Software Engineer (Applied AI)

About Euphoric:

Euphoric builds AI-first employee benefits administration software for the world’s largest and most prestigious employers. Born out of Peppy Health — a fast-growing, category-defining Series B startup — we spun out in May 2025 to tackle a far bigger opportunity.

Global employers spend $3–5 trillion on benefits every year. It’s their second-largest cost after payroll — yet the entire category is still running on legacy systems and outdated assumptions. The space is primed for transformation: despite its scale, it’s been almost completely overlooked by AI-first startups. Incumbents — including one U.S. heavyweight with $2B+ in annual revenue — are constrained by archaic tech stacks and can’t move fast enough to innovate.

And this isn’t just a massive market — it’s genuine “tech for good.” Smarter benefits administration, richer analytics, and clearer communication have the power to directly improve the everyday lives, wellbeing, and financial security of millions of employees worldwide.

We’re a sharp, high-velocity team with bold ambitions, obsessed with building category-defining technology and partnering with exceptional people who want their work to truly matter.

We closed our seed round in October 2025 and are building from a position of strength with a long cash runway.

The role:

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to bring their ambition, creativity, and technical prowess to join our high-powered team to build the technology that powers the world’s first lovable, AI-native benefits platform.

You’ll have real ownership, big targets, and a chance to help shape both the work you do and the company in general. We care less about traditional career paths and more about raw talent, bias for action, and how much fire you bring.

What you’ll do:

• Build AI-first features end-to-end: You’ll contribute to the design, deployment, and iteration of our next-generation benefits platform features that leverage personalization, experimentation, and AI/ML methods (e.g. agents/LLMs, recommender systems, reinforcement learning) to enhance user experience in a meaningful business domain.

Skills & experience:

• Industry Experience (2+ years): Prior experience contributing to impactful products in fast-paced or startup environments, with an understanding of both scale and quality from larger tech organisations.
• Hands-On Full Stack Skills: Proficiency in React/Typescript and/or Python (RESTful APIs, data pipelines), plus comfort with deploying and maintaining services on modern cloud platforms (GCP preferred, AWS or Azure also fine).
• Applied AI/ML Skills: First-hand experience building and delivering AI/ML features to real users, and an insatiable curiosity to keep up with emerging technologies and trends

What we look for:

We’re a great bunch but we have some "Euph" cultural non-negotiables. To do well here you will:

• Thrive in fast-paced, feedback-rich environments
• Take your work seriously, but not yourself
• Be proactive, playful, and deeply curious
• Want to build something that matters
• Be willing to “do what it takes”

What you’ll get:

• Salary between £90k - £110k dependent on experience
• Remote-first setup with optional shared work space pass and hubs in London (We will only consider UK or Europe based candidates, with a preference for those closer to London)
• Apple devices and the best AI tooling
• Private healthcare via Vitality
• 3% employer pension contribution (min 3% employee contribution)
• Meaningful early-stage share opportunities
• 25 days holiday per year, plus bank holidays
• Career rocket fuel - real growth, real ownership, real impact
