, please apply or get in touch for more information.
