Description

We’re looking for an Applied AI Engineer to support the design and delivery of AI-powered systems for our clients. You’ll work alongside experienced engineers, data scientists and delivery teams to help build, test and deploy intelligent applications, while developing your technical depth in modern AI engineering practices.

This role is ideal for someone who combines AI/ ML expertise with practical problem solving skills and ability to translate concepts into real world applications.### Key Responsibilities

• Work closely with clients to understand business challenges, define AI use cases, and guide them toward the most appropriate solutions across machine learning and generative AI. Translate technical concepts into clear, actionable recommendations and support clients throughout the delivery lifecycle.
• Design, build, and deploy AI systems, including predictive models, NLP solutions, and generative AI applications such as LLM-based solutions, retrieval-augmented generation pipelines, and agentic workflows.
• Work with large structured and unstructured datasets to prepare, clean, and transform data for both traditional machine learning and generative AI use cases.
• Implement and maintain pipelines for deploying, monitoring, and managing the lifecycle of machine learning models and AI applications using cloud-native tools and frameworks.
• Collaborate with data engineers, data scientists, and cross-functional teams to deliver end-to-end AI solutions, from proof-of-concept and MVP through to production.
• Stay up to date with emerging AI and generative AI technologies, actively pursuing continuous learning, certifications, and hands-on experimentation to enhance delivery capability. Recommend improvements to tools, frameworks, and delivery approaches.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
