Based in Nigeria, not fully remote. Hybrid: you split the week between home and the employer's office in Nigeria.
Read from the listing itself, not guessed. “Remote” does not always mean any country, so confirm with the recruiter.
The Senior AI Engineer is a senior technical role within the Technology function, sitting at the intersection of applied AI and enterprise engineering delivery. The individual will work at the heart of the engineering team responsible for building and maintaining enterprise technology platforms, bringing deep AI expertise to bear on how those platforms are
designed, built, and continuously improved. The role carries broad technical
accountability across both near-term delivery execution and the longer-term enterprise AI capability agenda.
This is a role for a technically credible individual who can operate across engineering delivery, enterprise architecture, and applied AI simultaneously — someone equally comfortable shaping AI strategy at the executive level and working alongside engineering teams to ensure solutions are built and shipped with rigour and consistency.
1. Engineering Delivery & Technical Excellence
– Drive end-to-end delivery across the engineering portfolio, owning planning, prioritisation, and execution from inception to production.
– Set and uphold engineering standards across the team, ensuring consistency, quality, and technical rigour across all workstreams.
– Work closely with the Head of Technology to align engineering delivery with enterprise strategy and business priorities, translating strategic direction into executable technical roadmaps.
– Foster a culture of technical excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement within the engineering function.
– Support the growth and development of engineers across the team through hands-on technical guidance, code reviews, and knowledge sharing.
2. Enterprise AI Strategy & Execution – Define, own, and execute the organisation’s enterprise AI strategy across functions, platforms, and business units.
– Identify and prioritise AI opportunities that drive measurable improvement in operational efficiency, customer experience, and business performance.
– Lead the design and deployment of GenAI, LLM, and applied AI solutions at enterprise scale, ensuring they are production-grade, reliable, and governed.
– Establish AI engineering standards, integration patterns, and governance frameworks that enable consistent and responsible AI adoption across the organisation.
– Engage executive and business stakeholders to translate AI capabilities into practical, high
-impact solutions, communicating technical concepts clearly at every level.
– Maintain a forward-looking view of the AI landscape, evaluating emerging tools, models, and frameworks for enterprise applicability.
3. AI-Enabled Engineering Delivery
– Champion and embed AI-assisted engineering tools and practices across the team, including AI-powered code generation, testing automation, and developer productivity tooling.
– Design and implement AI features directly within enterprise platforms and customer-facing digital products, working across the full engineering stack.
– Implement and oversee MLOps pipelines, CI/CD automation, and AI deployment infrastructure to support reliable, scalable solution delivery.
– Ensure model monitoring, performance optimisation, and continuous improvement processes are embedded as standard engineering practice.
4. AI Platform & Infrastructure
– Oversee the design and evolution of scalable AI infrastructure, including cloud native platforms, vector databases, LLM orchestration frameworks, and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) pipelines.
– Drive standardisation of AI engineering frameworks, reusable service patterns, and deployment practices across the team.
– Contribute to the broader enterprise data and analytics ecosystem, ensuring AI use cases are well-supported by underlying data infrastructure.
5. Governance, Risk & Responsible AI
– Ensure all AI and technology solutions comply with enterprise cybersecurity, data privacy, regulatory, and governance standards.
– Implement responsible AI practices across the engineering function, including explainability, fairness, bias monitoring, and model accountability.
– Collaborate with Risk & Compliance to design and embed enterprise controls around AI adoption and deployment.x
– Maintain oversight of the AI governance framework, ensuring it evolves in line with regulatory developments and the organisation’s risk appetite.
Qualifications and Experience
