AI Deployment Engineering Manager

Accenture Song is the world’s largest tech-powered creative group. Within Song, our Design & Digital Products practice helps iconic brands reinvent the products, services, and spaces that define their relationship with customers — from defining product strategy and crafting human-centred digital experiences, to engineering the AI-powered platforms and design systems that bring them to life at scale.

We operate like a studio: small teams, high craft standards, and a direct line between design decisions and shipped products. Our team spans Product Design, Product Management, Engineering, Experience Design, and Content Design across 70 Song Studios worldwide. AI is not a feature layer we add — it is the architecture we build around.

You will embed directly into Accenture's priority accounts across Central and Eastern Europe. You are the technical owner on the ground, scoping problems, building solutions, closing the AI last mile, and demonstrating what AI-native delivery actually looks like.

You are a senior technical practitioners who owns outcomes end-to-end and pulls AI tools forward into real delivery contexts and impact. You work at the intersection of engineering, product thinking, and client delivery. The expectation is that you can go from a vague client problem to a working proof of concept in days - and from there to a production-grade deployment in weeks.

You have deep roots in software engineering and a genuine instinct for design — you understand that in Song’s studio model, the distance between an engineering decision and a user experience is deliberately short. You bring that awareness to every line of code and every client conversation.

Accenture Song is a radical commitment to the outcome. You will embed directly inside client organisations — sitting with their product teams, attending their standups, learning their systems, and building alongside their engineers. You will carry your laptop into rooms where decisions get made and your code into production environments where consequences are real.

You will move from problem framing to working prototype to production deployment within a single engagement — leaving behind systems that run, documentation that teams can maintain, and patterns that the practice can scale. You will then move to the next client and do it again.

• Production-First Engineering: Design, build, and ship production-grade AI applications directly inside client systems — including custom agents, LLM-powered workflows, MCP servers, sub-agents, and agent skills that integrate with the client’s existing technology estate.
• Full-Stack Delivery: Own the complete delivery stack: backend logic, API integrations, front-end surfaces, and cloud infrastructure. Whatever blocks the work becomes your job to write — there is no hand-off queue.
• Rapid Prototype to Production: Compress the gap between concept and working software. Run short, sharp prototype cycles to validate AI approaches, then drive them into production without losing the rigour that enterprise environments demand.
• Systems Integration: Connect AI-native capabilities to the client’s existing platforms — integrating APIs, data pipelines, identity systems, and enterprise tooling to ensure new AI workflows operate within, not alongside, the client’s reality.

• Deep Client Embedding: Operate inside the client’s environment as a trusted technical partner — attending team ceremonies, earning access to production systems, understanding organisational dynamics, and building the relationships that make complex deployments succeed.
• Diagnosis Under Ambiguity: Scope messy, under-defined problems into tractable engineering challenges.…
