About the Job

Requirements

  • Have a strong software-engineering foundation, such as programming in Python and experience with application programming interfaces, integrations, version control, and testing.
  • Have demonstrated the ability to build working software through work, internships, research, open-source contributions, or personal projects.
  • Have experience with, or demonstrable interest in, large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, evaluation, and agentic workflows, and understand when conventional software logic is more suitable.
  • Be able to turn an ambiguous problem into a working solution by asking questions, making assumptions explicit, reducing complexity to an initial deliverable, and improving the solution using real data and user feedback.
  • Be comfortable working directly with clients and end users, listening, asking follow-up questions, explaining technical choices clearly, and constructively communicating when a proposed solution is infeasible or misses the actual problem.
  • Take responsibility for quality and outcomes beyond a successful demonstration, including testing, deployment, usage, and stabilization, with attention to security, privacy, reliability, and responsible AI.
  • Have an academic or higher-professional level in a technical direction, or equivalent level gained through experience.
  • Communicate strongly in Dutch and English.

Responsibilities

  • Investigate customer processes, bottlenecks, data, and existing systems with users; translate ambiguous customer questions into clear requirements, success criteria, and an initial deliverable.
  • Build and quickly test a working solution with real users and realistic data, using generative AI solutions such as large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, agents, and conventional software components.
  • Integrate solutions into customer environments by building application programming interfaces, data flows, authentication, and connections to existing applications and systems; assess whether AI or conventional software logic is appropriate.
  • Work with team members to address security, privacy, and compliance challenges, discussing safe and responsible paths to put initial versions into production with security officers and architects.
  • Bring solutions reliably into production through automated tests, evaluations, security practices, continuous integration and continuous delivery, monitoring, and logging; stay involved in launch and stabilization and help resolve technical blockers in customer environments.
  • Gather feedback and measure quality and usage, support technical adoption, and turn recurring patterns into reusable components, evaluation frameworks, and implementation approaches.
  • Provide technical leadership for the AI solution while working closely with data engineers, architects, and consultants; focus on AI logic, integration, and developer experience.
  • Build AI applications using suitable technologies such as Python, FastAPI, Pydantic, SQL, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Microsoft Agent Framework, Model Context Protocol, embeddings, and vector stores such as Azure AI Search or pgvector.
  • Integrate AI with customer data and existing systems using Microsoft Azure services, including Microsoft Foundry, Azure OpenAI, and Azure Container Apps, and tools such as Docker, GitHub Actions, and Azure DevOps.
  • Improve solution quality and usage using automated tests, AI evaluations, and monitoring tools such as Azure AI Evaluation, Application Insights, and OpenTelemetry; assess reliability, user feedback, performance, security, and cost.
  • Work at customer sites, the Amsterdam office, or from home depending on the project phase.
