Forward Deployed AI Engineer

DAMAC Group is hiring a Forward Deployed AI Engineer to sit inside the business — working directly with real estate, hospitality, sales, finance, and operations teams to identify AI use cases that actually matter, build them, prove the ROI, and get them into production.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Walk into business units, diagnose operational problems, and identify where AI creates measurable value
• Build working prototypes — LLM apps, agentic workflows, RAG systems, AI copilots, document intelligence tools
• Validate impact with real users, then take successful solutions into production with engineering and architecture teams
• Define success metrics before building. Measure adoption, time saved, revenue impact, cost reduction
• Kill weak ideas early. Scale strong ones

WHAT YOU BRING

• 4+ years building and shipping AI/ML or LLM-based products
• Strong Python, solid cloud (Azure/AWS/GCP), experience with LLM frameworks and vector databases
• The ability to work directly with senior stakeholders — not just engineers
• A track record of taking things from prototype to production, not just slides
• Comfort operating with ambiguity. You create structure — you don't wait for it

WHY THIS ROLE

• You'll have genuine scope — AI projects across a multi-billion dollar group spanning real estate, hospitality, and beyond
• No red tape between you and impact. Build fast, prove fast, scale fast
• Dubai base. Group-wide remit
