AI Enablement Lead

Uni Systems is the leading and most reliable systems integrator in the region, digitally transforming our clients’ businesses across 25 European countries. Within our International Business Unit, we design, build, and operate large-scale, mission-critical Trans-European IT systems for EU institutions and agencies.

We are building AI into the way our Engineering teams deliver software for European institutions and agencies - across architecture, business analysis, development, testing, and project management. This role is how we do it: not through slide decks, but by proving what works on a live client engagement first, then scaling it across the department.

You will be embedded in the Delivery Team of a major EU agency engagement, using AI tools daily on real work under real constraints, and building repeatable workflows that survive contact with a regulated environment. Alongside that, a protected share of your time goes to enablement work across the Engineering Department - capturing what works, sharing it, and building the internal community.

You will lead through influence rather than formal authority. You will design the workflows, templates, and enablement materials, and advise on tooling, spend, and learning paths - but what each team adopts is up to that team and its lead. You will work through the Practice Managers and the practitioners already using AI in their own projects, and you will be supported in doing so.

The role is based in Athens and works on a hybrid basis. You will report to the Head of the Engineering Department and, functionally, to the Delivery Manager for client-facing work. Expect occasional travel to the client site and to EU institutional events.

You do not need to have led an AI transformation before. What matters is that you already use these tools seriously in your own work, are credible in front of engineers and clients, and want to grow with the role as the practice builds around you.

What will you be bringing to the team?

Where you start, and where most of your time sits.

• Deliver as a senior member of the engagement team - hands-on across the SDLC phases relevant to your background.
• Apply AI tooling to real delivery work (Microsoft 365 Copilot, Git Hub Copilot, Claude, OpenAI) and build repeatable, production-ready workflows, reusable prompts and SDLC-aligned templates from it - documenting what works and what does not, in a form that transfers to other engagements.
• Establish, with the client and our security and legal functions, what may and may not be processed by hosted AI services under the engagement’s contractual, data-protection and IP constraints - and design workflows that respect those limits, making use of our in-house private AI environment where data cannot leave our control. This is a precondition for everything else, not an afterthought.
• Keep humans accountable for outcomes: AI output is an input to engineering judgement, never a final decision. Set and hold that standard within the team.
• Build the client relationship and act as a credible point of reference for AI questions arising in the engagement.

Running alongside the engagement from the outset, with protected time.

• Act as an internal consultant to delivery teams: understand how each team actually works, advise on where AI can realistically help in their context rather than applying one template across all of them, and turn that into structured recommendations they can act on, with the trade-offs, effort and risks made explicit.
• Build on the internal AI strategic initiative already underway: run hands-on sessions, share working examples, and connect colleagues across architecture, business analysis and engineering who already use these tools in their projects.
• Establish the department’s AI adoption baseline - what tools are in use, by whom, for what, and to what effect - so that later progress can be measured against something real.
• Support the AI Governance Office in ope rationalising responsible-AI practice within the Engineering Department - transparency, human oversight, traceability, and appropriate use of AI output in deliverables - and help colleagues meet the AI literacy duty under Article 4 of the EU AI Act.
• Track and report AI tooling spend for the department, flag anomalies, and contribute to business cases for new tooling. Budget ownership remains with Finance and the Head of the Engineering Department.
