Ciklum is looking for a Senior Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning Engineer to join our team full-time inin Canada.

We are a custom product engineering company that supports both multinational organizations and scaling startups to solve their most complex business challenges. With a global team of over 4,000 highly skilled developers, consultants, analysts and product owners, we engineer technology that redefines industries and shapes the way people live.

About the role

As a Senior Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning Engineer, become a part of a cross-functional development team, engineering experiences of tomorrow.

We are placing senior AI engineers to design and deliver production agentic AI systems for an enterprise client.

Responsibilities

• You will build autonomous agents on the client’s existing enterprise AI stack
• Glean is the agent platform and OpenAI / GPT Enterprise provides the reasoning layer, deployed on AWS or GCP. This is hands-on build work
• You own agents from design through production, monitoring, and iteration
• You approach agents as production software
• You work in terms of triggers, retrieval, reasoning steps, actions, permissions, evaluation, and observability, and you know how to make an agent reliable, secure, and maintainable at enterprise scale
• Build for maintainability. You favor configuration over custom code and shared services over one-offs, and you keep the bespoke surface area small
• Security and governance by default. You handle credentials, permissions, and sensitive data correctly without being prompted, and you design for audit from the start
• Pragmatic and scale-aware. You design around real platform limits such as tool-call budgets, payload caps, and rate limits before they become production problems
• Client-ready communication. You can explain an architecture decision to a technical buyer, defend it under questioning, and write clearly

Requirements

• 3+ years building with LLMs in production systems that real users depend on
• Hands-on experience designing agentic workflows: tool and function calling, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), multi-step orchestration, and memory
• OpenAI / GPT Enterprise. Deep practical experience with the OpenAI API and GPT Enterprise: model selection, prompt engineering, structured outputs, function calling, cost and latency tuning, and data-handling controls
• Strong prompt-engineering discipline and an evaluation-first approach. You measure agent quality with evals rather than by inspection
• Glean is required. Direct, hands-on production experience with the Glean platform: Agent Builder, Apps, Actions, Model Hub, connectors, and permission-aware retrieval. This is a non-negotiable requirement for the role
• Working knowledge of enterprise search and RAG architecture on Glean: indexing, connectors, retrieval quality, and runtime permission enforcement

Cloud and Engineering:

• AWS and / or GCP. Production experience deploying and operating services on at least one, with comfort across both preferred. IAM, secrets management, networking, and cost awareness
• Strong software engineering fundamentals in Python or equivalent: clean, tested, maintainable code, API design, CI/CD, and version control
• Experience integrating enterprise SaaS systems through API (for example Jira, Slack, Google Workspace, ticketing and GRC tools), including auth flows and webhook and event patterns
• Data engineering competence: moving and transforming data between systems, working with warehouses, and handling sensitive data securely

Desirable:

• Experience locking down and governing enterprise tools, including controlled intake, permission models, and audit trails
• Familiarity with observability and incident response for AI systems: monitoring drift, alerting, and root-cause analysis
• Exposure to regulated or finance and accounting environments where auditability and data governance matter
• Prior consulting or client-facing delivery experience and comfort working embedded with a client’s teams

What`s in it for you?

• Strong community: Work alongside top professionals in a friendly, open-door environment
• Growth focus: Take on large-scale projects with a global impact and expand your expertise
• Tailored learning: Boost your skills with internal events (meetups, conferences, workshops), Udemy access, language courses, and company-paid certifications
• Endless opportunities: Explore diverse domains through internal mobility, finding the best fit to gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge technologies
• Care: Healthcare, Basic Life Insurance, Short and Long-term disability insurance according to the Company’s Benefit Plans
