About the Company
Our client, one of Australia’s leading institutional investment managers, is looking out for a AI Solutions Developer in Brisbane. The organisation partners with major superannuation funds, pension funds, insurers and government clients across Australia and globally. With expertise across infrastructure, real estate, private equity, private debt and liquid markets, it manages a diverse multi-billion-dollar investment portfolio. The business is recognised for its disciplined investment approach, long-term outlook and commitment to delivering sustainable value for clients. Headquartered in Australia, it offers a collaborative, high-performing environment with a strong focus on innovation, governance and professional growth.
About the Role
Our client is looking for an experienced AI Solutions Developer to join a growing technology team delivering advanced AI capabilities within a large, structured enterprise environment.
This role is suited to someone who combines strong engineering capability with a commercial, delivery-focused mindset, someone who understands how to build practical, scalable solutions that operate within real-world constraints, not just experimental or startup-style environments.
This is not a training role. We need someone who has been here before, who has built production-grade AI solutions in a regulated enterprise environment, knows the problems that come up, and knows how to work around them. If you're 3–6 months into delivering something similar right now, this is the role for you.
Key responsibilities include:
- Evaluating business processes and workflows to identify where AI can deliver tangible value
- Designing and delivering production-grade AI solutions including RAG, agentic patterns, vector indexing, and agent-to-agent workflows
- Building and operating solutions using MLOps best practices — model lifecycle management, CI/CD, monitoring, drift detection
- Working with Copilot Studio and Azure AI Foundry alongside pro-code delivery
- Running proof of concepts in sandbox environments to test and compare approaches
- Contributing to solution architecture thinking in a flat team structure — there is an architecture team, but you'll need to be able to think "how do I build this" independently
- Presenting findings, options analysis, and recommendations to senior stakeholders across both technical and non-technical audiences
- Ensuring solutions are built with responsible AI principles — guardrails, explainability, human-in-the-loop controls, and regulatory compliance
- Collaborating closely with a team of BAs and developers — sometimes the whole BA team is across a single piece of work alongside you
About You
Tech stack (essential):
- Hands-on C# and/or Python in an enterprise environment
- Azure — AI Foundry, Copilot Studio, and broader Azure AI services
- RAG, vector indexes, and LLM-based system design
- Agentic AI — including agent-to-agent workflows
- MLOps — CI/CD for AI, model monitoring, deployment automation
- Responsible AI design — risk controls, safety mechanisms, explainability
Experience:
- 5+ years in application development, with 3+ years in AI/ML or a closely related specialisation
- Proven delivery of AI solutions in enterprise or regulated environments — not just startup or greenfield
- Full lifecycle experience: discovery, architecture, build, test, deploy, handover
- Demonstrated ability to run proof of concepts and take them through to production
- Exposure to Microsoft low-code tooling (Copilot Studio, Power Platform) — beneficial, not mandatory
The person:
- Strong team player — this is a collaborative squad, not a lone wolf environment
- Comfortable engaging directly with business stakeholders, not just working from requirements handed down by BAs
- Can think architecturally in a flat structure without always having someone to defer to
- Brings commercial discipline — understands governance, regulated environments, and the difference between an interesting proof of concept and a supportable production solution
- Has hit these problems before and knows how to navigate them
