Senior AI Engineer (Remote)
Job Summary
We are looking for a Senior AI Engineer to design build and operate AI systems that solve real business problems across Finom.
This role is for someone who can move comfortably from prototype to production: shaping the solution building the system measuring quality and improving it over time. You will work on high-impact initiatives across onboarding customer support AI accounting fraud and risk workflows document understanding internal automation and agentic systems used by multiple teams.
This is not a pure research role. It is a hands-on engineering role focused on delivering production-grade AI capabilities that create clear value for customers and the business.
- Build and ship AI-powered product and internal solutions using LLMs RAG tool calling workflows and agentic patterns
- Own AI systems end-to-end: problem framing architecture implementation evaluation deployment monitoring and iteration
- Partner closely with solution managers domain teams and engineers to integrate AI into real workflows rather than isolated demos
- Design quality and evaluation frameworks for AI systems including offline evals online signals failure analysis and continuous improvement loops
- Develop scalable and reliable inference pipelines with strong attention to latency cost security and observability
- Work on use cases such as onboarding customer care transaction and document classification knowledge assistants fraud detection and operational automation
- Contribute to AI platform and tooling decisions that improve reuse speed and consistency across teams
- Challenge assumptions propose better approaches and help shape the roadmap rather than only execute tickets
- Experiment boldly learn quickly from failures and turn insights into stronger systems and better practices
In your first 6 to 12 months you will:
- Become fully embedded in the team and business domains you support
- Deliver at least one significant AI capability into production
- Generate visible impact through revenue uplift cost savings productivity gains or risk reduction
- Raise the technical bar for how Finom builds evaluates and operates AI systems
- Help other teams adopt AI more effectively through strong engineering practice and pragmatic guidance
- A strong software engineer with deep Python experience and a track record of shipping production systems
- Comfortable across the full lifecycle: prompting retrieval experimentation evaluation deployment and production support
- Strong at turning ambiguous business problems into robust technical solutions
- Product-minded and focused on real user outcomes not just model outputs
- Autonomous pragmatic and able to keep momentum without heavy supervision
- Clear in communication and comfortable working across functions
- Curious proactive low-ego and biased toward action
- Someone who actively keeps up with the fast-moving AI landscape and can separate hype from what is actually useful
- Proven experience building and deploying AI systems in production
- Strong Python and software engineering fundamentals
- Hands-on experience with LLM applications including some of: RAG tool use agents prompt engineering evals structured outputs guardrails or fine-tuning
- Experience integrating AI systems into backend or product workflows
- Ability to design meaningful evaluation monitoring and continuous improvement loops
- Experience with cloud infrastructure and containerized deployments
- Strong ownership mindset and ability to work through ambiguity
- Actively experiments with new AI models tools and agentic patterns and can evaluate which approaches are worth productionizing
- Strong grasp of the fast-moving AI landscape with the ability to turn relevant advances into practical product and engineering decisions
- Fluent English
- Experience in fintech financial services risk compliance or operations-heavy environments
- Experience with applied ML beyond LLMs such as classification anomaly detection ranking or document intelligence
- Experience with vector databases knowledge systems and retrieval infrastructure
- Experience with model benchmarking experimentation frameworks and cost or latency optimization at scale
- Background in startups or as a founder
- Contributions to open-source or visible side projects in AI
You do not need experience with every item but this role will likely involve technologies such as:
- Languages: Python SQL noSQL
- LLM / AI: OpenAI Anthropic LangGraph Hugging Face Ollama PyTorch OpenClaw
- Patterns: RAG tool calling agent workflows eval pipelines
- Infrastructure: Docker Kubernetes AWS / GCP / Azure
- Data / Platform: Vector databases event-driven systems APIs observability tooling
