Role Overview

We are looking for a hands-on Data & AI Consultant / Solution Builder to help design, build, and deliver production-grade applications and AI-driven solutions.

This is not a traditional reporting or BI role. The primary focus is on developing real products, applications, APIs, and AI solutions that directly improve commercial decision-making, automation, and operational effectiveness for both clients and internal stakeholders.

You will work at the intersection of software engineering, data engineering, and artificial intelligence, translating business requirements into scalable, practical solutions while continuously growing your technical and consulting capabilities.

Application & Solution Development

• Support the development of end-to-end applications, from data ingestion and backend services to APIs and user-facing products.
• Build and contribute to scalable, production-ready software solutions.
• Take ownership of assigned workstreams from prototype development through production deployment and support.

AI & Automation

• Contribute to the design and implementation of AI-powered solutions, including LLM-based applications, agentic workflows, and automation tools.
• Support the integration of AI capabilities into commercial and operational processes.

Data & Integration

• Develop and maintain data pipelines, semantic models, and supporting data assets.
• Integrate systems through APIs and enterprise platforms.
• Collaborate closely with Commercial Operations and Sales teams to deliver high-impact solutions quickly and effectively.
