AI in this role
The shift to AI does not make people less important — it makes engineering craft and architectural judgment even more valuable.
The Mission
At Tieto BankTech, we are expanding our AI Transformation team to bring practical, AI-driven ways of working into engineering teams and products. Our work is grounded in real systems, real constraints, and the long-term modernization of core banking technology.
The Team
You will join a small, focused core team that combines deep technical expertise with hands-on engineering experience. The team includes PhDs with backgrounds from Google, YouTube, and Microsoft, alongside experienced engineers with strong expertise in machine learning and software development.
The Challenge
Our work sits at the intersection of modern AI and business-critical legacy systems — from mainframes and GPUs to mobile applications. This role is not just about writing code. It is about improving how software is built, maintained, and modernized, while helping other teams move faster and work more effectively.
Depending on the day, you may contribute as a developer, architect, DevOps engineer, or product-minded technical advisor. You are not expected to be an expert in every area, but you should be comfortable working across disciplines, testing ideas, and finding practical ways forward.
What You’ll Do
Identify where AI can create real value in products and engineering practices
Shape patterns, architectures, and best practices for AI-enabled solutions
Use AI-assisted workflows to understand, analyze, and modernize legacy technology
Help teams evaluate new tools and adopt AI-supported workflows across development, testing, and operations
Who You Are
- You have a strong background in software development and complex systems architecture
- You have practical experience with AI, either from professional work or serious hands-on projects
- You have a strong interest in GenAI, LLMs, RAG, agentic workflows, and local models
- You understand technical trade-offs and algorithmic complexity
- You care about security, testing, and operational stability in a banking environment
- You communicate clearly and work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Why join us?
- A meaningful job – You help safeguard essential services that people rely on daily for financial transactions.
- Opportunities for professional growth - you will build good competence across all Banktech Services
- A supportive and collaborative team that values curiosity, learning, and innovation
- Flexible hybrid work model

Skills and AI tools this role asks for
Questions you could be asked
- How would you design a retrieval step so the model answers from real data instead of guessing?
- How do you decide when an AI agent can act on its own versus asking for approval first?
- Describe a typical day in a role like this one: which parts run through AI directly?
- If you removed AI from this role, what would be left, and how do you decide what still needs a human?
Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: RAG and 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.
- Show where AI is part of your daily process, not a one-off project. This role expects it to be a running habit.
