AI Engineer (Data Science Background) | LLM & RAG | Snowflake
š Denmark | Hybrid | Full-time, permanent
Our client is scaling its AI and data function and is looking for an AI Engineer with a strong data science foundation to design and ship production Generative AI applications. You'll work at the intersection of large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and a modern Snowflake data platform ā turning enterprise data into AI-powered tools that real teams rely on.
This is a hands-on, build-and-own role for someone who wants to move GenAI proofs of concept into robust, monitored production systems, not just experiment in notebooks.

- Design, build and deploy LLM-powered applications, agents and copilots from prototype through to production
- Architect and optimise RAG pipelines ā chunking strategy, embedding model selection, vector store management and retrieval/re-ranking tuning
- Build AI and semantic search capability natively within Snowflake, leveraging Cortex functions, Cortex Search and Snowpark (Python)
- Integrate foundation models (e.g. OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, open-source LLMs) via orchestration frameworks such as LangChain or LlamaIndex
- Develop and maintain data pipelines and document ingestion flows that feed AI applications with clean, governed data from Snowflake
- Apply data science fundamentals ā evaluation metrics, experimentation and statistical rigour ā to benchmark and improve performance
- Implement MLOps/LLMOps practices ā versioning, monitoring, logging and evaluation harnesses
