What you do

Lead end‑to‑end delivery and own solution architecture for cloud‑based AI on Azure/AWS using Python and SQL—focusing on GenAI applications (e.g., RAG and agentic workflows) that deliver measurable business outcomes.

Translate business goals into technical roadmaps, designs, and success metrics; define scope, milestones, and acceptance criteria; manage timelines and risks to ensure on‑time, high‑quality delivery.

Build, harden, and scale services with solid engineering practices (CI/CD, containerization, Infrastructure as Code with Terraform), robust data pipelines on Databricks Lakehouse architecture (Delta, Unity Catalog), and secure integrations (APIs/events); ensure data quality and privacy by design.

Establish and enforce responsible AI guardrails (safety, privacy, evaluation); lead compliance with Allianz security and governance standards.

Instrument solutions for telemetry and analytics; optimize performance, reliability, and cost; track and report benefits against KPIs and ROI.

Manage stakeholders across Allianz entities: facilitate workshops, communicate trade‑offs, produce executive‑ready presentations/demos, and align cross‑functional teams.

Mentor junior engineers; drive coding standards, documentation quality, PR review rigor, and reusable components/playbooks (templated repos, CI/CD via GitHub Actions) to enable scale.

Drive innovation and vendor/tool evaluation: identify new AI opportunities, run experiments, deliver prototypes and business cases, and support proposals/pre‑sales when needed.

What you bring 

3+ years of hands‑on experience in AI/ML application engineering or technical consulting, with a track record of shipping production solutions.

Advanced Python and strong SQL; demonstrated experience building LLM applications (RAG architectures, Agentic Workflows) and using orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex).

Cloud proficiency with Azure or AWS AI services (e.g., Azure OpenAI, Cognitive Search; AWS Bedrock), IAM/security hygiene; containers and Kubernetes (AKS/EKS), Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform), and CI/CD (GitHub Actions) for deployments.

MLOps/LLMOps practices: experiment tracking, prompt/model versioning, offline/online evaluation, monitoring/logging, and incident response.

Integration and data engineering: design APIs/events, microservices, and data pipelines/ETL; ensure data quality, lineage, and privacy/security by design. Hands-on experience with modern data platforms (e.g., Databricks — Lakehouse, Spark, Unity Catalog, Delta tables; Azure Synapse; Snowflake) and data governance/quality tooling (e.g., Informatica) is an advantage; familiarity with Power BI for analytics reporting is a plus.

Structured problem‑solving and the ability to bridge business and technology: translate requirements into architecture and delivery plans; quantify impact with KPIs and ROI; make clear, data‑backed decisions.

Communication excellence: strong written and verbal skills; executive‑ready storytelling; ability to influence and align cross‑functional teams;

Education and domain: strong academic background; Master’s (or PhD/MBA) from a top university preferred. Relevant cloud/AI/GenAI certifications and domain knowledge in insurance/financial services are advantages.
