    Job Technologies

    Your role in the team

    • We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior AI Engineer to join our team.
    • The ideal candidate combines strong software engineering fundamentals with hands-on experience building and deploying AI systems in real production environments - whether that background comes from machine learning, data science, or backend/platform engineering that grew into AI.
    • This role is for builders.
    • You will design and ship end-to-end AI solutions - from data and retrieval pipelines through model and agent orchestration to the interfaces real users touch.
    • We value people who take ownership of a problem, communicate clearly across technical and business audiences, and thrive in a collaborative, international team.
    • Solution Development: Design, develop, and deploy end-to-end AI solutions - RAG and retrieval pipelines, LLM-based applications, agentic workflows, and classical ML where it's the better tool - to improve Siemens processes and products.
    • Engineering Excellence: Bring production-grade practices to AI: clean code, testing, CI/CD, containerization, observability, and MLOps/LLMOps for evaluation, monitoring, and safe iteration.
    • Project Ownership: Lead initiatives from concept to deployment, translating business requirements into scalable technical solutions and ensuring timely delivery aligned with business objectives.
    • Rapid Delivery: Work in a lean, MVP-driven way - prototype fast, validate with real users, then harden what proves valuable.
    • Collaboration: Work closely with an international team of diverse backgrounds - engineers, product managers, domain experts, and business stakeholders - to integrate AI solutions into existing systems and platforms.
    • Communication: Clearly articulate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
    • Proactively raise concerns, suggest alternatives, and engage in constructive debate when appropriate.
    • Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing: Mentor colleagues, share reusable patterns and reference architectures, and contribute to the overall skill development of the team.

    Our expectations of you

    Education

    • Degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Machine Learning, Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Engineering, or a related field - or equivalent practical experience.

    Qualifications

    • A strong track record of shipped systems counts as much as a formal qualification.
    • Nachweisliche Fähigkeit, Lösungen von der Erkundung bis zur Produktion zu bringen – nicht nur Prototypen und Notebooks.
    • Demonstrated ability to manage and deliver complex projects with multiple stakeholders.
    • Strong programming skills in Python; additional strength in TypeScript/Node.js, C#, Java, or Go is a plus, especially for building services and user-facing applications.
    • Familiarity with ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn) and classical ML/NLP fundamentals.
    • Exposure to MLOps/LLMOps practices: versioning, deployment pipelines, tracing, evaluation, and monitoring of AI systems in production.
    • Version control and collaborative engineering practices (GitHub/GitLab).
    • Nice to have: Big Data and analytics platforms (Snowflake, Spark, Databricks), data visualization, enterprise platforms (Microsoft 365 / SharePoint, SAP, Salesforce), or a research background with publications.
    • Starke verbale und schriftliche Kommunikationsfähigkeiten:
    • Ability to present ideas concisely and directly in international business contexts.
    • Comfort proactively raising concerns, suggesting alternatives, and engaging in constructive debate.
    • Neugier auf die Geschäftsdomäne, nicht nur auf die Technologie – die besten KI-Lösungen entstehen von Ingenieuren, die das Problem tiefgreifend verstehen.
    • Unabhängiger Arbeitsstil mit proaktivem Ansatz bei der Problemlösung.
    • High level of ownership and accountability for project outcomes.
    • Excellent teamwork and collaboration abilities.
    • Effective project management and organizational skills.
    • Fluent English required. German or Portuguese is beneficial but not mandatory.

    Experience

    • 5+ years in software engineering, machine learning engineering, or data science roles, including meaningful hands-on experience with modern AI/LLM technologies.
    • Practical experience with LLM-based systems: prompt design, RAG architectures, vector search and embeddings, structured output, and evaluation.
    • Erfahrung mit mindestens einem agentic oder LLM-Framework (z. B. LangChain/LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Semantic Kernel, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK, Microsoft Agent Framework) und ein Verständnis dafür, was erforderlich ist, um Agenten zuverlässig zu machen, anstatt nur beeindruckend.
    • Experience with cloud-native development (Azure preferred; AWS or GCP equally welcome), including containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) and CI/CD.
    • Experience designing and working with APIs, data stores, and integration layers (SQL and NoSQL; e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Azure AI Search, or comparable).
    • Experience bridging communication between global teams and navigating cultural differences in professional settings.
