AI Engineer

About Digital Futures

Digital Futures is an AI services and software company that specialises in accelerating AI transformation and enabling AI governance for enterprise and government.

The Role

We are looking for an experienced consultant who can design the architecture, build working systems, and take them from demo to a scaled, governed deployment inside a regulated financial institution. This is a hands-on build role, not an advisory one. The successful candidate will combine practical agentic AI engineering with knowledge graph and entity-resolution experience, and will be comfortable operating within a bank’s control environment.

Key Responsibilities

Architecture design

• - Design and deploy agentic AI workflows to automate investment sourcing, market research, due diligence and document generation.
• - Design and maintain a venture intelligence knowledge graph covering companies, founders, investors and transactions.
• - Define AI architecture, data governance, provenance and quality standards across internal and external data sources.

Agent development

• - Develop AI agents to analyse companies, markets and investment opportunities using structured and unstructured data.
• - Build automated diligence workflows that extract, validate and synthesise information from pitch decks, financials, research reports and industry databases.
• - Develop portfolio intelligence capabilities to monitor performance, financing activity, competitive developments and strategic risks.
• - Integrate with approved internal and external data sources, including CRM, market data and portfolio management platforms.

Production and governance

• - Deploy and optimise RAG, agent orchestration and knowledge graph services within the bank’s approved technology environment.
• - Implement monitoring and evaluation frameworks covering accuracy, quality, cost and operational performance.
• - Ensure solutions are secure, auditable and reproducible.

Experience and Profile

• - Strong experience in software, AI or data engineering, including the design and delivery of production-grade solutions.
• - Proven track record of building and deploying agentic AI systems in production environments.
• - Strong Python development and API integration experience.
• - Experience with knowledge graphs, semantic search and retrieval systems.
• - Familiarity with MCP and related tool integration standards.
• - Experience deploying solutions on AWS or GCP.
