Join the University of Salford as a Research Fellow (Technical Delivery) building the AI systems at the heart of FOUR4ALL, a Horizon Europe research project focused on working time reduction. This is a hands-on applied AI / LLM engineering role: you'll design, build, and evaluate a bounded conversational AI agent and a public retrieval-augmented (RAG) evidence assistant, working in Python as part of a friendly, multidisciplinary research team. We're looking for someone who understands LLM-based systems as systems – selecting the right model for a task, designing the workflow around it, and testing that it works. We welcome strong applicants at all career stages, including recent Master's graduates.

Note this opportunity may close early depending on application volumes. The successful candidate must be available for an immediate start date.

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver technical, AI-assisted solutions across the project – principally two core systems (a controlled conversational interview agent and a RAG-based public evidence assistant), alongside wider NLP / AI-assisted analysis of research evidence as the project develops.
• Design, build, and evaluate reliable, well-tested LLM applications in Python, selecting and integrating appropriate models and building clean, accessible interfaces.
• Deploy and operate both systems on EU-hosted infrastructure – with monitoring and ongoing support – within strict ethical and regulatory requirements (EU AI Act, GDPR).
• Work closely with technical and non-technical colleagues – researchers, project partners, and end users – translating research needs into working tools.

About the School

Science, Engineering and Environment is an applied science and engineering faculty creating innovative AI and sustainable technologies collaboratively to deliver meaningful impact with an inclusive and ethical focus. We play a major role in the delivery of the overall teaching, research and innovation activity within the University of Salford. The Faculty has two departments (Computer Science and Engineering; and Built and Natural Environments), supported by knowledgeable professional and technical services teams. Underpinned by thematic research centres and two Innovation Institutes (Energy House and Acoustics), we co-create teaching opportunities with students and apprentices, developing the next generation of engineers and scientists.

As this role is part of the FOUR4ALL project, you will be working closely with colleagues in the Faculty of Social Science, Humanities and the Arts for People and the Economy, who are leading this project.
