Make your mark for patients
We are looking for a Forward Deployed AI Engineer who is curious, pragmatic and innovative to join us in our Technology Strategy & Solutions team, based in our HQ office in Brussels, Belgium.
You will bridge business transformation and technology engineering, working directly alongside strategic initiatives to identify high-value opportunities and rapidly turn them into working solutions. You will immerse yourself in business domains, working closely with stakeholders to understand problems firsthand and translate them into practical technology solutions. You will translate ambiguous business problems into technically actionable concepts, challenge assumptions and pinpoint where technology can make the biggest difference. Acting as the technical lead on complex, novel initiatives, you will design, build and iteratively refine prototypes, prompts, integrations, workflows and application logic, making pragmatic decisions even when information is incomplete. The learnings from your work will feed directly into our broader engineering practices and platform roadmap, helping successful solutions scale into reusable enterprise capabilities.
You will be working in a team that shapes how technology strategy translates into real, working solutions across the organization. You will often operate as an embedded engineer within business initiatives, working directly with end-users and domain experts to rapidly validate ideas and deliver working solutions. You will partner closely with domain teams to ensure new solutions contribute to a coherent, sustainable technology portfolio, and work hand in hand with solution leads to shape the right approach for each initiative. You will collaborate with our responsible technology office to ensure compliance and governance standards are met, and engage with platform teams to help influence future capabilities. You will also connect with enterprise architecture colleagues to make sure your solutions fit within the wider technology landscape and follow sound architectural principles.
