    What will you do? Make an impact!

    As an AI Solutions Engineer, you will accelerate business value delivery by rapidly turning ideas into AI-enabled applications, workflow automation solutions, and modern digital capabilities. Working closely with business leaders, operational teams, IT, and Global Digital Innovation teams, you will design, prototype, and deploy practical AI-powered solutions that improve operational efficiency, simplify workflows, and modernize legacy processes.

    This role is highly hands-on and execution-focused. You will rapidly translate ambiguous business problems into scoped experiments, MVPs, and scalable production-ready solutions. You will work across the full solution lifecycle: from idea and prototyping through deployment, operationalization, monitoring, and continuous improvement.

    Key Responsibilities

    Rapid Prototyping & MVP Delivery
    • Develop and deliver rapid AI prototypes and demo-ready MVPs that validate business value quickly and support fast iteration with business stakeholders.
    • Translate ambiguous business challenges into working solutions, and scalable applications.

    AI Application Development
    • Build, deploy, and maintain AI-enabled applications, workflow automation solutions, and user-facing tools that improve operational efficiency and business processes.
    • Develop end-to-end solutions leveraging modern AI technologies including large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), APIs, orchestration frameworks, and AI-assisted automation.

    Workflow Automation & Legacy Modernization
    • Replace or simplify legacy internal applications with fit-for-purpose solutions while implementing AI-assisted workflow automation and modern user experiences.
    • Design solutions that reduce manual effort, simplify complex workflows, and improve usability for business users.

    Enterprise Integration & Operationalization
    • Integrate AI solutions with enterprise applications, operational platforms, and data environments while ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, maintainable, and production-ready.
    • Establish observability, monitoring, governance, and operational controls to support long-term reliability and supportability.

    Cross-Functional Collaboration
    • Partner with business teams, BRMs, IT, architecture, security, and Global Digital Innovation teams to align technical solutions with operational needs and governance standards.
    • Serve as a technical translator between business stakeholders and technical teams to accelerate solution adoption and execution.

    AI Governance & Responsible AI
    • Support AI governance initiatives including approved tools and models, vendor evaluation, data privacy, security controls, and value realization tracking.
    • Ensure AI deployments align with company security, compliance, and operational standards.

    Production Readiness & Continuous Improvement
    • Ensure solutions meet operational requirements for accuracy, resiliency, maintainability, usability, and cost efficiency.
    • Continuously iterate and improve deployed solutions based on business feedback and operational performance.

    Training & Capability Building
    • Upskill IT teams and business stakeholders through hands-on collaboration, reusable templates, practical examples, and build-together approaches.
    • Help establish reusable patterns and best practices that enable broader AI adoption across the organization.

    Do you have what it takes?

    • Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent hands-on experience preferred.
    • Experience:
      • 3+ years of hands-on software development experience across backend, frontend, and data layers.
      • 1+ years of experience delivering applied AI solutions such as Generative AI, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), AI-assisted automation, intelligent search, or workflow orchestration solutions.
      • Experience building and integrating solutions using APIs, AI frameworks, orchestration platforms, and enterprise data sources.
      • Experience modernizing or replacing legacy/internal applications with scalable, maintainable solutions.
      • Experience with cloud platforms, low-code/no-code automation tools, orchestration frameworks, observability tooling, or enterprise integrations is a plus.
