Job Description

Develop the agentic future of AXA! As an AI Engineer (m/f/d), you will design and develop intelligent AI agents that automate complex processes in payments, finance, and HR—from the initial idea to production deployment. You will have significant creative freedom, work closely with business units and IT, and implement innovative Generative AI solutions with real business impact. Bring your ideas to life and help us shape the next generation of intelligent applications at AXA!

What awaits you

You will develop innovative AI agents using Python—from conceptualizing suitable use cases to implementation, integration, and production deployment in payments, finance, and HR.

You will orchestrate multi-step AI workflows using function calling, structured outputs, and context management, while integrating SAP systems and related applications.

You will develop reusable Python components, services, and technical foundations by identifying commonalities across different AI applications and converting them into scalable solutions.

You will work closely with business units, IT teams, and other interfaces, explore new topics and complex system landscapes, and translate business requirements into practical AI solutions.

You will reliably bring your applications into operation through automated testing, evaluation, and monitoring, and continuously optimize them for performance, stability, and quality.

You will ensure the reliable operation of your applications through monitoring, alerting, and incident management, while adhering to data protection, security, and group-wide governance requirements.

What you bring

You have a completed degree in computer science, business informatics, data science, software engineering, or a comparable field of study.

You have several years of professional experience in software development with Python and in developing agentic AI applications, and ideally have experience with agent frameworks as well as in the SAP environment.

Innovation & Change Competence: You are eager to experiment with new technologies, adapt to changing requirements, and further develop your own ideas for the use of agentic AI.

Communication Skills: You can explain complex technical contexts in an understandable and target-group-oriented manner, document your solutions clearly, and actively listen to your stakeholders' requirements.

Data & Digital Competence: You combine sound Python knowledge with experience in developing agentic AI applications, particularly with function calling, structured outputs, context management, and the orchestration of multi-step AI workflows. You are familiar with automated testing and the evaluation of LLM applications and take security, data protection, and governance requirements into account. You are familiar with sustainable software development using clean code, test-driven development, code reviews, and Git.

Team & Collaboration Skills: You quickly familiarize yourself with new topics and system landscapes, work constructively with changing interdisciplinary teams, and share your knowledge through documentation and constructive feedback.

Customer & Service Orientation: You understand the requirements of your internal customers, think in terms of practical and user-oriented solutions, and take responsibility for the quality, security, and reliable deployment of your applications.

You communicate very well in German (at least C1 level) and English and can confidently exchange ideas with technical and business stakeholders.

What we offer

You can expect flexible working hours with a 38-hour work week and a flextime model, 30 vacation days plus Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, as well as the option to work remotely 60 % of the time.

Look forward to fair compensation, company pension schemes, and capital-forming benefits.
