About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled Senior AI Engineer to lead the design, development, and deployment of complex AI and machine learning solutions. This role will span the full model lifecycle, from prototyping through to scalable, production-ready systems, including the application of generative AI and large language models (LLMs) to solve business challenges.
The ideal candidate will work closely with data scientists, software engineers, and product teams to turn AI ideas into tangible outcomes, ensuring high performance, maintainability, and responsible use of AI. The main responsibilities include:
* Leading end-to-end design, development, and deployment of AI/ML systems and platforms
* Serving as technical authority on AI engineering practices, frameworks, and infrastructure
* Architecting scalable, maintainable solutions that integrate AI into enterprise applications and workflows
* Collaborating with data, engineering, and product teams to translate models into production-grade AI systems
* Setting engineering standards, code quality practices, and MLOps approaches to ensure reliability and reproducibility
* Identifying and mitigating technical risks related to AI model performance, bias, and data integrity
* Driving automation across data, model, deployment, and core business processes to streamline operations and reduce manual effort
* Mentoring and guiding AI and integration engineers to strengthen delivery capabilities
* Staying current on emerging AI technologies, tools, and architectural patterns
Requirements
The successful candidate will have:
* A strong software engineering foundation, including experience with design patterns and testing strategies
* Hands-on experience deploying AI/ML models in production environments, including model serving, monitoring, and lifecycle management
* Hands-on experience with genAI, LLMs, or fine-tuning foundation models on cloud platforms (preferably AWS)
* Solid understanding of MLOps practices, tools, and CI/CD pipelines
* Demonstrated ability to mentor and coach engineers
* Strong grasp of AI-related risks and governance, including model bias, fairness, and explainability
* Contribution to open-source AI/ML projects or participation in the broader AI engineering community
