What we are building

Mimica's mission is to empower enterprises, teams, and individuals to reclaim their most precious resource — time and work more efficiently, with greater purpose and impact.

Our AI-powered task mining observes employee actions across the desktop and categorizes them into detailed process maps. Mimica’s process intelligence highlights inefficiencies, prioritizes improvements based on ROI, recommends the optimal technology for automation (RPA, intelligent document processing, GenAI), and provides a blueprint for building new automations and transforming work.

What you will own

In this role, you will own and support the development of our data orchestration and processing pipeline.

You will build apps and core components of our ML systems, deliver new AI features and drive improvements to our infrastructure and services.

You will join the Data Intelligence Team, whose goal is to provide ML-enriched data for downstream tasks and ensure user data privacy. You‘ll have the opportunity to shape our technical direction, architecture processes and culture.

What you will be doing
  • Write Python applications that are resilient, robust, and integrate well with other apps in a service architecture.

  • Furthering Developer Experience (DevEx) by mentoring others in writing code that is intuitive, clear, and easy to test

  • Developing observability for new and existing ML applications and GenAI/LLM integrations, making use of the Grafana Stack (Prometheus, Loki, Tempo)
    Develop integrations and services that communicate with GKE and Google Services.

  • Working closely with Data Scientists and ML Engineers throughout the lifecycle of productionising their models

  • Being responsive to incidents regarding ML applications - including an understanding of how to triage and resolve issues relating to CPU, memory, and GPU utilisation

  • Documenting procedures and guides to facilitate knowledge sharing and help other engineers level up through pairing and mentoring

  • Participating in hiring and onboarding new team members; taking on end-to-end project management responsibilities as we grow.

What we're looking for
  • Strong proficiency with Python and Backend-Engineering

  • Experience owning projects from start to finish, including speccing, architecture, development, testing, deployment, release and monitoring

  • Strong skills in building maintainable tests, observability and tracing systems.

  • Knowledge of best practices for performance optimisation, memory management.

  • Familiarity with Kubernetes, Docker and other cloud infrastructure, ops and containerised tools.

  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills – methodically decomposing systems to identify bottlenecks, determine root causes, and implement effective solutions.

  • Drive to continually develop your skills, improve team processes and reduce technical debt.

  • Fluency in English and ability to effectively communicate abstract ideas, complex concepts and trade-offs.

Nice to have:
  • Having been a founding/early member of an Engineering team

  • Experience working within a fast-growing Scale-up environment – delivering value quickly and iteratively

  • Experience with GCP

What We Do

Every year billions of hours of human creativity are wasted on repetitive work, such as data entry, form completion, and claim processing. At Mimica, we believe drudgery should be left to machines; humans deserve better. That's why we are developing a new paradigm for automation: our AI learns to perform tasks through observation.

Our software eliminates the need for teams of developers to explicitly program every action users perform, saving months of manual effort and hundreds of thousands of pounds in costs. We flip the traditional paradigm and make automation accessible to everyone.

Imagine your computer learning to take care of your work for you. That's the future we're building.
