Role description
AI Engineer Hybrid Working - London - 2 days a week on site. Financial Services Lorien's leading banking client is looking for an additional AI Engineer join the existing team on a expanding project. This role is based in London. This role will be Via Umbrella. Working in a Hybrid Model of 2 days a week on site. Role Overview: As an AI Engineer, you will be responsible for designing and developing intelligent agents capable of autonomous decision-making in distributed environments. You will leverage your expertise in Python and Spark to process large-scale data and use modelling techniques to enable complex agentic behaviours. Experience working with MCP servers or similar distributed computing platforms is key. Key Responsibilities: • Design and develop agentic AI systems that operate autonomously across diverse data sources and workflows. • Implement scalable data processing pipelines using Apache Spark and Python. • Build, train, and fine-tune advanced AI/ML models for agent reasoning, planning, and execution. • Integrate solutions with MCP (Massively Concurrent Processing) servers or equivalent architectures. • Work closely with data engineers, researchers, and platform teams to ensure robust deployment. • Continuously research and integrate emerging techniques in agent-based AI, multi-agent systems, and reinforcement learning. Required Skills & Experience: • 4+ years of experience in AI/ML engineering or data-intensive systems. • Strong proficiency in Python for AI, ML, and data engineering tasks. • Deep experience with Apache Spark (PySpark or Scala-based implementations). • Solid understanding and hands-on experience with modelling intelligent agents, including symbolic, neural, or hybrid approaches. • Experience deploying to and managing workloads on MCP or distributed processing environments. • Familiarity with libraries such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, LangChain, or Ray is a plus. • Ability to write clean, efficient, and well-documented code in a collaborative environment. Desirable: • Experience with multi-agent coordination or LLM-based autonomous agents. • Background in distributed systems, knowledge graphs, or real-time data processing. • Contributions to open-source AI projects or relevant research publications.
