Technical AI consultant

About

I am supporting a client which is searching for a new Technical AI consultant to join their emerging tech division.

The ideal candidate should bring a combination of a background in Machine learning and enterprise software engineering experience.

You will sit at the intersection of data science, software engineering, and consulting, working directly with clients to design, build, and deliver AI-powered solutions in complex enterprise environments.

The Role

• Work directly with clients to understand business problems and translate them into AI and data-driven solutions
• Lead solution design and architecture for AI/ML systems in enterprise settings
• Deliver end-to-end AI solutions, from proof of concept through to production deployment
• Bridge the gap between data science models and scalable software engineering implementations
• Design and build production-ready ML systems, APIs, and AI-enabled applications
• Support delivery across the full lifecycle: discovery, design, build, test, deploy, and scale
• Collaborate with engineering, data science, and platform teams to ensure robust implementation
• Advise clients on AI strategy, model selection, deployment patterns, and operationalisation (MLOps)

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong academic or professional background in Machine Learning, Data Science, or a related field
• Hands-on experience developing and deploying ML models in real-world production environments
• Strong enterprise software engineering experience (e.g. Python, Java, or .NET)
• Experience building scalable backend systems, APIs, and distributed services
• Solid understanding of:
  • Machine learning algorithms and model lifecycle
  • Data pipelines and feature engineering
  • Model deployment and monitoring
  • Cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
• Experience working in client-facing, consulting, or delivery-focused roles
• Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business value
