AI Solutions Engineer

ROLE HIGHLIGHTS: - AI Solutions Engineer - Location: Espoo, Finland - Department: Business Applications - Reports to: AI Platform Lead / Head of Business Applications - Employment type: Permanent - Workplace model: Hybrid / Office - Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required) WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS: The Business Applications team focuses on high-impact internal use cases to help the company grow, building internal solutions and facilitating new processes as we scale our data infrastructure, tooling, and operations. As an AI Solutions Engineer, you bridge the gap between rapid AI-assisted product delivery and scalable, governed platform engineering. You will spend roughly 50% of your time taking high-value internal use cases from business needs to reliable, production-grade applications, and 50% of your time collaborating with the AI Platform Lead on our shared internal applications platform, DevOps workflows, and governance guardrails. You think ahead: instead of solving problems with brittle one-off fixes, you turn recurring needs into clean, reusable platform capabilities and help guide our Junior AI Solutions Engineers to do the same.

Your day-to-day responsibilities BUILD AND SHIP INTERNAL APPLICATIONS & AI-ENABLED SOLUTIONS (~50%) - Partner directly with stakeholders across the business to translate operational bottlenecks into clear technical designs and working, scalable applications. - Build, iterate on, and productionize full-stack internal applications and automations (primarily Python/FastAPI, TypeScript/React, and PostgreSQL) using modern AI-first coding workflows (Cursor, Claude Code) and LLM APIs where they add real value. - Design and maintain reliable, governed integrations with core enterprise systems and data sources (e.g., HiBob/HRIS, Salesforce, Databricks, Slack, Jira, Google Workspace, Okta). - Own the full lifecycle of the solutions you build. All the way from rapid prototyping and stakeholder validation to production rollout, documentation, and long-term maintainability. COLLABORATE ON THE INTERNAL TOOLS PLATFORM, DEVOPS & GOVERNANCE (~50%) - Collaborate with the AI Platform Lead to develop, operate, and scale our AWS-based internal applications platform (ECS/Fargate, Aurora PostgreSQL, ALB/CloudFront, ECR, Secrets Manager, EventBridge) managed via Terraform. - Build for scale rather than one-offs: when an application needs a new integration pattern, infrastructure capability, or deployment workflow, design it as a reusable, self-service platform pattern that benefits the entire fleet of internal apps. - Maintain and improve GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines (OIDC, automated security and IaC scanning, plan/apply workflows) and shared platform libraries (authentication, IAM database access, service-to-service communication). - Uphold strong governance, security-by-default, and auditability across the platform by ensuring strict access controls, clear audit trails for sensitive data access and write-backs, least-privilege IAM, and traceable change management.
