Redgate

AT A GLANCE Location: Cambridge In-office expectation: Once every two weeks Employment type: Permanent Salary: £55,000-£80,000 This role will be a mid or senior level engineer dependant on experience WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS Redgate's Foundry is our innovation incubator, the team scanning the horizon for Redgate's next big opportunity. This role exists because that kind of work needs engineers who are genuinely excited by discovery: people who can form a hypothesis, test it fast, and make a clear-eyed call on whether to push forward or change course. Most ideas won't become products. That's by design. Each experiment sharpens our thinking and improves the odds of finding the one that will. If you're motivated by that kind of challenge, where the destination isn't fixed and the work is never the same twice, this is the role for you. ABOUT REDGATE Redgate brings together people who want to do their best work in an environment built on trust, accountability, and collaboration. We build solutions that help data professionals securely manage the data and databases that their organisations depend on, a space that's only becoming more critical as systems scale, data regulations increase, and AI adoption accelerates. AI AT REDGATE By 2028, Redgate will operate as an expert plus agent company: domain experts amplified by AI, delivering customer value at a pace our peers can't match. AI handles the heavy lifting, and our people control the judgement. Everyone at Redgate works with Claude, giving you access to the best AI tools from day one. WHY JOIN OUR ENGINEERING TEAM? * You'll work in a team that cares about collaboration, craft and quality, not just in how we build, but in choosing what to build, finding the shortest path to the questions that matter most. * There’s real scope to grow your skills and impact, with clear pathways and support. * We value sustainable delivery, good ways of working and time to improve how we build. ABOUT THE ROLE The Foundry operates differently to the rest of Redgate's product teams. You won't be handed a roadmap. Instead, you'll work across the full arc of innovation — from horizon-scanning and ideation through to early-stage research, rapid prototyping, and working directly with customers to validate what you're building. You'll be part of a small cross-functional team (a Tech Lead plus four to six Software and Machine Learning Engineers), and you'll regularly run projects in parallel: contributing to ongoing experiments while also exploring entirely new directions. The tech stack is deliberately varied, the right tool for the job, not a fixed list, spanning C#, TypeScript, Python, and more across desktop, web, API, database, and ML development. What makes this role different: * You'll work on problems where there is no established answer and you'll have the autonomy to explore them seriously. * Your work sits at the intersection of software engineering, customer insight, and product thinking; it's rare to find all three in one role. * You'll use and help shape how Redgate adopts agentic coding and AI development tools, not as an afterthought, but as a core part of how the team works. * The scope is genuinely broad: a typical day could see you balancing technical prototypes, customer interviews, and competitor teardowns. WHAT MAKES YOU A GREAT FIT * Proven experience using AI coding tools. You've used them extensively, understand their limitations, and have developed ways to work around them productively and safely. * Strong software design and coding skills across modern languages, particularly C#, TypeScript, or Python, enough to guide and review AI-generated code with confidence. * Hands-on experience building agentic systems using frameworks such as LangGraph, Microsoft Agentic Framework, or MCP, with a solid understanding of LLM capabilities and risks. * Experience designing and running experiments to validate ideas quickly, using technical prototypes, customer feedback, and lean startup principles to test assumptions and make clear decisions. * Comfortable engaging directly with customers and stakeholders: running interviews, demos, and concierge-style validation processes, and communicating findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. * A product mindset; you think in terms of user value, outcomes, and market fit, not just features or technical delivery.

Healx

Do you want to use your engineering skills to build agentic workflows that help find treatments for rare disease patients?   About Healx Healx is an AI-powered tech bio company that is redesigning drug discovery. With 10,000 rare diseases affecting 400 million people globally, 90% of which have no approved treatment, Healx is on a mission to pioneer the next generation of drug discovery to help rare disease patients in need. We combine data, artificial intelligence and deep pharmacology expertise to develop treatments more quickly and cheaply than traditional drug discovery. Diversity and inclusion sits at the heart of our mission to help people with rare diseases, and we believe that attracting and empowering a diverse team is critical to achieving this goal. We welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and walks of life. Below we have included the qualities that we feel are required for you to excel in this role; however we appreciate that people can apply transferable skills and experience. If you think you have what it takes, love our mission and resonate with our values but are worried you don't tick every box – we still want to hear from you and encourage you to apply! Our values Care for Rare – Rare disease patients are at the heart of what we do  Grow as individuals – We are learners always seeking to enhance our expertise  Win as a team – We strive to remain inclusive and diverse and we celebrate successes and lessons together Innovate and deliver – Our mission requires rapid innovation and calculated risks that won’t compromise our high standards  The role Healx is looking for an Agentic AI Engineer to build LLM-agentic workflows that power our drug discovery platform. Reporting to our Director of Tech Strategy, you'll design and build agents that solve real drug discovery problems. Working closely with scientists across the company, you'll understand the questions that matter most to their work, then design and refine agents that reason over our knowledge graph, proprietary methods, the scientific literature and other sources to generate, triage and rationalise testable therapeutic hypotheses for rare diseases. You won't be starting from scratch. We've adopted an agentic framework (our stack currently includes Python, ADK and AgentSpace) and built workflows already delivering impact across our drug discovery platform. But this is a fast-moving field, so a big part of the role is helping us adapt as the  landscape shifts. You'll work alongside the technical lead who owns our agentic infrastructure, with scope to take ownership of specific workflows and grow your influence as you do. You'll join a cross-functional team of machine learning engineers, software engineers, bioinformaticians, drug discovery scientists and clinicians, all working to  sharpen how Healx  makes better decisions in drug discovery.
