Senior AI Platforms & Cloud Engineer

Job ID: 31721

Welcome to Core Technology, where we pride ourselves on engineering solutions and platforms with a direct impact to Nordea´s 2030 strategy goals to modernize our data technology state and accelerate AI across the organization.

We are looking for an Senior Cloud & AI Platform Engineer to join our Data-AI-Integration team. You will join a small, agile team with a mandate to drive impact across Nordea. Your success after one year means we have a robust, reusable platform with happy internal customers running in production.

About our team  

Welcome to the Data-AI-Integration team. We are building the next-generation AI backbone for Nordea. This is not a maintenance role; you are joining to design, build, and scale a centralized, opinionated AI Platform that balances rapid delivery with banking-grade security. You will be the bridge between complex infrastructure and high-profile business value, enabling predictive and generative AI use cases to move from concept to production safely and efficiently.

This is a fulltime permanent position with a hybrid working location in either Helsinki, Finland, or Gdansk / Gdynia, Poland.

What you’ll be doing

Main responsibilities in this role include, but are not limited to:

• You won't just provision resources; you will form opinions and design reusable integration patterns that standardize how we do AI. You will balance the freedom developers need with the governance a bank requires.
• You will engineer the infrastructure supporting our most advanced capabilities, utilizing AWS SageMaker, Bedrock, and AgentCore to power LLM and predictive workflows.
• You will move beyond "proof of concept" code. You are responsible for designing production-quality services, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure that stands up to the rigors of a highly regulated industry.
• As a senior member of the team, you will mentor engineers, collaborate closely with data scientists and DevOps, and help grow a new, engineering-driven team culture.

Who you are

This is the right role for you if you:

• proven, hands-on experience designing and building production-quality applications or services on AWS and other cloud providers. You understand the difference between "it works on my machine" and "it works at scale."
• treat infrastructure as software. You are comfortable writing Python and managing complex environments with Terraform
• have the soft skills to collaborate across functions. You can speak "Data Science" to the modelers and "Security" to the CISOs, ensuring our platform is both usable and compliant
  have a genuine interest in the evolving landscape of AI (LLMs, Agentic workflows) and know how to pragmatically apply new concepts to solve real business problems

Your background and skills include:

• BSc or MSc in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Engineering Physics, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• 10+ years of experience in testing, maintaining, launching AI/ML products, working with MLOps best practices and DevOps environment (CI/CD pipelines, Docker, container orchestration)
• Experience in training, evaluation, fine-tuning and deployment of predictive models; including feature selection, hyper-parameter tuning, error analysis and data visualization
• Vast experience and track record of successfully working with the following tech stacks:
  - Infrastructure as Code: Terraform (Essential), Python
  - AI/ML Platform: Amazon SageMaker, AWS Bedrock, AgentCore
  - Data Platform: S3, AWS Glue, Lake Formation
  - Languages: Python (Primary), SQL
• Experience working with public cloud providers (AWS, Azure or GCP), especially their serverless, ML (e.g., AWS SageMaker), or data storage services as well as Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
• Skilled at transforming complex ideas into clear, engaging explanations—whether you're presenting to a technical team or breaking things down for non-experts

It would be ideal if you also:

• Have professional experience from working in regulated industries, i.e. Banking, Government, etc.
