As the AI Engineer, you will define and execute Akixi’s AI roadmap, combining leadership of architecture and engineering practice with hands-on development of prototypes and production features. You’ll partner with Product, Data, and Platform Engineering to design and integrate AI-driven capabilities such as voice/chatbots, natural-language analytics, and predictive models. This role balances strategic technical direction with hands-on implementation, ensuring Akixi’s AI initiatives deliver tangible business and customer outcomes.

• Lead the definition and delivery of Akixi’s AI strategy and technology roadmap.
• Architect scalable AI solutions integrated into Akixi’s SaaS analytics platform.
• Prototype, develop, and integrate AI-driven components such as chatbots, voice assistants, ML models, and LLM-based analytics.
• Conduct research, proof-of-concepts, and feasibility studies for emerging AI technologies.
• Collaborate with Product Management to scope AI features and align them with business goals.
• Partner with Data Engineering to operationalize models, manage training data, and implement monitoring and retraining pipelines.
• Work closely with Development, DevOps, and QA teams to ensure smooth CI/CD integration and deployment of AI components.
• Establish standards for AI code quality, ethics, and data governance.
• Mentor engineers working on AI-related projects, fostering technical excellence and innovation.
• Evaluate external AI vendors, tools, and frameworks for adoption or integration.

• Proven expertise in developing and integrating AI solutions such as chatbots, voicebots, ML models, or LLM-based analytics.
• Strong proficiency in Python (preferred) and/or JavaScript/TypeScript.
• Hands-on experience with AI frameworks (e.g. Azure OpenAI, OpenAI API, Anthropic and/or AWS Bedrock).
• Experience with Microsoft Bot Framework, Dialogflow, or similar conversational-AI platforms.
• Deep understanding of prompt engineering and fine-tuning of large language models.
• Strong grounding in ML concepts — supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning.
• Familiarity with cloud AI/ML services (e.g. Azure Cognitive Services, AWS SageMaker, and/or GCP Vertex AI).
• Experience deploying and monitoring AI workloads in CI/CD environments (e.g. Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes, and/or AWS).
• Ability to design data pipelines, APIs, and microservice integrations supporting AI features.
• Proven ability to lead technically while remaining hands-on in design and coding.

Experience with call/contact-centre analytics, Microsoft Teams Graph API, or telephony platforms.

Knowledge of data governance, model ethics, and MLOps practices.

Exposure to data visualization and predictive analytics for customer-experience metrics.

Advanced degree in AI, ML, Data Science, or related discipline.
