Mace

Mace combines construction expertise with consultancy to unlock potential in every person or project and redefine the boundaries of ambition. Our values shape the way we consult and define the people we want to join us on our journey.

The role is for a developer specializing in development of applied AI solutions, including knowledge agents embedded in SharePoint. It is a client-facing role supporting fee-earning projects and programmes.

To be considered for this role it is essential that you have the right to work in the UK as sponsorship is not available.

As part of your role, you will interface with the Mace project team and occasionally stakeholders from other organisations, if working on a joint venture project or directly for a client. You will be part of the Digital Centre of Excellence community, sharing knowledge and experience with other Digital professionals. This is an excellent opportunity to learn from and amongst experienced practitioners and further develop your technical skill set.

You’ll Be Responsible For

• Working autonomously on smaller or low complexity projects, or as part of a larger project team responsible for a particular deliverable or area of delivery.
• The principal responsibility of the role is to contribute to the development of digital tools, processes and outputs, including agentic data interfaces, that support the wider project team and enable better delivery of projects for our clients.
• You will be expected to adhere to a structured development lifecycle that includes requirements definition, design, development and testing, user acceptance testing, deployment, handover and post-implementation support.
• You should be able to gather basic requirements and create a task list to manage your own deliverables, including maintaining regular contact with direct stakeholders.
• You will be expected to attend all training and other sessions organised by the centre of excellence, contributing through presentation of sessions or content aligned to your interests.
• You must take responsibility for keeping your knowledge of commercial AI models and tools up to date through self-directed learning and independent exploration of new tools and functionality.
  
  

You’ll Need To Have

• Experience designing and building AI agents or agentic workflows that retrieve, compare, reason over and summarise enterprise content.
• Ability to design traceable outputs with citations and audit trails, with the ability to explain where AI is summarising source material versus creating new content.
• Strong hands-on capability across Microsoft 365, SharePoint, and Power Platform, including some experience of Copilot for 365 and Copilot Studio.
• Ability to build or integrate with document stores, structured registers and unstructured files, including Word, PowerPoint, Excel, PDFs, SharePoint libraries, metadata and version histories.
• Strong general software engineering fundamentals: clean code, modular design, testing, CI/CD, secure deployment and maintainability.
• Ability to estimate cost, usage and operational run-rate for AI solutions.
• A level of comfort designing model-agnostic architectures where required.
• Evidence of building solutions where explainability and adoption matter as much as technical capability.
