We are looking for a talented Senior AI Engineer to join a brand new delivery squad focused on solving new client problems in 4-week cycles. Each project is designed to produce a working pilot that demonstrates clear value, not a polished long-term system. You’ll work in a 4-person team (AI Engineer, Product Manager, Data Scientist, Principal for AI Engineering), using AI coding tools (e.g. Claude Code) to reduce build time and get solutions into a usable state quickly. The role includes direct interaction with clients, where you’ll help shape solutions and explain technical decisions.

Things you will be doing:

• Experiment with POCs to find solutions for real-world problems using Large Language Models.

• Collaborate on AI-driven projects, working alongside engineers, product managers and Data Scientists while maintaining clear documentation

• Build Agentic solutions with LangGraph/ADK.

• Familiar with different multi agent system patterns

• Build and deploy LLM-based solutions using RAG

• Familiar with different types of databases: Relational, Vector, Graph etc

• Design and optimise APIs using Python and FastAPI to serve AI solutions.

• Familiar with GCP ecosystem and Cloudrun

• Build and optimise data pipelines for vector search and knowledge retrieval using Vector databases and embedding models.

What We’re Looking For:

• Experience building production LLM systems used by clients/customers

• Background in Software Engineering with Python.

• Solid understanding of the Python standard library and modern Python coding, testing, debugging and automation techniques

• Hands-on experience building solutions using LLMs and Agentic architectures with ADK, LlamaIndex, or LangGraph.

• Experience using AI-Assisted coding tools (such as Claude Code) to help accelerate development cycles

• Ability to deliver usable outputs within 4 weeks

• Working with vector databases for embedding and indexing.

• Strong experience with cloud platforms

• Strong experience with API design and frameworks like FastAPI or Flask

• Solid experience with relational databases and SQL

• Interest in expanding your knowledge into GenAI and machine learning

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work well in a collaborative team environment

Nice to have:

• Strong experience with GCP

• Experience with Graph databases

• Experience in bringing data-intensive projects into production

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines
