Our client is a global consulting firm building and deploying production AI systems for major banking clients. This role sits at the intersection of engineering and delivery — designing scalable agentic solutions, leading technical implementation, and owning the path from prototype to production. You'll work across the full stack: LLM architecture, RAG pipelines, MLOps, CI/CD, and regulatory compliance, collaborating with data scientists, architects, and senior client stakeholders to ship AI that works at enterprise scale.


Core requirements

  • Proven software or data engineering background, with a track record of applied AI delivery using Python and SQL
  • Experience in banking or broader financial services
  • Solid grasp of LLM fundamentals — prompt engineering, fine-tuning, embedding models, and RAG patterns
  • Hands-on experience with at least one vector database (e.g. Pinecone) and at least one agent framework (e.g. LangChain, LangGraph, or Agent Development Kit)
  • Ability to design and build evaluation frameworks for agentic systems
  • Comfortable building API-enabled backend services, e.g. FastAPI
  • MLOps or LLMOps knowledge, including CI/CD pipeline setup for ML or agent development
  • Experience with at least one hyperscaler stack — AWS, Azure, GCP, or Databricks; cloud certifications preferred
  • Familiarity with Agile or SaFe delivery methodologies


The role also requires

  • Senior stakeholder management — translating technical concepts clearly for non-technical audiences
  • Experience scoping and estimating agentic AI builds, including commercial thinking around ROI
  • Confidence contributing to bids, RFPs, and proposal development
  • Experience managing and developing junior team members


Client-facing and delivery-led. You'll manage teams, shape proposals, and own outcomes.
