Contract Golang Engineer – AI for Defence
£700–800/day | Inside IR35 | Hybrid / Secure Site | SC/DV Cleared | UK Nationals Only
Initial 3-month contract (extensions expected up to 12 months)
Join a ground-breaking AI programme delivering national security impact.
We’re working with a leading UK AI firm on a mission-critical Defence deployment. This greenfield build calls for a Golang specialist to help deliver backend systems that support real-time inference, transcription pipelines, and natural language interaction – all under tight performance and security constraints.
Your Role:
* Build high-performance services using Golang in secure environments
* Develop ingestion and processing pipelines for transcription and structured/unstructured data
* Contribute to intelligent data flows including graph-based and RAG inference pipelines
* Expose well-structured APIs to support real-time dashboards and NLP workflows
* Deploy and scale systems using Kubernetes and Docker
* Collaborate with platform and data science teams to optimise model integration and system performance
Your Experience:
* Advanced Golang engineering background, ideally in distributed or secure systems
* Solid experience with Kubernetes, orchestration tooling (e.g. Argo), and Kafka or equivalent
* Strong database knowledge (Postgres preferred)
* Ability to design and scale APIs and backend pipelines for data-rich environments
* Bonus: Familiarity with RAG pipelines, transcription tooling, vector DBs, or LLM deployment
* Bonus: Prior experience within Defence, aerospace, or highly regulated industries
Why It Stands Out:
This isn’t a generic software build. You’ll help deliver a real-time AI system supporting operational decision-making for Defence stakeholders. With direct impact, secure site exposure, and complex engineering challenges, this contract offers an unmatched opportunity for cleared engineers.
