Our Social Pinpoint and Consultation Manager platforms are trusted internationally to deliver secure, scalable, and innovative community engagement and stakeholder management experiences.
We’re seeking a Senior AI Engineer to design, build, and ship AI‑powered features across Social Pinpoint and Consultation Manager. You will be the technical lead for AI, partnering with Product, Engineering and Design to turn real customer problems into reliable AI capabilities—primarily using Azure AI Foundry for model orchestration, evaluation, safety, and deployment. You’ll mentor engineers, set best practices, and own the technical implementation of an AI roadmap aligned to product outcomes.
Job RequirementsDeep hands‑on experience building production features with LLMs and modern AI tooling; strong system design and data/ML integration skills.
Expertise with Azure AI Foundry (or Azure AI Studio): model orchestration, prompt flow/evaluation, vector search/RAG, content safety, and deployment.
Strong background in .NET/TypeScript or PHP application development and integration patterns desirable but not required, comfortable shipping AI into existing product surfaces.
You must be eligible to work in Australia full-time.
Key Responsibilities:
Own AI feature delivery from discovery to production: define technical approaches, success metrics, and rollout plans for AI capabilities embedded in existing product workflows (e.g., summarisation, classification, insights, guidance).
Build with Azure AI Foundry: orchestrate LLMs and multimodal services; design prompts/flows; integrate retrieval; implement content safety and evaluation; automate model lifecycle (experimentation → A/B → production).
Raise the bar: establish AI coding standards (prompt patterns, guardrails, telemetry), CI/CD for AI artefacts, and reproducible experiments; document decisions and trade‑offs.
Mentor and multiply: coach developers on AI design reviews, pair programming, and productionising prototypes.
Partner with product teams to translate customer needs into measurable AI outcomes; instrument usage, quality, and reliability; iterate based on data.
