AI Lead

Shape the technical future of AI at Uni-Tankers. At Uni-Tankers, we see AI as an opportunity to work smarter, make better decisions, and create greater value across the business. We are looking for an AI Solutions Architect/Engineer who can turn business needs and enterprise data into secure, reliable, and practical AI solutions. As our first AI specialist, you will have a unique opportunity to help shape how AI is designed, developed, and applied across Uni-Tankers. You will be hands-on in building agents, integrations, and AI-enabled solutions. This role is for someone who enjoys building the solutions that empower the organization in a meaningful way. Reporting to Thomas Thomsen, CFO, you will play a key role in connecting business needs, data, and technology. You will work closely with colleagues across the organization, including our Business Intelligence Controller, to make effective use of enterprise data and take AI solutions from early ideas into secure and maintainable production use. Your responsibilities will include:

• Understanding business needs and translating them into AI solutions
• Designing, building, testing, and deploying AI agents and applications
• Collaborating with stakeholders, partners, and consultants while retaining technical ownership
• Embedding security, governance, compliance, and responsible AI into solutions from day one
• Contributing to the AI roadmap by prioritizing opportunities based on impact and feasibility

Are you the one to build our AI foundation? We are looking for someone who combines technical capabilities with curiosity, ownership, and business understanding. You may have a background in software engineering, data engineering, cloud architecture, machine learning engineering, applied AI, solution architecture, or a related field. Your exact background is less important than your ability to design, build, and deliver AI solutions that work reliably in practice. You are comfortable moving between architecture and implementation. You can discuss a business challenge with a non-technical colleague, translate it into a technical solution, and then contribute directly to building and operating that solution. You likely:

• Experience delivering AI, data, or software solutions from concept to production
• Experience with Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, Copilot, and Foundry, including security, governance, and compliance
• Solid understanding of data engineering, ETL processes, data lakes, APIs, and systems integration
• Ability to make sound technical decisions balancing security, reliability, performance, maintainability, user experience, and cost
• Strong communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical topics into clear business recommendations
• Experience in business process optimization and identifying opportunities for improvement
• A proactive and curious mindset, combining technical skills with the ability to understand business needs across functions

Experience with Microsoft Copilot Studio, Microsoft Foundry, Azure, Power Platform, Microsoft Fabric, OneLake, or similar technologies would be an advantage. More importantly, you have a demonstrated ability to deliver real-world AI, data, or software solutions, regardless of platform or academic background. Not checking every box? You do not need to meet every requirement to do well in this role. AI technologies continue to develop rapidly, and we value people who can learn, adapt, and apply solid technical principles across different platforms. If the opportunity excites you and you believe you can make a meaningful contribution, we welcome your application. What you can look forward to At Uni-Tankers, people make the difference. You will join a collaborative culture built on trust, ownership, and teamwork. In this role, you will have a unique opportunity to help establish our technical AI foundation and shape how AI is applied across the organization. You will work closely with colleagues across functions and locations, turning business needs, technology, and data into practical solutions that create value for both the business and the people behind it. You will have room to shape technical decisions, development practices, architecture, and future priorities while remaining close to hands-on delivery. In return, we offer:

• An international environment with knowledgeable and dedicated colleagues
• A high degree of influence and ownership in a strategically important area
• The opportunity to build and implement solutions rather than only advise on them
• Close collaboration with colleagues working with data, technology, operations, and business development
• Attractive employee benefits, including pension, health insurance, and lunch arrangement
• Social activities and events throughout the year
• Modern office facilities at our headquarters in Middelfart.
