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 oper
