AI Engineer | Generative AI & Backend Engineering
Want to build AI products that actually make it into production and get used at scale?
We’re hiring an AI Engineer to join the central AI Engineering team of a large Nordic consumer and retail organisation.
This is a hands-on engineering position where you’ll work directly with stakeholders to identify opportunities for AI, challenge ideas, prototype solutions and ultimately build and ship production-grade AI products.
You’ll join a small AI team in Stockholm while collaborating closely with an international development team. The business has a growing pipeline of AI initiatives, so this hire will have significant ownership over both what gets built and how it gets built.
What are they building?
Current and upcoming projects include:
The team isn't tied to one AI framework or vendor. They actively experiment with new technologies and choose the tools that make the most sense for each problem.
Their current ecosystem includes technologies such as:
Python | Generative AI | LLMs | AI Agents | Google ADK | Qdrant | Vector Databases | Semantic Search | SQL | Pandas | PySpark | APIs
What you'll be doing
You'll work across the full lifecycle of an AI product:
Business problem → technical concept → prototype → engineering → production
Day-to-day, that means:
This is therefore better suited to someone coming from a software/backend engineering angle with strong AI experience than someone looking for a traditional research-focused Data Science position.
What we're looking for
We're particularly interested in people who have:
Just as importantly, you're someone who likes building things.
You'll need to be comfortable experimenting, forming an opinion, challenging assumptions and then getting hands-on with the code to deliver the solution.
Particularly interesting experience
Any exposure to the following would be a bonus:
A Master's degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning or a related technical field is advantageous, as are relevant personal projects or an active GitHub profile.
The package
Why consider it?
The biggest attraction here is impact.
You won't be joining an isolated innovation lab producing AI demos that never see production.
You'll sit within a central AI team that works across a major Nordic organisation, giving you access to a huge variety of potential AI use cases and the opportunity to build products capable of reaching millions of consumers and thousands of internal users.
