Software Engineer (AI & Workflow Automation) Location: North West (Remote) Type: Permanent Salary: Up to £65,000 + bonus and more

I'm working with a fast-growing UK software company that's building automation and AI products to cut out repetitive work and free people up for what actually matters. They've kept their startup energy - quick to experiment, fast to ship, and genuinely passionate about tech.

They're looking for a software engineer who loves building, tampering, and experimenting. Someone who gets a buzz from automating boring tasks and pushing AI into real-world use.

The role

Build and maintain core platform features (backend, APIs, integrations). Work on AI-driven projects - voice assistants, chatbots, workflow automation. Integrate AI and telephony APIs (e.g. GPT, Deepgram, ElevenLabs). Improve system performance, real-time audio, and reliability. Contribute to deployment (Docker, CI/CD, Linux). Work closely with a flat, remote-first team where ideas move quickly from concept to release.

What they're looking for

Strong skills in PHP (Symfony) and Node.js (Express/WebSockets). Database expertise (MySQL/MariaDB, Redis). Experience with AI/ML APIs, especially conversational AI. Hands-on with telephony/messaging APIs. Solid grounding in Git, testing, debugging, and software best practices. Clear communicator, proactive, and comfortable working remotely.

Nice to have
