Lots of AI projects stall at the proof-of-concept stage. We are looking for a Senior AI Engineer who can and have taken projects all the way to production.

In this role, you’ll take AI from first idea to a solution in production that makes a real difference to the business. You’ll work alongside experienced AI professionals, providing technical leadership and expert advice. Some days you’ll be prototyping a new GenAI idea.

  • Quickly prototyping new ideas to test what’s worth pursuing
  • Handling and preparing data; connecting AI to the systems people already use
  • Shipping production-quality code using version control, testing, CI/CD and automated deployment
  • Testing for accuracy, bias, hallucination and safety, because how we build AI matters
  • Keeping an eye on performance, drift, cost and impact, and always looking for ways to improve
  • Helping shape responsible AI through security, privacy, governance and clear documentation

What you’ll bring

  • Around 6+ years in AI/ML engineering, with work you’re proud of
  • Experience leading a workstream, guiding staff, providing advice and guidance
  • Strong Python and software engineering skills
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs, RAG, embeddings, agents and GenAI patterns

  • An understanding of how AI fits into enterprise systems and architecture
  • Experience with SAS, Teradata, Cloudera Machine Learning (CML) or Red Hat OpenShift
