Experience designing prompts, grounding strategies and knowledge integrations to produce reliable AI responses. An ability to work with agentic AI and integrate AI solutions into existing workflows and core business systems. Experience assessing and integrating third-party AI platforms and tools, including building proofs of concept and contributing to build-versus-buy decisions. A good understanding of AI security, data privacy, access controls and auditability, together with awareness of relevant regulatory requirements including GDPR and the EU AI Act. Strong stakeholder skills and the ability to translate business requirements into technical solutions and explain complex AI concepts clearly to non-technical users. A pragmatic and risk-aware approach. Given the environment, we need someone focused on trusted, reliable and explainable AI rather than simply experimenting with the latest technology. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, attention to detail and the ability to work effectively across different teams, functions and international offices. Legal or professional services experience would be beneficial but is not essential. Our client would be interested in strong AI engineers from other complex professional environments where security, confidentiality and reliability are important. Hands-on AI engineering experience where you have built and deployed production AI solutions, ideally within the Microsoft ecosystem. This is NOT purely a strategic AI / innovation person we are looking for, nor a traditional data scientist without strong software engineering and solution-delivery experience. This is a great opportunity and salary is dependent upon experience. Apply now for more details
