Welcome to Horizon – the future of engineering at Dojo
Horizon Engineering is the home of ambitious problem solvers who want to use AI to make real change happen. We've created this team for graduate engineers who are curious, driven, and ready to move fast. It's for those who want to build AI-led solutions that help Dojo scale smarter, not just bigger.
You'll be part of a small, focused group solving strategic problems across the business—using AI to drive automation, efficiency, and innovation. You'll be trusted to take ownership early and supported by senior engineers and mentors from day one.
We're doing this in partnership with Google, giving you access to cutting-edge tools and infrastructure to work on projects that matter.
What you'll be doing
Tackle Strategic Problem Statements
Work on real business challenges—like improving operations through intelligent automation or using machine learning to speed up decision-making.
Build aienabled tools
Design and implement solutions using AI and ML models, large language models, or data science pipelines that have measurable impact.
Think like a founder deliver like an engineer
This isn't a rotation program. You'll join a team where you're expected to ship code, contribute ideas, and own outcomes.
Partner with google
You'll benefit from our strategic partnership with Google Cloud, helping you work with modern tech stacks and access exclusive tooling and learning opportunities.
Who we're looking for
Strong Technical Foundations
You're studying Computer Science (or a closely related subject) and have a solid understanding of programming, systems, and problem-solving.
UCAS Tariff Points (or equivalent)
We expect a strong academic background. You'll likely have achieved at least 140 UCAS points. We also welcome applicants with alternative qualifications if you can show us your ability through your technical work.
Curious about AI and machine learning
You don't need to be an AI expert yet—but you're eager to learn, experiment, and apply the latest developments to real-world problems.
Creative problem solver
You enjoy exploring different approaches and thinking critically about how to build better systems.
Proactive and selfdirected
You take ownership, challenge assumptions, and look for ways to make things better—not just follow instructions.
Excited by impact
You want to be part of something with purpose—where your work drives real outcomes for teams and customers.

Permanent role with purpose

Dojo home and away
We believe our best work happens when we collaborate in-person. These "together days" foster communication, drive innovation and spark our brightest ideas.
That's why we have an office-first culture. This means working from the office 4+ days per week.
With offices across Europe, we know a thing or two about staying dynamic. Need deep focus? Head to a quiet zone. Big ideas? Collaboration spaces have you covered. Just here for a catch-up? Our social hubs make it easy. Do work that counts, in spaces made for you.
Question what's curious, relentless and customer obsessed

If the following speak to you, let's talk:
- You're curious. You have a real desire to learn and create.
- You're relentless. You keep going even when it's easier not to.
- You're customer-obsessed. You know how important customers are to what you do.
