Key skills for this role
Oxford Dynamics is at an inflection point.
We build frontier AI for environments where the cost of a wrong decision is high: defence and national security, critical infrastructure, and commercial organisations making high-stakes decisions on complex data. We are growing fast, and the constraint on how fast is no longer ideas or opportunity. It is whether the systems we ship are good enough for the people who stake decisions on them.
That is where you come in. We need engineers who can build the systems this mission depends on, and build them to a standard that holds when the answer has to be right. You will be trusted to own real systems end-to-end, held to a single high standard, and judged on one thing above all: whether what you ship earns the confidence people place in it when the decision matters.
If you are the kind of engineer who builds rather than assembles, who wants your work measured by whether it holds up in production rather than whether it demos well, and who wants to see the direct line from your work to systems people depend on, we would love to hear from you.
Founded in 2019, Oxford Dynamics is a fast-growing UK frontier technology company developing both digital and physical AI systems built to operate in dynamic, mission-critical environments.

More from this employer
At the core of everything we build is AVIS™ (A Very Intelligent System), our orchestration platform: the intelligence layer that fuses multi-modal data, including text, imagery, telemetry and sensor feeds, so operators can interrogate complex information at speed and make better decisions under pressure. AVIS™ powers our digital decision products, such as ORION for multi-source decision-to-effect, and it powers our physical platforms, including STRIDER for CBRN operations and BARBARIAN for explosive ordnance disposal. The same brain reasons across the screen and the machine.
We work where wrong decisions can be catastrophic. We partner with defence, security and private sector organisations internationally to bring frontier AI into the environments where it matters most, whether that is protecting nations, infrastructure and lives, or transforming how commercial organisations reason over their data and make high-stakes decisions.
A collaborative and supportive attitude to work is essential for this role. You will be expected to operate at multiple levels within the company, with a strong focus on delivery and attention to detail. You will be comfortable working alone, supporting team members as well as interacting with clients if required
• Experience with MLOps/LLMOps (Softwares such as Sagemaker, Kubeflow or ZenML)
• Deployment of on-premise Kubernetes
• Prometheus (or other stacks) observability
• Experience with AWS Karpenter & Compute Optimizer
• Compliance literacy - ISO 27001, NIST SSDF/OWASP SAMM, GDPR basics
An active SC or DV clearance is a strong advantage for this role.
This is a role for engineers who want to build things that matter and see where they land. You will own real systems end-to-end, build and harden the platforms that carry frontier AI into production, and see your work deployed with organisations where getting the answer right matters. Few engineering roles let you say that the thing you built is trusted by people making consequential decisions. If you build to a high bar and want your work to count, we would love to meet you.
Join one of the most exciting, fastest-growing areas in the world: the convergence of AI and robotics. Every member of the Oxford Dynamics team has a major impact on the products and services we provide. Regardless of job title, you will make a real difference and learn from colleagues across every area of our business.
