Senior AI Engineer
MAKE YOUR STORY REAL
At Siili, we don't just talk about AI – we make it real. We build AI-powered solutions that deliver measurable impact, combining data, design, and engineering. From recommendation engines to generative AI, our work goes beyond experiments and proof-of-concepts. We deliver solutions that scale and create value for our clients.
As a Senior AI Engineer, you will play a leading role in designing, building, and deploying machine learning and AI solutions that help organizations transform how they use data. You'll work as part of our Data & AI community, alongside data scientists, data engineers, and data architects – bringing deep expertise in true AI engineering: making models work in production, ensuring reliability, scalability, and performance. In addition to hands-on technical work, you will mentor peers, shape technical direction, and act as a trusted advisor to clients.
What you'll do
Lead the design and implementation of end-to-end AI solutions, from prototyping to production deployment.
Architect and build LLM-powered applications and agentic systems integrated into real business processes and systems.
Collaborate with data scientists and engineers to turn models into robust, scalable products.
Apply and champion MLOps practices to ensure reproducibility, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
Work with modern cloud environments (Azure, AWS, GCP) and open-source AI frameworks.
Stay ahead of the fast-evolving AI landscape and bring that insight into client projects and internal capability building.
What we're looking for
We are looking for a seasoned Senior AI Engineer who has built and led real AI solutions – beyond using APIs or experimenting with models. We hope you recognize yourself in most of these:
5+ years of experience in AI/ML engineering or data science, with a deep understanding of key ML concepts such as classification, regression, NLP, and generative AI.
Experience of building and delivering production-grade LLM and agentic applications, incl. evaluation, monitoring, and scaling.
Deep knowledge of core LLM concepts e.g. tokenization, RAG, CoT, reasoning models, memory, fine-tuning, tool use, and self-correction.
Strong hands-on experience with MLOps, CI/CD, containers, and cloud environments.
Ability to design and maintain data pipelines, ensuring model reliability and performance in production.
Experience guiding technical teams and taking ownership of architectural decisions.
Curiosity and drive to stay ahead of developments in AI and apply them responsibly.
Excellent communication and consulting skills — able to guide stakeholders, create understanding, and inspire confidence around AI capabilities.
Fluent in Finnish and English.
Relevant technologies:
LLMs and LLM middleware: GPT, Claude, open-source models, LiteLLM, vLLM
Agent technologies: MCP, agent/workflow frameworks (LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Haystack, Magentic, Strands)
Platforms: Azure AI Foundry, Amazon Bedrock, Snowflake and Databricks
Cloud: Azure, AWS, GCP
Python
Vector databases: Pinecone, pgvector
AI powered development tools: ChatGPT, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex
What we offer
A technically strong and collaborative community with experienced data professionals.
Opportunities to lead and influence architecture, data platforms, or AI enablement.
Real-world impact with scalable, meaningful Data & AI solutions tied to business strategy.
Continuous learning through mentoring, training, and partnerships with Microsoft, Databricks, Nvidia and more.
Practical benefits: flexible hybrid work, well-being support, hobby clubs, daycare support for sick children, and a share option program.
Company with a mission and a clear vision and purpose.
Mental well-being at the core, with services like Focus Tiger, in-house coaching, and Brain-Friendly Leadership training.
A culture shaped by Joy, Ambition, Responsibility and a Humane touch.
