About the role

Overview:

One of the biggest banks in the European Union is seeking a Senior Software Engineer capable of driving workflow automation and LLM-based tooling directly with business stakeholders. A seasoned software engineer who can sit with front-office operators, understand their workflows, and design/build applications and automations that leverage modern LLM tools. This position could be later expanded to managing a small team.

What will you do?

  • Engage directly with front-office operators to identify automation opportunities and pain points
  • Design and build applications/workflow automations, leveraging LLM tools (e.g. Claude, MCP servers, agentic workflows)
  • Bring strategic thinking to how AI/automation should evolve within QDI's Bronze/Silver/Gold data architecture
  • Set technical direction and best practices for the future AI² team
  • Grow into a team lead role after ~6 months, managing and hiring for AI² initiatives

    What are we looking for?

    • Academic background in Engineering, Economics, Computing, Mathematics, Statistics or related fields
    • 5+ years of software engineering experience
    • Strong communication skills — comfortable working with non-technical business stakeholders
    • Hands-on experience with LLM/AI tooling (agents, RAG, automation frameworks) would be a strong plus
    • Strategic mindset — able to think beyond immediate tickets toward team/capability building
    • Some experience with data-driven applications and workflows
    • Prior team lead or mentoring experience a plus, given the growth path to head of AI²
    • Fluent in English

    What can you expect from us?

    • A permanent job contract for a long term project;
    • Tech equipment + SIM Card + personal smartphone;
    • Health and Life Insurance;
    • Social events and team buildings;
    • The commitment of letting you grow with us, and be rewarded accordingly;
    • A dynamic and young team that will be always there to support you;
    • Training in the latest technologies;
    • Coffee, fruits, snacks and a warm welcoming when you pass by the office.
