You are passionate about solving complex problems using cutting-edge AI and data technologies. * Hands-on. You have experience with LLMs (e.g. OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, LLaMA), prompt engineering, API integration, and ML frameworks. * Holistic. You understand the full ML lifecycle, including data preparation, model deployment, evaluation, and monitoring. * Communicative. You can break down technical concepts for diverse audiences in English and ideally in German as well. * Supportive. You coach junior team members, provide constructive feedback, and actively contribute to our culture of learning.   Profile: * Degree in computer science, AI, data science or similar field. * Experience: 3+ years of experience in machine learning or AI engineering, with hands-on AI projects in production. * Proficiency in Python and cloud-based AI services (GCP, AWS, or Azure). * Solid understanding of data analysis/engineering and AI-specific components like RAG, prompt design, fine-tuning, embeddings, and model evaluation. * Familiar with DevOps and ML-Ops best practices (Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD). * Strong problem-solving skills, a sense of ownership, and a structured approach to work. * Languages: Business-fluent German and English (both written and spoken) are mandatory to participate in client workshops and deliver polished presentations. * Work Eligibility: A valid work permit for Germany.   Why ARTEFACT? * Challenging projects with national and international clients across industries (e.g. L’Oréal, Samsung, Allianz, Sanofi). * Diverse career paths, promotions based on your performance - not tenure. * Strong team culture and real collaboration across disciplines. * Personal development through workshops, certifications, coaching, and access to partner programs (Google, AWS, etc.). * Attractive benefits: hybrid work, flexible hours, 1 additional day off for your birthday, Christmas & New Year's Eve off, mental health support, 4 weeks of workation, corporate benefits, office brunch, team events, and more.   Let’s shape the future of AI - together!

Upvest

At Upvest, we are on a mission to make investing as easy as spending money. Upvest empowers businesses to offer a wide range of investment products and the best experience in the field of capital market investment and retirement planning. Upvest's Investment API is easy to integrate so that fintechs and financial institutions can save resources and fully focus on their core business. We are proud to partner with Europe's leading fintechs and financial institutions such as DKB, Revolut, N26 and Raisin. Founded in 2017 by Martin Kassing, Upvest now brings together over 270 talented professionals from more than 70 nationalities. We're backed by world-class investors such as Hedosophia, Sapphire, Bessemer Venture Partners, BlackRock, Earlybird, HV Capital, Notion Capital, and Motive Ventures. ABOUT THE ROLE As we enter our next stage of growth, we are looking for an exceptional Applied AI Engineer to join our Engineering team, reporting directly to Yurii Opryshko and working closely together with our SVP Engineering Roberto Fajardo, as well as our business functions. This is a senior individual contributor role at the frontier of how Upvest leverages AI to fundamentally change how our teams work. AI is reshaping how financial infrastructure companies operate — and at Upvest, we're moving fast. As our first dedicated Applied AI hire, you won't be joining a function: you'll be building one. Own our AI implementation at Upvest You will identify where AI creates the most leverage across the business, help select and integrate the right tooling, and ship solutions that teams actually use. This is a hands-on senior IC role with direct impact on how 290+ people work every day. You will connect our AI tools to Upvest's internal systems, integrating Claude and other LLMs with our internal tools, APIs, and data sources via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), building lightweight integrations where needed, and expanding that connectivity as our use cases grow. You'll identify high-impact automation opportunities, build end-to-end workflows using tools like n8n, and make pragmatic calls about when a simple automation beats a complex agent. You lead with the opportunity, not the technology. Work as in-house AI consultant and with each Upvenger to shape their daily work Equally important is your role as an in-house AI consultant. You'll work 1:1 with others across the business, from engineers to operations to client facing teams, helping them rethink and optimise how they work with AI. You'll run discovery sessions, write internal playbooks, and coach colleagues on prompt engineering and AI tooling. Upvest is a BaFin and FCA regulated firm. You understand the constraints that come with that and know how to navigate data privacy, compliance, and audit requirements without needing to be convinced they're real. WHAT YOU BRING * AI Native: Hands-on experience shipping AI agents and building end-to-end automations with tools like n8n. You move fast and stay current. * MCP experience: You've built or worked with MCP servers and know how to connect LLMs to internal tools, APIs and data sources. * Coaching mindset: You've upskilled non-technical teams on AI tooling and driven real adoption — not just built and handed off. * Pragmatism: You define ROI, iterate, and ship — you don't over-engineer. A simple deterministic automation beats a complex agent when appropriate. * Business acumen: You connect technical work to business outcomes — you think in terms of impact, not just implementation. * Stakeholder skills: You can run discovery sessions and present confidently to senior, non-technical audiences. * Regulated industry experience: You've worked in fintech or a closely adjacent field and understand compliance constraints first-hand. * Background: 5+ years in a scale-up, in roles such as solutions engineer, technical consultant, AI product engineer, or similar. * Location: Based in Berlin (mandatory). English required; German a plus. This is not a data science role. We are looking for someone who applies and deploys AI, not someone who trains models or builds ML pipelines. HOW WE UPVEST IN YOU * Best-in-class AI tools: Every Upvenger has €20,000 per year to spend on the best AI tools available — so you're always working with the most powerful models and tooling on the market. * Work with experts: Join a mission-driven engineering team solving hard, real-world problems at the intersection of AI and regulated financial infrastructure. * Professional development: Access an annual budget of €1,500 for personal and professional training to master your craft. * Wellbeing: Recharge with 30 days of annual leave and maintain a healthy lifestyle with sports benefits. Access confidential professional coaching and enjoy the flexibility to work remotely abroad for up to 183 days a year. * Compensation and equity: We believe that all Upvengers contribute to our success and deserve a competitive, above-market salary and a participation in our employee equity program. * Flexible work environment: This role is based in Berlin. We are committed to flexibility — we understand you don't always have to be in the office to do your best work. * Team celebrations: Participate in company-wide events such as UpFest, dinners, offsites and our holiday party to connect with colleagues and celebrate our achievements. OUR VALUES * Make it easy for others. We simplify the complex and act with the best intentions. * Own the outcome. We are proactive, fast and confident to get the job done, valuing progress over perfection. * Rise to the challenge. We aim high and push the boundaries. We stay curious, learn and celebrate our wins together. * Tell the story. We start with the Why to align on purpose. We are transparent and share knowledge to empower and inspire others. Upvest is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
