Senior AI Engineer — Espoo or Tampere
Build AI systems that actually run in production — and see your work change how real companies operate.
Most AI engineering roles end at the prototype. Here, your code ships to production, your architecture decisions matter, and you see the business impact firsthand — not in a slide deck, but in a client's P&L.
What Your Work Looks Like
Imagine walking into a client engagement where you own the full arc — from understanding the business problem to deploying a production system that delivers measurable results. That's a typical week.
You will:
- Design and ship end-to-end AI systems — RAG pipelines, AI agents, copilots, automation workflows — that run in production, not just in notebooks
- Sit across from decision-makers, understand their real problems, and translate them into architectures that actually scale
- Choose the right tools for the job — modern AI platforms, LLMs, cloud infrastructure — without being locked into any single vendor's stack
- Own the full lifecycle — from data ingestion through deployment, monitoring, and cost optimization
- Build the MLOps and CI/CD foundations that keep your solutions reliable after handover
- This isn't a role where someone else talks to the client and hands you a spec. You're in the room, you shape the solution, and you see it working.
This Role Fits You If
- You have strong Python skills and senior-level engineering experience — you take code from idea to reliable production service, including testing, monitoring, and deployment.
- You've built LLM-based systems that actually went live (RAG, agents, tool use, evaluation pipelines)
- You can translate a business problem into a technical architecture — and explain it to both engineers and executives
- You've worked client-facing or in consulting, and you're comfortable owning the relationship
- You have depth in at least one of: analytics, machine learning, data engineering, or DevOps/MLOps
- You communicate fluently in English. Finnish language skills are highly valued, as many of our clients operate in Finnish.
- You take ownership of complex problems without waiting for permission
- You actively explore new AI tools and technologies — not because someone told you to, but because you can't help it
Even Better If You Bring
Experience with vector databases, LLM evaluation frameworks, Kubernetes, infrastructure automation (Terraform, Ansible), or cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP). Background in telecom or other complex technical domains is a real plus.
What You Get
Not the usual consultancy pitch. Here's what actually changes for you:
- You work on the problems, not around them. No layers of project managers between you and the real work. You're the expert in the room — and you're trusted to act like one.
- You see your impact. Every project ends with something measurable — not a report that sits on a shelf.
- You grow faster. Different industries, different problems, every quarter. Telecom one month, retail the next, energy after that. Your learning curve stays steep.
- You work with seniors, not for them. Small team, no junior pyramid. The people you collaborate with are the people who do the work.
- You shape what we build. At this stage, your technical judgment directly influences our service offerings and how we approach new clients.
Competitive compensation, high autonomy, and flexibility to work from Espoo or Tampere.
This is a senior role — and we mean it. You won't be executing someone else's plan or waiting for architectural decisions to come down from above. You're the one clients look to for answers. You own the technical direction, you make the calls, and you're accountable for the result. If you've been in a "senior" role that didn't feel like one, this is different.
Espoo or Tampere — you choose your base. We work where our clients are and where the thinking is best. Both offices give you a collaborative home base with a team that's easy to reach — but you won't be chained to a desk. Client work, remote days, and travel are all part of the rhythm. Finland's AI ecosystem is growing fast, and you'll be in the middle of it.
