Staff AI Platform Engineer (fmd)

Workload: 80100%Location: Baden

• Set the standard for how Axpo consumes AI and run the components that enforce it: LLM routing across providers an MCP tool registry identity and permissions rate limits budgets per team tracing and audit. A2A will follow.

• Build the deployment path from repository to running SSO-protected application with secrets handling safe defaults and an administration interface for non-technical users.

• Harden the infrastructure so the code does not have to be trusted: isolated runtimes code analysis vulnerability checks restricted egress and dropped privileges.

• Support the people who build on the platform: fix issues improve documentation turn recurring feedback into product changes.

• Assess open-weight models and European inference providers and make suitable options available.

• Work closely with product security cloud and business teams to deliver useful production-ready capabilities.

What you bring & who you are:

• Genuine interest in AI models and their governance youve built something with models know where they fail and the governance side (who may use which model with which data how usage is traced and controlled) interests rather than annoys you.

• You write reasonable frontend code (or are keen to learn it) communicate clearly and would rather fix the documentation than answer the same question twice.

• Fluent in English; German is useful not required.

• Ideally youre familiar with MCP A2A agent frameworks or evaluation tooling as well as Django and Azure or come from comparable frameworks and clouds.

• Even if you dont meet every point: nobody has years of experience in this field yet so how you approach unfamiliar territory matters more than the tools youve used we look forward to your application.
