Working at BTB.

We're a small team. We hire when there's clear, durable work to be done — not to fundraise on a bigger headcount, not to look serious, not because someone else just hired.

What you can expect

  • Clear ownership — fewer people doing more interesting things. You'll be on the changelog by month two.
  • Honest pay — published bands, no negotiation penalty. Same numbers regardless of where in the UK you live.
  • Calm pace — we don't reward heroics. If something needs heroics it's a system we should fix.
  • Real work — symbolic AI, careful product design, performance engineering. No hype, no thinly-rebranded wrappers around someone else's API.

Open roles

Nothing open right now. We post here when something opens — including the actual brief, the salary band, and the trade-offs you'd be signing up for. No "fast-paced startup" copy.

Speculative

If your work overlaps with ours — symbolic AI, phonetic analysis, lifespan modelling, careful product or research engineering — and you'd like to be on a list when something opens, write to careers@beyond-the-box.uk with a paragraph about what you'd want to work on. Two paragraphs is plenty.

We read every email and we keep the list short. Read our commitments first →
