Our client, a leading global investment firm, is looking for an Applied AI Enablement Architect in London to help embed practical AI capabilities across its fundamental investment teams. You will join a multidisciplinary group of data scientists, analysts and engineers, working directly with portfolio managers, researchers and senior business stakeholders. This is a highly front-office-facing role where you will identify valuable use cases, understand research workflows and translate complex or ambiguous problems into AI solutions that people genuinely adopt.
Responsibilities
- Partner directly with investment teams to understand research workflows, uncover problems and identify high-value opportunities for AI.
- Act as the bridge between business users and technical teams, translating loosely defined requirements into practical solution and platform designs.
- Develop lightweight proofs of concept to test feasibility and demonstrate value before larger build decisions are made.
- Drive adoption through workshops, prompt and tool education, best-practice sharing and hands-on support for users.
- Assess the effectiveness of AI solutions, communicate limitations clearly and feed user insights back into the wider technology roadmap.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Requirements
- 3+ years' experience in a client-facing product, solutions engineering, consulting or forward-deployed role, with the maturity to work closely with senior stakeholders.
- Strong understanding of modern AI and LLM tooling, including prompting, model APIs, retrieval-augmented generation, agents and evaluation approaches.
- Working knowledge of Python, SQL, data platforms and solution architecture, with enough technical depth to assess feasibility and guide delivery.
- A demonstrable ability to gather requirements from non-technical users and turn them into solutions that deliver measurable value and adoption.
- A calm, consultative and commercially minded approach, with strong communication skills, sound judgement and comfort operating in ambiguous environments.
- This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys sitting at the intersection of AI, product, data and investment research. You do not need to be a pure software engineer or already work within a hedge fund. The strongest candidates will be technically credible, naturally curious and able to earn the trust of demanding business users without overselling a solution.
