My client is embarking on a transformative journey and is seeking their first AI Engineer to lead the exploration, development, and integration of artificial intelligence solutions across the business. This is a rare greenfield opportunity to define how AI can drive automation, efficiency, and enhanced customer experiences in a fast-moving financial services environment.

As the AI Engineer, you will be responsible for identifying high-impact use cases, building proof-of-concepts, and deploying scalable AI models. You'll work closely with stakeholders across technology, operations, data, and compliance to ensure AI initiatives are innovative, responsible, and aligned with strategic goals.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Research and prototype AI/ML models to address business challenges (e.g., process automation, predictive analytics, customer service optimisation)
  • Develop and deploy machine learning models using modern tools (e.g., Python, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn)
  • Collaborate with data engineers to prepare and manage training datasets
  • Integrate AI solutions with existing applications and infrastructure
  • Partner with stakeholders to understand requirements, identify opportunities, and communicate results clearly
  • Stay current with AI trends, tools, and ethical considerations in applied machine learning
  • Lay the groundwork for a scalable AI strategy and help build internal capability
What You'll Bring:
  • Proven experience developing and deploying AI/ML models in a commercial setting
  • Strong programming skills in Python and familiarity with ML libraries and frameworks
  • Solid understanding of statistical modelling, natural language processing (NLP), and/or deep learning
  • Experience working with structured and unstructured data sources
  • Familiarity with MLOps practices and tools (e.g., model versioning, CI/CD for ML, cloud deployment)
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, AI, Data Science, or a related field
  • Experience in financial services is a plus but not required
Why Join?
  • Be the AI pioneer in a tech-forward, ambitious organisation
  • Shape the roadmap and vision for how AI is used across the business
  • Work in a collaborative environment that values innovation and experimentation
  • Hybrid working with flexibility and strong leadership support
  • Competitive salary and opportunities for professional growth
