About the Role

As an AI Engineer, you will build and ship AI-powered features as part of a cross-functional Innovation Squad, working inside a business function. You will deliver the set technical direction to production standard, working autonomously within a defined problem, building and testing tool use, retrieval pipelines and agent workflows, integrating AI capabilities into enterprise systems, and contributing to evaluation, observability and guardrails. You will hold a high bar on code quality, flag risks and blockers early, and work alongside host-function stakeholders to make sure what you build fits real workflows, not assumed ones. You'll also support handover and capability-building so the solution is owned and operable after the squad moves on.

Responsibilities

  • Build prototypes and proofs of concept and ship agentic AI solutions to production standard within a defined technical approach.
  • Implement and test tool use, retrieval pipelines, and agent workflows.
  • Contribute to evaluation, observability and guardrails for agentic systems.
  • Integrate AI capabilities into existing enterprise workflows and systems.
  • Maintain high code quality and documentation so patterns can be reused.
  • Flag technical risks and blockers early.
  • Interface with technical peers to finalise requirements and complete moderately complex bug fixes.
  • Build solutions for reuse, contributing to patterns, reference implementations, and starter kits so work done in one function can be picked up by another.
  • Instrument solutions to capture outcome data against baselines.
  • Work alongside host-function stakeholders to ensure the build fits real workflows, not assumed ones.
  • Support handover and capability-building in the host function so the solution is owned and operable after the squad moves on.
  • Keep abreast of new technology developments.
  • Take on related responsibilities as the squad's needs evolve.

Requirements

  • 3+ years in software engineering, with hands-on experience building LLM-powered applications in production (RAG, tool-augmented agents or agentic workflows).
  • BS in Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
  • Comfortable working autonomously within a defined problem and pushing back when something doesn't make sense, and delivering in short, time-boxed cycles where validated outcomes matter more than perfect solutions.
  • Building RAG pipelines, tool-augmented agents and agentic workflows; familiar with prompt engineering, context management, evaluation and observability.
  • Understand how agents use memory, tools, and retrieval to complete multi-step tasks.
  • Integrating AI into existing systems via APIs and data pipelines.
  • Experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP.
  • Experience with CI/CD, modern SDLC, TDD, and code review.
  • Experience working with relational, columnar and vector stores, grounded in sound data-modelling principles.
  • Proficiency in Python, Java, TypeScript/JavaScript, SQL and relevant AI SDKs.
  • Clear written and verbal communication with technical peers and stakeholders.
  • Instrumenting solutions to capture usage, productivity, and quality metrics against established baselines.
