Project overview

Senior GenAI/AI Engineering Consultant

Contract: Initial 3-Month Contract

We are supporting a major organisation undertaking a large-scale AI and document intelligence transformation programme. They are seeking an experienced Senior GenAI/AI Engineering Consultant to design and deliver enterprise-grade Generative AI solutions within a highly regulated environment.

This is a hands-on role requiring experience building production-ready GenAI applications rather than proof-of-concept solutions. You will work across LLM architecture, RAG frameworks, document intelligence, vector search, and AWS cloud-native AI services.

• Strong understanding of data quality controls and validation frameworks.
• Hands-on experience with Amazon Bedrock and foundation models such as Claude.
• Experience implementing prompt engineering, guardrails, safety controls, and model benchmarking.
• Strong AWS development experience using Python and Boto3.
• Experience implementing semantic search solutions using Amazon OpenSearch Service.
• Knowledge of:
• Vector indexing and embedding storage
• k-NN search configuration
• Hybrid search (keyword + semantic)
• Performance optimisation for large-scale retrieval workloads
• Strong Python development experience within production environments.
• Experience with:
• LangChain
• LlamaIndex
• LangGraph or CrewAI
• AWS SDK (Boto3)
