About The Role

FDM is a global business and technology consultancy seeking a Python/AI Developer to work for our Professional Services client. This is initially a 6-month contract with very good prospects to extend and will be a remote role with the odd requirement to visit the London office.

• Design, develop, and integrate AI-driven Use Case workflows for the in-house AgenticAI platform.
• Build clean, modular, and scalable Python components, ensuring maintainability and adherence to coding best practices.
• Develop and deploy services on Azure, leveraging Functions, App Service, storage, databases, and security tooling.
• Implement CI/CD pipelines and container-based deployments to support automated, consistent release processes.
• Write comprehensive unit tests and ensure strong code quality using tools such as pytest, pylint, flake8, and black.
• Implement logging, telemetry, and monitoring to ensure high performance, reliability, and observability across cloud services.
• Collaborate closely with AI engineers and workflow architects to translate business challenges into technical solutions.
• Ensure adherence to secure coding practices, including authentication, credential management, data protection, and API security.
