  • Proficient in Python and JavaScript, with hands-on experience in AI development, including building prototypes using platforms like OpenAI and Anthropic.
  • Strong understanding of AI technologies, including Generative AI, multi-agent architectures, model evaluation, and natural language processing.
  • Experience leading other developers in code reviews, setting coding standards, and ensuring quality software development practices.
  • Ability to design and guide solutions architecture for scalable, secure, and robust AI-driven applications.
  • Experience in collaborating with product teams to integrate AI solutions into digital experiences.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical details to non-technical stakeholders and guide junior engineers.

Richard Branson founded Virgin Atlantic in 1984 with the intention of shaking up the aviation industry. Since then, we've grown from a small team, one 747 plane and a single route, to a global network that employs thousands of wonderful people worldwide.

We're not just your average airline. We're a family-centric one who recognises togetherness as a hugely important aspect of life. We support and care about our employees and their families, which makes Virgin Atlantic a special place to work and the long-haul airline our customers fall in love with.
