At Roche, we are committed to delivering greater benefits to our patients by applying digital, data, and AI capabilities to real-world operational challenges. The AI Engineer is a senior hands-on technical contributor within the AI Engineering Cluster, responsible for designing, delivering, evaluating, and operating robust AI solutions across Pharma Technical Operations.

This role owns meaningful parts of end-to-end AI delivery, including solution architecture, data pipelines, machine learning and GenAI systems, agentic workflows, AI evaluation harnesses, backend services, user interfaces, and production operations. The role partners with business, IT, quality, and technical experts to translate complex operational challenges into reliable, scalable, compliant, and measurable AI-enabled products.

The role is a senior AI engineering role for someone who combines strong technical depth with practical delivery ownership. The AI Engineer is expected to independently lead solution delivery, make sound architectural decisions, mentor other engineers, and ensure AI solutions create measurable business value while meeting reliability, scalability, evaluation, agent management, and compliance expectations.

• End-to-end delivery ownership:
  Own the technical delivery of AI solutions from problem understanding and design through build, deployment, monitoring, evaluation, adoption, and continuous improvement.
• Solution architecture:
  Design scalable AI application architectures, including data flows, model integration, GenAI orchestration, APIs, user interfaces, agent workflows, and production infrastructure.
• GenAI and agentic AI:
  Design and implement advanced GenAI solutions, including RAG architectures, multi-step workflows, tool-using agents, LLM orchestration, and evaluation approaches.
• Engineering quality:
  Apply and help evolve strong engineering practices, including automated testing, code reviews, CI/CD, observability, documentation, and maintainability.
• Production performance:
  Ensure AI solutions are reliable, secure, monitored, cost-aware, and continuously improved in production or production-like environments.
• Value delivery:
  Translate business needs into technical solutions and help define success metrics that demonstrate operational and business impact.

• Evaluation framework design:
  Design and implement data science-driven evaluation frameworks for AI, GenAI, RAG, and agentic AI systems, including offline benchmarks, golden datasets, synthetic test cases, human evaluation workflows, and automated regression testing.
• AI harness development:
  Own the development of AI engineering harnesses for repeatable experimentation, evaluation, validation, and comparison of models, prompts, retrieval strategies, agent behaviors, and tool integrations.
• Agentic AI solution ownership:
  Design and deliver production-grade agentic AI systems, including agent orchestration, tool integration, task decomposition, state handling, memory patterns, guardrails, and human escalation paths.
• Agent lifecycle management:
  Manage deployed agents across their lifecycle, including versioning, testing,…
