Summary Generated by Built In

Our client is a fast-growing European fintech company in the business spend management space. We're looking for a Senior Applied AI Engineer to design, build and ship customer-facing AI features end-to-end.

Responsibilities
  • Design, build and ship customer-facing AI features end-to-end, including RAG system design (chunking, embedding selection, retrieval, re-ranking) and agentic workflows.
  • Ship external customer-facing LLM-based features into production, with safe production deployment practices.
  • Do hands-on evaluation-pipeline and observability work: drift detection, quality monitoring.
  • Reason independently about retrieval architecture using strong data fluency.
  • Apply real engineering rigor to the Context Development Lifecycle (CDLC): generate, evaluate, distribute and observe the context that powers AI agents.
  • Multiply the output and quality of the squad you join, and share patterns/practice beyond your immediate team so adoption compounds across the organisation.
  • Embed directly into a client squad as a hands-on Individual Contributor.

Requirements:

  • Python (Python-first).
  • RAG system design: chunking, embedding selection, retrieval, re-ranking.
  • Agentic workflows; safe production deployment.
  • Proven experience shipping external customer-facing LLM-based features to production (not prototypes).
  • Hands-on evaluation-pipeline and observability work: drift detection, quality monitoring.
  • Data fluency to reason about retrieval architecture independently.
  • Agent & harness engineering fluency — designing guardrails, context and verification layers for safe, reliable AI-assisted delivery; concrete evidence of having built/operated this kind of tooling, not just used it.
  • Comfortable with the client's current daily tools: Claude Code and GitHub Copilot.
Nice-to-Have:
  • Specific tooling such as AWS Bedrock, OpenAI APIs, or Langfuse (or comparable eval platforms). 

We offer*:

  • Flexible working format - remote, office-based or flexible
  • A competitive salary and good compensation package
  • Personalized career growth
  • Professional development tools (mentorship program, tech talks and trainings, centers of excellence, and more)
  • Active tech communities with regular knowledge sharing
  • Education reimbursement
  • Memorable anniversary presents
  • Corporate events and team buildings
  • Other location-specific benefits
