Head of AI Product Engineering
London (4/5 days pw on-site)
Up to £210k + equity

A newly formed role with a huge remit to bring the product roadmap to life.
Opportunity to transform cutting-edge AI research into tangible products.
Initial customers consist of AI frontier labs and big tech companies.
I’m looking for a Product Engineering Lead or Head of Product Engineering to join one of the most exciting AI companies in London right now. You’ll enjoy a huge amount of autonomy and the opportunity to not just build a suite of customer-facing AI products but also build out the entire product engineering function.

You'll need to be someone who thinks deeply about the future of AI, ideally with a track record of publicly engaging on topics such as AGI or frontier AI applications. You’ll need to demonstrate both technical insight and thoughtful consideration of the biggest challenges that lie ahead.

Given how important this role is to the success of the business, the requirements are extensive, but feel free to apply even if you don’t hit 100% of the requirements below.

Essential:

Strong engineering background (ideally Python and React) ***
Experience building AI products from scratch.
Background working in high-growth startups/scaleups.
Experience developing products using cutting-edge research or working with highly ambiguous requirements.
Solid background developing a successful go-to-market strategy and defining an AI product roadmap.
Experience building and leading engineering teams.
Thoughtful about the future of AI, with public work on AGI or frontier applications a strong plus.
*** If you’re not from an engineering background, it might not be a deal breaker as there is scope to build out an engineering function around you, but if that is the case, you will need a super impressive background as an AI product leader.

Bonus requirements:

Experience building multi-agent systems.
LLM evals knowledge.
Deep interest in AI alignment and safety.
Have previously founded/co-founded an AI/ML startup and understand the challenges of taking something from 0 to 1.
Experience executing deals worth millions of £££.
If the idea of working closely with the AI frontier labs (Open AI, Anthropic, etc) excites you, and you have a background in building AI/ML products from scratch and taking them to market, then this could be the role you’ve been looking for.

N.B. This role does have a heavy on-site requirement. You will need to be happy with being in the office the majority of the week. There is a degree of flexibility week to week, but it’s certainly not a remote position or one you can get away with 1-2 days a week in the office.

Where to Advertise Edge Computing Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising edge computing jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Edge computing sits at the intersection of embedded systems, networking, cloud infrastructure and real-time data processing — and the professionals who specialise in it are a small, highly technical community not well served by general job boards. Candidates with genuine edge and IoT expertise are rarely browsing general platforms, and roles in this space are frequently misunderstood or miscategorised by non-specialist recruiters. This guide, published by EdgeComputingJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise edge computing roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Edge Computing Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Shaping Edge Innovation

Edge computing is transforming how data is processed by bringing compute power closer to the source of generation. With the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT), real‑time analytics, autonomous systems, and latency‑sensitive applications, edge computing has moved from a niche discipline to a core component of digital infrastructure. In 2026, organisations that specialise in or heavily invest in edge computing are expanding their teams to build distributed systems, real‑time analytics platforms, and edge‑optimised AI. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.EdgeComputingJobs.co.uk , understanding which employers are growing, winning contracts, or securing investment is essential. This article highlights the new and high‑growth edge computing employers to watch in 2026, including UK startups, international innovators with a UK presence, and established companies shifting strategy toward edge.

How Many Edge Computing Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an Edge Computing Job?

If you’re trying to start or grow a career in edge computing, it can feel like you’re navigating a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms — Kubernetes, Docker, IoT frameworks, AWS Greengrass, Azure IoT Edge, OpenShift, TinyML toolkits, networking orchestration, real-time streaming frameworks, and on it goes. Scroll job boards and community forums and it’s easy to conclude that unless you master every buzzword imaginable, you’ll never get a job. Here’s the honest truth most edge computing hiring managers won’t necessarily say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every edge computing tool — they hire you because you can solve real system problems using the tools you know. Tools matter, yes — but only when they support clear outcomes: reliable systems, performance at scale, secure edge deployments and real business value. So how many edge computing tools do you actually need to know to secure a job? For most edge computing roles, the answer is fewer than you think — and a lot clearer when sorted by fundamentals and roles. This guide shows you what matters, what doesn’t, and how to focus your time wisely so you come across as capable, confident and employable.
