About the Role
The Opportunity
A global, market-leading organization is building out its next-generation AI capabilities and is looking for an AI Engineer with a strong focus on bringing AI into production at scale.
This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, applied AI, and platform engineering. While there is exposure to model development, the core value lies in operationalising AI systems, particularly LLM- and GenAI-driven solutions, and embedding them into real business workflows used globally.
You will work closely with product teams, platform engineers, and data science functions to turn prototypes and concepts into robust, secure, and scalable AI services.
Key Responsibilities
-
Design, build, and deploy production-grade AI systems, with a strong focus on LLMs and GenAI use cases (e.g. copilots, assistants, automation, content intelligence)
-
Own the end-to-end lifecycle of AI solutions, from experimentation to deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement
-
Integrate AI services into existing enterprise applications and cloud platforms
-
Build and maintain MLOps pipelines for training, deployment, versioning, monitoring, and retraining
-
Work with Azure-based AI and data services to ensure scalable and compliant deployments
-
Collaborate with data scientists on model handover, optimisation, and inference performance rather than pure research
-
Ensure AI solutions meet enterprise requirements around security, reliability, explainability, and cost efficiency
-
Contribute to internal standards, tooling, and best practices for production AI and GenAI
What You Bring
-
Strong experience as an AI Engineer, ML Engineer, or Software Engineer working with AI systems
-
Proven track record of taking AI models into production in complex environments
-
Hands-on experience with LLMs and GenAI frameworks (e.g. prompt engineering, orchestration, retrieval-augmented generation, agents)
-
Solid background in MLOps (CI/CD for ML, monitoring, model lifecycle management)
-
Practical experience with the Azure stack, such as:
-
Azure ML
-
Azure OpenAI
-
Containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes)
-
Cloud-native services and APIs
-
-
Strong software engineering skills (Python required, additional languages a plus)
-
Ability to work closely with non-technical stakeholders and translate business needs into scalable AI solutions
