Reporting to the Director of AI, you will bridge strategy and execution - translating architectural direction into high-quality, scalable implementations in close collaboration with AI Platform Engineering. What You'll Do Design, build, and deploy production-grade generative AI systems that perform reliably at scale. Implement and continuously improve RAG pipelines that effectively leverage proprietary and domain-specific content. Develop agentic and workflow-driven AI patterns with a strong emphasis on determinism, quality, and long-term maintainability. Apply model adaptation techniques - prompting, fine-tuning, distillation - to optimise for quality, latency, and cost efficiency. Drive strong experimentation and evaluation practices, measuring correctness, faithfulness, and robustness across AI outputs. Provide hands-on technical leadership, mentoring engineers and contributing meaningful code-level guidance across the team. Work closely with platform, product, and delivery teams to accelerate the path from AI experimentation to production deployment. Explore and apply advanced retrieval approaches, including Graph-RAG and structured knowledge representation, where they deliver clear value. Required Skills & Experience Strong Python proficiency for production-grade AI development, with hands-on experience across LlamaIndex, LangChain, and LangGraph. Proven track record building Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems; Graph-RAG exposure is a distinct advantage. Practical experience with model adaptation techniques including prompting, fine-tuning, instruction tuning, or knowledge distillation. Solid grounding in evaluation and experimentation methodology for generative AI, with a focus on correctness, faithfulness, and robustness. Demonstrable experience owning the technical design and delivery of complex AI, ML, or data-driven systems in live production environments. A background operating at senior engineer or technical lead level - comfortable balancing rapid experimentation with disciplined production delivery, and communicating with clarity across technical and non-technical stakeholders. This is a compelling opportunity to work at the forefront of applied Generative AI, where your contributions directly shape customer-facing products and drive measurable business impact. You will bring genuine technical ownership and autonomy, supported by a world-class leadership team with a clear and ambitious AI roadmap.
