About the Role
As an AI Engineer, you’ll design, build, and deploy AI features that solve complex problems and deliver real value to our customers. Working across a variety of client projects, you’ll apply your expertise in areas such as conversational AI, image and data classification, and scalable model deployment, bringing cutting-edge AI to production environments at scale.
You’ll collaborate closely with our customer engagement and engineering teams to design and build robust, safe, and intuitive AI systems. This is a hands-on role where you’ll be writing code, building pipelines, and iterating quickly based on feedback from real users and stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the development of AI solutions across multiple client engagements.
- Collaborate with Abstract Customer Engagement and clients to understand business challenges and translate them into AI-driven solutions.
- Work with client data teams to ingest, clean, and prepare data for modeling.
- Build and integrate AI solutions using Azure AI Foundry, OneReach.ai, LangChain or similar orchestration frameworks for conversational AI.
- Design and optimise Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, including embedding generation, vector database configuration, API, MCP and retrieval tuning to improve accuracy, latency, and relevance in conversational AI.
- Optimise prompts for closed source large language models (LLMs) or post-train open-source LLMs to build new or improve existing agentic workflows.
- Understand and guide on evaluation frameworks to measure model safety, accuracy, and performance, including recall, precision, F1-score, and other relevant metrics for both conversational AI and classification models.
- Collaborate with our DevOps team to produce MLOps pipelines to speed up experimentation, deployment, and monitoring.
- Ship AI models into live production environments and iterate rapidly based on usage, feedback, and metric-driven insights.
- Write clean, testable, and scalable code in .NET or Python and integrate with backend services.
- Stay up-to-date with the latest AI research and tools, applying them pragmatically to solve real problems.
- Design and refine prompts, workflows, and evaluation frameworks for autonomous AI financial analysts.
