Job description

About the Role:
Our client, a fast-growing SaaS provider, are seeking an Applied AI Engineer to bridge the gap between experimental AI research and customer-facing product delivery. This is a hands-on engineering role with a strong focus on building scalable, production-ready systems that integrate directly into software platforms used by a global customer base.
You will design, prototype, and refine AI models across use cases such as recommendation engines, predictive analytics, and automation features. Working closely with product managers and software developers, you will ensure solutions are aligned with both technical feasibility and market needs. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of research, engineering, and product design.
Responsibilities:
Design, implement, and optimise AI models for production systems.
Work closely with crossfunctional teams to deliver scalable AI-driven applications.
Contribute to AI research initiatives and adopt new techniques into live projects.
Ensure compliance with ethical AI standards and regulatory requirements.
Requirements:
Strong background in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
Experience with Python and at least one major ML framework.
Proven record of deploying AI models into production environments.
Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to nontechnical stakeholders.
Thank you for your interest in this opportunity. If your application is successful, we will contact you to discuss the position in more detail within 48 hours of receiving your CV. Please assume your application has been unsuccessful if you do not hear back from us within 48 hours.
