Novigi is the data and technology partner to the Financial Services Industry with offices in Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Wollongong and Colombo, Sri Lanka. At our core, we are data-driven transformation and business optimisation experts. We partner with our clients to transform their business functions through the clever use of data and interoperability. We do this by offering a range of services and solutions.
We are seeking a Forward Deployed AI Engineer to lead the rapid identification, design and prototyping of AI-assisted enterprise technology solutions in the superannuation administration and registry domain.
Working within the Platform Support & Operations line of business, this role applies AI to boost productivity, strengthen platform capability, and enhance outcomes for clients. The AI Specialist will identify opportunities to automate, optimise, and innovate across systems and processes to deliver measurable business impact.
This is a new and rapidly evolving capability at the intersection of business analysis, AI coding fluency, and delivery excellence. You will work hands-on with AI coding tools to accelerate prototype development, collaborate with business and technology stakeholders through rapid iteration sprints, and ensure the rigor, risk management, and governance expected within financial services. You will lead engagements through a sprint delivery model:
- Sprint 1 – Feature Development: starting with a working prototype, you’ll facilitate ideation, feature design, and real-time user validation through intensive two-week working sessions.
- Sprint 2 – Non-Functional Readiness: you’ll ensure operational robustness through code audit, performance testing, security hardening, and deployment readiness, representing the solution confidently into business and technology forums.
This is a hands-on role requiring both business and technical fluency, exceptional stakeholder engagement skills, and the ability to translate complex concepts into practical, value-driven outcomes.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead business and technical working sessions with stakeholders to refine, prioritise, and deliver key solution features.
- Build and manage AI-coded prototypes using platforms such as Replit, Codex, or Cursor, ensuring feature delivery aligns with sprint objectives.
- Translate user needs into functional and non-functional requirements with precision and traceability.
- Collaborate with developers, AI tools, and business SMEs to iterate on solutions in real time.
- Oversee Sprint 2 readiness and coordinate security, performance, and audit activities to ensure enterprise-grade compliance.
- Apply structured delivery discipline for maintaining artefacts, decision logs, risks, and governance traceability.
- Represent the solution to senior business and IT stakeholders, ensuring alignment with regulatory, risk, and data governance frameworks.
- Whilst an opportunity backlog exists, in future, you will be responsible for identifying opportunities that will result in cost optimisation or growth for the division
- Support knowledge transfer, documentation, and transition to business-as-usual or scale teams.
Key Skills & Experience:
- Strong business analysis capability with ability to identify opportunities, lead workshops, elicit requirements, and translate business needs into actionable deliverables.
- Demonstrated fluency with AI coding tools (e.g., Replit, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex) to rapidly prototype prioritised use cases
- Demonstrable experience in working closely with Data Scientists, AI and Platform Engineers.
- Excellent understanding of enterprise technology concepts, including APIs, integration, data models, deployments security.
- Confident facilitator with proven experience engaging users in prototype-driven development cycles.
- Strong diagnostic and problem-solving skills, able to troubleshoot functional and technical issues in real time.
- Solid grounding in delivery discipline — sprint planning, issue tracking, dependency management, and governance.
- Clear and confident communicator who builds rapport easily with both business and technical audiences.
- Exposure to agile, lean, or design-thinking methodologies.
- Prior experience taking technology products from prototype to MVP to scale in enterprise settings.
Nice to have:
- Superannuation industry experience and familiarity with administration, registry, and member data management systems.
- Experience working within regulated financial services environments, including risk, compliance, and control frameworks.
About You:
You are an energetic and positive professional who thrives at the intersection of business and technology. You are equally comfortable facilitating user workshops, prompting an AI coding tool, presenting solutions to senior stakeholders and working with technology teams to operationalise the solutions. You enjoy solving complex problems in real time and can bring structure and composure to ambiguity. You value delivery discipline, governance, and integrity but also embrace innovation and pace.
Only those candidates chosen to proceed will be contacted.
