AI Forward Deployed Engineer

Are you excited about transforming cutting-edge AI into real, business-critical solutions that operate safely at global scale? Join us as an AI Solutions Engineer and play a pivotal role in bringing advanced AI capabilities into production across one of the world's largest and most regulated financial-services organizations.

In this role, you won't just build AI systems-you'll shape how they work in the real world: robust, compliant, secure, observable, and ready for enterprise-wide adoption. You'll be the technical lead partnering directly with Operating Entities (OEs), translating innovative models into practical, high-impact automation and intelligent solutions that deliver measurable value.

By combining hands-on engineering with a strong sense of responsibility, you'll ensure that every AI deployment is not only innovative, but safe, trusted, and operationally excellent. If you thrive at the intersection of deep technical work, real-world impact, and responsible AI, this is the opportunity to make your mark. What You Do

• Design, engineer, and deploy (Agentic) AI-driven automation and analytics solutions across multiple business units.
