💭 Not every AI success story starts with a chatbot. Timefold’s €13m Series A points to a more practical phase of AI adoption, where investors are backing infrastructure that solves expensive operational problems such as scheduling, workforce planning and resource allocation. These may not be the loudest use cases in the market, but they are often where organisations find the clearest commercial gains. For technology leaders, that creates a different hiring challenge. Success increasingly depends on people who can combine machine learning, data engineering and domain expertise, then apply that knowledge to real business constraints. The companies creating lasting value from AI will not always be the ones with the most advanced models. They will be the ones with teams capable of applying AI to the right problems.

Recruitment moves quickly. So does your inbox. 📥 A delayed reply can mean a missed shortlist, a slower hiring process, or a candidate cooling off before the first conversation even happens. For candidates, recruiters and hiring teams alike, response time can change the outcome.

We're launching our second Recruitment Academy of 2026 on 14th September, and we're hiring now for both Trust In SODA and Broadgate in our London HQ. Having seen the success of our previous academy intake, I'm excited to be speaking with candidates who are looking for a career where their ambition, resilience, and people skills can truly make an impact. One thing that stood out from our last academy cohort was the variety of backgrounds they came from. They didn't all follow the same path, have the same experience, or come from the same industry. What they did have in common was: ✅ A genuine drive to succeed ✅ Strong communication skills ✅ Resilience when facing challenges ✅ Curiosity and a willingness to learn ✅ Competitive spirit and ambition ✅ The ability to build relationships and earn trust ✅ A positive attitude and strong work ethic ✅ A desire to be part of a collaborative, high-performing team That's what we look for. At Trinnovo Group | B Corp™, you'll join an award-winning, B Corp-certified business with industry-leading training, clear progression opportunities, and the chance to build a successful career with either Trust in SODA or Broadgate. 📍 London HQ 📅 Academy starts: 14th September 2026 Apply here: 🔹 Trust in SODA Trainee Consultant: https://lnkd.in/ejv_ENrq 🔹 Broadgate Trainee Consultant: https://lnkd.in/e7KHXfvC Or feel free to reach out to me directly at aaron.gonsalves@trinnovo.com for a confidential conversation.

AI infrastructure is getting a lot simpler. AWS has launched the next generation of OpenSearch Serverless, built specifically for agentic AI workloads. The headline isn't just faster scaling or lower costs. It's what happens when teams can deploy search and vector infrastructure in minutes rather than spending weeks managing environments. As more organisations move from AI experimentation to production, infrastructure complexity is becoming a bottleneck. The businesses moving fastest are reducing operational overhead and giving engineering teams more time to focus on products, data, and customer outcomes. That creates a new challenge: finding engineers who can build scalable AI systems, retrieval architectures, and production-grade agentic applications. The technology is becoming more accessible. The talent capable of delivering it is still in short supply. If you're building AI, data, or platform engineering teams this year, contact the Trust in SODA team to discuss how we're helping businesses secure the talent needed to turn AI investment into commercial outcomes. https://lnkd.in/eG-6fRNZ Read the full InfoQ article here: https://lnkd.in/ekwuwc-E
