AI Engineer
suitsupply · Full-time · Posted 2w ago
As one of Suitsupply’s first dedicated AI Engineers, you will build the agents that turn our GCP data platform and governed context layer into automated, tool-calling workflows running real business processes. This role is forward-deployed: you will embed with the teams doing the work, identify the highest-leverage processes to automate, and ship production-grade agents rather than prototypes. You will lay the reusable “golden path” — skills, connectors, evals, and templates — that make every agent built after yours faster to deliver. Joining early means helping shape the Data & AI team’s standards as it scales, with your impact measured in agents shipped and hours returned to the business. You will report into the Director of Data.
What You Will Do
- Embed with the teams doing the work, map how a process actually runs, and identify the single highest-leverage opportunity to automate.
- Build tool-calling agents on our platform that take real processes off people’s plates as reliable production systems, not prototypes.
- Turn every build into reusable skills, connectors, evals, and templates, so agent-building gets faster each time.
- Hand off cleanly, leaving a running system with a runbook, an eval framework, and a named owner.
- Define what “good” looks like for agents — accuracy, cost, guardrails, sensitive-data handling — and mentor the per-team champions who scale it.
- A production software engineer first, with strong Python and real fundamentals in testing, APIs, version control, and observability.
- Proven experience building agentic workflows, RAG, and tool-calling systems that run in production, not just in demos.
- Evaluation-driven: you set a baseline, define the metrics that matter, and prove with numbers that a change moved the needle.
- Fluent in GCP and Vertex AI, comfortable in the Claude ecosystem (Claude Code, MCP, skills), and at home in BigQuery.
- Forward-deployed by temperament, thriving in ambiguity and able to translate business problems into technical plans for a director and an engineer alike.
- Approximately 5+ years in software engineering with production AI experience, strong product sense, and the judgment to know when to prototype, harden, or stop.
- Autonomy: We empower you to take ownership, make meaningful decisions, and drive impact without layers of sign-off.
- Growth: We see your potential as a key asset. At Suitsupply, you’ll have abundant opportunities to learn, grow, and excel in a supportive environment that encourages development at every step.
- Corporate Social Responsibility: Our commitment to sustainability and ethical business is unwavering. We work exclusively with suppliers who uphold the highest standards, in alignment with the International Labour Organization.
- Style: Immerse yourself in a world of beautifully crafted, high-quality products, and enjoy a 40% discount on Suitsupply products.
- Compensation: We offer a competitive salary of €68,000 - €88,000 annually, based on relevant skills and experience.
