Senior Software Engineer - AI Adoption Product

Multiverse is the upskilling platform for AI and Tech adoption.

We have partnered with 1,500+ companies to deliver a new kind of learning that's transforming today’s workforce.

Our upskilling apprenticeships are designed for people of any age and career stage to build critical AI, data, and tech skills. Our learners have driven $2bn+ ROI for their employers, using the skills they’ve learned to improve productivity and measurable performance.

In June 2022, we announced a $220 million Series D funding round co-led by StepStone Group, Lightspeed Venture Partners and General Catalyst. With a post-money valuation of $1.7bn, the round makes us the UK’s first EdTech unicorn.

But we aren’t stopping there. With a strong operational footprint and 800+ employees, we have ambitious plans to continue scaling. We’re building a world where tech skills unlock people’s potential and output.
Join Multiverse and power our mission to equip the workforce to win in the AI era.

Having built a thriving upskilling apprenticeship business we are now doubling down on our AI strategy with the launch of a groundbreaking AI Adoption Platform. This new venture operates as a ‘startup’ within the business, leveraging Multiverse's established customer base, intellectual property, and experienced team. Our MVP has already demonstrated 7x adoption results in initial pilots by delivering personalized, role- and tool-specific AI use cases and upskilling at scale, enhanced by social features and measurable ROI. We are building a dedicated team to rapidly develop and scale this platform, and we're looking for pioneering individuals to drive its market success from the ground up.

This is a rare opportunity to:

• Develop a category-defining product with proven initial traction into a greenfield UK market

• Solve a massive enterprise pain point that affects every major global company

• Build something from scratch while leveraging proven playbooks and IP

• Shape the future of work in the AI era.

We are building a small foundational team of engineers to build and iterate on our new adoption platform. You’ll be working closely together with our AI Adoption Team to build new features from scratch, quickly iterating to improve them as we get customer feedback and continue to evolve our offer.

This is a fast paced, scrappy and highly collaborative team, working to solve complex and compelling engineering challenges.

Our Commitment to Safeguarding

Multiverse is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our learners. We expect all employees to share this commitment and adhere to our Safeguarding Policy, our Prevent Policy and all other Multiverse company policies. Successful applicants will be required to undertake at least a Basic check via the Disclosure Barring Service (DBS).

For roles that will involve a Regulated Activity, successful applicants must also undergo an Enhanced DBS check, including a Children’s Barred List check and a Prohibition Order check. Roles involving Regulated Activity may interact with vulnerable groups, therefore are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 meaning applicants are required to declare any convictions, cautions, reprimands, and final warnings.

Providing false information is an offence and could result in the application being rejected or summary dismissal if the applicant has been selected, and possible referral to the police and the DBS.
