About the role

PRA has been engaged to build out three engineering tracks across the financial services sector for a client in Sydney. Hiring at three levels: Senior AI Engineer, AI Engineering Lead and Senior AI Engineering Lead

You'll take LLM applications and agents past the prototype and into production, in an environment where they have to be trustworthy.

The role
  • Build LLM-powered applications and agentic workflows in Python on Amazon Bedrock and AgentCore, using foundation models including Claude and frameworks such as Strands Agents or LangGraph
  • Engineer retrieval and context: ingestion, chunking, embeddings, hybrid search, and MCP servers connecting models to enterprise tools and data
  • Make quality measurable with evaluation datasets, automated evals and regression tests for prompts, retrieval and agent behaviour
  • Run AI like real software with IaC, CI/CD, tracing and cost monitoring, plus guardrails, PII handling and audit logging
  • At Lead level and above: own AI platform architecture, take use cases such as customer servicing, lending and financial crime to production, and grow a team
What you'll bring
  • Senior AI Engineer: 3-6 years, including 1-2+ years building ML or GenAI. Lead: 6-10 years, including 3+ in ML/GenAI. Senior Lead: 10-15 years, typically with 4+ in ML/GenAI
  • Strong Python and software engineering fundamentals
  • Hands-on LLM work on AWS (Bedrock or SageMaker AI), covering RAG, prompt design and tool use
  • At least one AI solution you've taken past proof of concept into production and kept running
  • Financial services or regulated industry experience is preferred
It's a bonus if you've worked with AgentCore, MCP, LLM-as-judge evaluation or AI guardrails, have a consulting background, or hold AWS GenAI or ML certifications.

Culture
  • An AI engineering community at the front of what these platforms can do, sharing what works
  • Mentoring and coaching at every level
  • Hybrid in Sydney, with time on site with the team at agreed intervals
What's on offer
  • $120k-$240k package, depending on level
  • Permanent, or contract at $800-$1,200 per day
  • Support to gain AWS AI and ML certifications
  • A fast process: CVs reviewed within 48 hours and no take-home or live coding test
If this sounds like an opportunity for you or someone you know, "Apply now" or message Guy Nardo at PRA for a confidential conversation. These roles have the opportunity to start before Christmas.
