We are currently looking for a Senior AI Engineer to join us remotely in Spain. As our first hire in this geography, you could play a pivotal role in, potentially, setting up a physical hub in Spain. We currently serve our customers from our delivery hub in Budapest (Hungary) and through our remote consultants in the UK, but we’re considering expanding the team internationally with a 2nd delivery hub in EMEA. You will work with our EMEA and US customers to help them solve their data architecture, ML, Generative AI, MLOps and cloud migration puzzles.
What (exactly) will you do?
As a Senior AI Engineer, your responsibilities will span across the following dimensions:
Project Planning & Delivery
In the planning phase of a project, you’re expected to lead or participate in scoping the engagement, designing high-level architecture, defining subtasks, and project delivery schedules. After the planning phase is over, you’ll deliver the project on your own or within a mixed DS/DE team setup where you’ll oftentimes take the role of a technical lead. Furthermore, during the project delivery, you will be client-facing, acting as DATAPAO’s interface or SPOC to our customers.
During non-delivery cycles, you will provide ML/DS consultancy to technical teams for our EMEA customers. Our customers are either direct DATAPAO customers or coming via our Databricks partnership.
Data Science & AI consultancy
As a consultant, you will work closely with Databricks and cloud providers to understand the needs and requirements of clients. Based on your understanding, you will recommend solutions that leverage Databricks or native cloud features. Additionally, you will be responsible for conducting workshops to enable clients on these platforms.
What does it take to fit the bill?
Technical Expertise
You (ideally) have 5+ years of experience as a Data Scientist, with a focus on cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP);
You have a proven track record working with Databricks (PySpark, SQL, Delta Lake, Unity Catalog);
You have a good understanding of Large Language Models (LLMs), and you are familiar with their frameworks/libraries
You have strong Python knowledge of the most common DS libraries
Proficiency with MLOps
You have good knowledge of data visualization tools/libraries
[BONUS] You are proficient in any deep learning framework
[BONUS] Experience with distributed computing, preferably Spark
Consulting & Client-Facing Skills
Ideally, you bring a proven history in consulting, from scoping and gathering requirements to designing solutions and communicating effectively with stakeholders. If you bring a product company background, that’s also fine, as long as you can demonstrate a strong consulting mindset and a desire to be customer-facing.
You’ve successfully delivered projects like end-to-end, fully automated ML solutions, or production-ready Generative AI applications in Databricks
You excel at explaining technical concepts to non-technical audiences and at driving decision-making.
What do we offer?
You’ll have the rare opportunity to join DATAPAO at a time when you can still meaningfully impact our growth trajectory and organizational success. Furthermore, as our first-ever Spain hire, you could meaningfully contribute to expanding our local presence and, eventually, establishing a physical hub in this geography.
Surely, we know everyone needs a little something to do their best work. Here is a list of some other extras we offer:
The chance to work remotely - as we don’t have a physical office in Spain yet, we offer a fully remote setup for the time being. However, given our strong community emphasis, we’d expect you to spend one month in our Budapest hub during onboarding and visit the office for one week every quarter;
World-class educational benefits - there’s no shortage of learning opportunities at DATAPAO, meaning that you’ll get access to Databricks’ public and internal courses to learn all the tricks of Distributed Data Processing, MLOps, Apache Spark, Databricks, and Cloud Migration from the best. Additionally, we’ll pay for various data & cloud certifications, you’ll get dedicated time for learning during work hours, and access to our internal library;
Flexible PTO days - we’re flexible with how many days you take off if that does not conflict with customer success and the work getting done;
Fully paid Medical Leave for up to 15 days per year - because when you’re unwell, your only priority should be recovery;
Comprehensive private health insurance plan via Allianz - offered via our EOR (Employer of Record) provider, Remote.com. Remote will be your official employer in Spain for the foreseeable future until we establish our own legal entity in Spain;
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) via Allianz & Remote - life always happens! And we’d like to be there for you when it counts the most. Through EAP, we offer our employees access to psychology, financial, and legal consulting services via phone or in person;
Top-notch working equipment - working comfortably means working well. You will get a MacBook Pro, a phone, and a sign-up bonus of 500 EUR gross (to be paid with your first payroll) to set up your home office or whatever else is needed to give your best;
* The chance to make an impact in a high-transparency culture - open feedback and no politics are things we value a lot at DATAPAO. Additionally, you’ll get the chance to work in the field of data & AI and shape the future of a rapidly growing tech company.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Given that we are still sorting our way in Spain, this list will likely get an update in the following months, and we’re also committed to growing it with us over time.
The gross salary for this position ranges from 75.000 to 85.000 EUR/year, depending on your assessed seniority level during the selection process.
Please note that currently we are unable to support transfer or offer full sponsorship for Skilled Worker visas as we’re just setting foot into Spain.
