Senior AI Solutions Engineer

Senior AI Solutions Engineer
📍 Belfast (Hybrid)
💼 Permanent

This isn't a typical software engineering role.

You'll be joining a fast-growing AI company where the focus is on solving real-world problems, not maintaining legacy systems. The work is hands-on, client-facing and centred around building bespoke AI solutions from the ground up.

You'll sit at the intersection of engineering and problem-solving - working directly with clients to understand their challenges and designing AI-driven solutions that deliver real impact.


The Role

  • Work directly with clients to understand their environment, challenges and goals
  • Identify opportunities where AI and LLMs can deliver meaningful impact
  • Design and architect bespoke AI solutions tailored to each use case
  • Build, test and iterate solutions using modern AI development workflows
  • Collaborate closely with engineering teams to turn ideas into production systems
  • Rapidly prototype and refine solutions based on real user feedback

What They're Looking For

  • Strong software engineering background (Python ideally)
  • Experience building production-grade applications or platforms
  • Proven experience working with LLMs / Generative AI (APIs, prompt engineering, tooling)
  • Comfortable working with APIs, data and cloud environments
  • Experience in a client-facing or consultative role
  • Ability to take loosely defined problems and turn them into working solutions
  • Someone who enjoys variety, ambiguity and solving new problems

Nice to Have

  • Experience with agent-based frameworks or multi-agent systems
  • RAG, vector databases or knowledge graph implementations
  • Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure or GCP) and containerisation
  • Data pipelines, ETL or document processing
  • Experience working in regulated environments

Why It's Worth a Look

  • High ownership - you're designing solutions, not just delivering tickets
  • Client-facing role with real influence on outcomes
  • Modern AI stack with a strong focus on LLMs
  • Variety of work across different industries and problem spaces
  • Fast-paced environment with a bias for action
  • Flexible hybrid working in Belfast

If you're an engineer who enjoys working closely with clients and wants to build AI solutions that actually get used, this is well worth a conversation.
