Who are we?

Welcome to Multiple (https://themultiple.com), your go-to iGaming service provider. We’re here to empower iGaming operators, allowing them to thrive in such a volatile industry. Our years of expertise, cutting-edge technology, and passion for delivering extraordinary player experiences make us the right choice for any company looking to elevate their success. We offer a range of iGaming offerings such as; Gaming Services, Casino Marketing, Sportsbook Marketing and Operations, Creative, Data and B.I, Operations (CS, RPF, KYC), VIP Management, Acquisition, Social Media, Content, Product, Legal and Compliance.


The Role:

At The Multiple, we are embedding intelligence into every layer of our operations. As an AI Engineer within our Automation & Agentic Systems function, you will design, build, and ship the AI-powered workflows and agentic systems that drive our Casino, Sportsbook, Marketing, Operations, and Compliance functions.

 

Reporting to the Head of AI Automation & Agentic Systems, this is a hands-on builder role for an engineer who thrives on shipping working systems — from deploying and tuning self-hosted open-source models, to designing RAG pipelines, to wiring autonomous agents into real business processes. You will work close to the metal and close to the business: your systems will run in production, serve real teams, and be measured against real ROI.


Key Responsibilities:

Build & Ship AI Systems

  • Design, develop, and deploy AI-driven automations and multi-agent workflows across group functions including Casino, Sportsbook, Marketing, Operations, and Compliance.
  • Integrate hosted AI services (e.g. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) where the capability genuinely justifies the cost, while prioritising self-hosted open-source alternatives for core operational workflows.
  • Deploy, serve, and optimise open-source models (e.g. Llama, Mistral, Qwen, Gemma, Phi families) using frameworks such as vLLM or Ollama, across cloud or on-premise environments.
  • Build and maintain retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines that ground model outputs in company data — including ingestion, chunking, embedding, vector storage, and retrieval quality tuning.
  • Develop orchestration and tooling layers (APIs, agent frameworks, function/tool calling, MCP-style integrations) that connect models to internal systems, data sources, and operational workflows.

Quality, Evaluation & Reliability

  • Implement evaluation harnesses and benchmarks to compare models against task-specific quality, latency, and cost criteria — feeding results into the team's model selection framework.
  • Write production-grade code with appropriate testing, logging, and documentation, following the team's engineering standards for agent design patterns and operational handoff.
  • Instrument workflows with monitoring and observability: uptime, latency, token consumption, failure modes, and cost per workflow.
  • Harden systems against prompt injection, data leakage, and misuse, and adhere to the group's security, access control, and data governance standards — particularly around sensitive player and operational data.

Cost Awareness & Optimisation

  • Apply cost-reduction techniques in your implementations: model routing between self-hosted and third-party tiers, prompt compression, caching, and batching.
  • Track and report the unit economics of the workflows you own, contributing to ROI reporting that links automation output to measurable business outcomes.
  • Proactively identify workflows that can be migrated from paid APIs to self-hosted models as open-source capability matures.

Collaboration & Delivery

  • Work directly with stakeholders across the group's companies to understand processes, identify high-value automation opportunities, and translate them into shipped systems.
  • Operate with a bias for delivery: prototype fast, validate with real users, iterate, and get working systems into production regularly.
  • Document your systems clearly and support smooth operational handoff to the teams that depend on them.
  • Contribute to a culture of knowledge sharing within the automation engineering team — code reviews, internal demos, and technical writing.


Requirements:

  • 3+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 1 year of hands-on work building LLM-based or AI/ML systems in a production environment.
  • Strong programming skills in Python (and ideally TypeScript/JavaScript), including API design and integration work.
  • Practical experience working with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) and/or deploying open-source models with serving frameworks such as vLLM or Ollama.
  • Hands-on experience building RAG pipelines, including embeddings and vector databases (e.g. pgvector, Qdrant, Weaviate, Pinecone, or similar).
  • Familiarity with agentic patterns: tool/function calling, multi-step workflows, agent frameworks (e.g. LangGraph, CrewAI, or custom orchestration).
  • Solid engineering fundamentals: version control, CI/CD, containerisation (Docker), testing, and observability.
  • Comfort working in a fast-moving environment with shifting priorities and a strong output focus.
  • Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
  • High agency and ownership: you can take a vague problem, scope it, and drive it to a shipped, measured system without waiting to be told each step.
  • Comfort with SQL and pulling from data warehouses to feed pipelines and reporting.
  • Fluency with AI-assisted engineering workflows (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, spec-driven development) and using them to ship faster.

Nice to have:

  • Experience in iGaming, fintech, or another regulated, data-intensive industry.
  • Exposure to compliance automation use cases: AML monitoring, responsible gambling tooling, regulatory reporting.
  • Experience with GPU infrastructure, model quantisation, or inference optimisation.
  • Familiarity with workflow automation platforms (e.g. n8n, Temporal, Airflow) and event-driven architectures.
  • Contributions to open-source AI projects or published technical writing on AI systems.


What we Offer:

  • Attractive remuneration package.
  • Monthly bonus based on performance and deposit conversion.
  • Wellness benefit (after probation).
  • Optician/Spectacle and Blue Lens Benefit (after probation).
  • Health Insurance 
  • Breakfast/lunch all week.
  • Monthly snacks allowance.
  • Training support.
  • Refer a friend bonus.
  • Modern office facilities.
  • Exciting Company Events.
  • Relocation package (if applicable). 


You should not apply if...

  • You are uncomfortable with outbound phone-based work and daily performance targets.
  • You prefer a purely reactive customer support role rather than a proactive success and reactivation role.
  • You struggle to receive feedback, coaching, or call-quality reviews.
  • You are not comfortable working in a regulated iGaming environment with strict responsible gambling expectations.
