AI Engineer - AI SDLC Tooling & Guardrails
Madrid, Warsaw | Working from home up to 40% | Referencia 8247
Agentic AI is changing how software gets built — and at SIX, it will touch the work of more than thousand engineers. We're building a new team at the center of this shift, responsible for shaping how AI-driven software engineering works across the company. As part of this team, you will build the guardrails that make agentic development trustworthy at scale: the test automation, coverage enforcement, and independent review layers that let AI agents write and ship code without compromising quality.
What You Will Do
- Build AI SDLC tooling as a platform capability, not a project. Its pillars are evaluation of agents, skills and prompts; AI code review in CI; and test automation: agent-driven test generation and maintenance, coverage enforcement on changed lines, flaky-test detection and self-healing, mutation testing, and test-suite health (redundancy, gaps, execution time) across unit, integration, and end-to-end layers.
- Build and operate the AI agent harness. The sandboxed execution environment, tool/permission scoping, and CI/CD integration that lets agents propose, test, and merge code, instrumented with decision logs and action provenance so every agentic change is traceable and reproducible.
- Own the independent review layer for AI-generated code and tests, including AI code review measured for missed defects and false positives: correctness, coverage, and quality gates in CI/CD that verify what an agent produces using tooling the agent doesn’t control, so speed never comes at the cost of test quality or code health.
- Define and evolve the quality and tooling strategy for an AI-driven SDLC: what gets tested where, how test data is generated and managed, how test quality is measured (not just pass/fail, but whether the tests catch regressions), and how the SDLC standards defined by the Enterprise SDLC track are enforced in tooling.
- Treat AI SDLC tooling and guardrails as a product, not a gate. Instrument for adoption, false-positive rate, and developer trust, keeping the safe, well-tested path the fastest path.
What You Bring
- Hands-on familiarity with agentic AI architectures: agent orchestration, tool-use/sandboxing, and harness design, not just conceptual awareness of “AI in the SDLC.”
- 6+ years in software engineering with deep, hands-on expertise in developer tooling or platform engineering. Test automation experience is a strong plus, not a prerequisite. Ideally someone with a track record of building tooling or developer infrastructure that other engineering teams adopted, not just writing test suites.
- Experience evaluating LLM or agent systems (eval sets, error analysis, LLM-as-a-judge) is a strong plus.
- Working knowledge of test methodology and code quality: test pyramids, coverage strategy, mutation testing, flaky-test remediation, and what makes a test suite trustworthy versus just green.
- Platform-product mindset. You build reusable capabilities and pave roads for other engineers, and you measure and strive for adoption and impact across SIX’s business units.
- Working knowledge of governance and controls in a regulated or high-assurance setting. Financial market infrastructure experience is a plus; experience in an adjacent regulated industry counts too.

Questions you could be asked
- How do you decide when an AI agent can act on its own versus asking for approval first?
- How would you decide a model or AI system is ready to ship?
- Tell me about a time a model underperformed in production. How did you find out, and what did you change?
Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: AI agents. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
- Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them. A tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
- Lead with what you built, trained or shipped. This role is judged on the AI system itself, not the tools around it.
