Job Description

We're working with a globally recognised engineering and advisory firm on a genuinely exciting, newly created hire — and I'd love to tell you about it.

n

They're bringing an AI Engineer into their People team for the first time. This is a hands‐on, strategic role sitting at the intersection of AI innovation and human experience — with a real mandate to shape how thousands of employees experience work.

n

And here's what makes this one a little different: my client is open to candidates earlier in their career. If you have strong technical foundations, a curious mindset, and a genuine enthusiasm for what AI can do — we want to hear from you.

n

The opportunity

n

This is a hands‐on coding and agent development role — not strategy or vendor management.

n

You'll be embedded in the People function, building and deploying AI solutions that improve how the business handles careers, performance, and goal‐setting, starting with a focused 6–12 month roadmap.

n

n
- Build and test AI agents for HR use cases — chatbots, workflow automation, and more
n
- Lead discovery, prototyping, and pilot projects before scaling solutions
n
- Integrate AI into platforms including Workday, Microsoft Copilot, and Teams
n
- Act as the bridge between People, IT, and Digital teams for scalable, secure AI delivery
n
- Apply ethical AI principles — privacy, fairness, and accountability at every step
n




- Monitor market trends and recommend current AI applications as the function evolves
n
- 2+ years hands‐on experience developing agentic AI solutions
n
- Strong understanding of automation and AI workflow design
n
- Ability to translate complex technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders
n
- Experience in pilot testing and scaling digital solutions
n

n

Nice to have

n

n
- Familiarity with Workday, Copilot, Teams etc
n
- Knowledge of HR systems
n
- Familiarity with ethical AI frameworks
n

n

Importantly

n

— extensive business experience isn't essential. This role is about attitude, curiosity, and technical capability. If you're earlier in your career but hungry to make an impact, this could be a career‐defining move.

n

Why this one stands out

n

My client isn't just adding an AI resource — they're investing in someone to build a capability from the ground up. This is an individual contributor role to start, with real potential to grow as the function expands.

n

n
- You'll be the first — shape the approach, the tools, and the roadmap
n
- Supported from day one — you'll onboard alongside an established AI Digital team
n
- A seat at the table — reporting into senior People leadership with genuine influence
n
- Hybrid flexibility — based in Melbourne, with Sydney considered for the right person
n
- Strong culture — recognised for inclusion, gender equality, LGBTI+ inclusion, and wellbeing
