The Team

The AI Lab is A&M;’s forward-deployed AI engineering capability within Digital & Technology Services EMEA, launching from Madrid.
We embed inside client teams to architect, build, and ship AI agents, automations, and accelerators that move from advisory insight into production reality—and stay there.
We partner closely with A&M; consulting teams (PEPI, CTS, FSI, DTS) to scope, assess feasibility, and deliver on client platforms with their people, processes, and controls.





How you will contribute

Own the solution architecture for AI engagements: what gets built, on which platform, how it integrates, and how it will be operated post-handover.
Lead a small embedded squad (typically 2–3 engineers), setting the bar for quality, code review, delivery pace, and technical rigor.
Shape work pre-engagement: collaborate with PEPI, CTS, FSI, and DTS during scoping; size effort honestly; distinguish viable use cases from those that won’t sustain value.
Be the senior technical voice with client executives (CIO, data leaders, process owners), including when messages are challenging.
Build alongside the team—this is a hands-on architect role with direct contributions to the codebase.
Own non-functional requirements: security, data protection, EU AI Act obligations, evaluation/monitoring, reliability, and a handover that keeps solutions operating.
