Job Description:
DB Global Technology is Deutsche Bank’s technology centre in Central and Eastern Europe. Since its set-up in 2013, Bucharest Technology Centre (BEX) has constantly proven its capacity to deliver global technology products and services, playing a dynamic role in the Bank’s technology transformation.
We have a robust, hands-on engineering culture dedicated to continuous learning, knowledge-sharing, technical skill development and networking. We are an essential part of the Bank’s technology platform and develop applications for many important business areas.
Senior engineer role in a GCP-native AI engineering team within the Credit Risk team, building customer-facing solutions and agentic workflows for regulated banking use cases. The team delivers LLM-powered process orchestration on Google Cloud (Vertex AI, ADK, RAG), with strong focus on production quality, governance, and scalable delivery.
Responsibilities
- Design and deliver agentic workflows using Google ADK and Vertex AI, integrating reliable tool-calling with enterprise services and clear fallback/escalation paths.
- Build and operate RAG-enabled chatbot capabilities (e.g., Vertex AI Search/Data Stores, DialogFlow where applicable), optimizing relevance, grounding, and user experience.
- Own production-grade engineering across the lifecycle: architecture, implementation (Python), testing, code reviews, and operational readiness (monitoring, runbooks, handover).
- Establish evaluation and quality gates for LLM features (e.g., RAGAS, golden datasets, regression suites) and drive continuous improvement based on metrics and feedback.
- Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders across technology, product, operations and risk to align scope, manage dependencies, and ensure delivery meets governance, security and regulatory expectations.
Skills
- Strong hands-on experience with Google Cloud GenAI: Vertex AI and Google ADK (agent orchestration, tool-calling, safety patterns).
- Proven production experience with RAG systems (retrieval tuning, embeddings, chunking, grounding/citations) and conversational applications (chatbots/agents).
- Excellent software engineering in Python (primary) plus working TypeScript/JavaScript; API design, testing, performance and maintainability.
- Infrastructure-as-Code and delivery automation: Terraform on GCP and CI/CD with GitHub Actions; operational excellence mindset.
- Security and compliance awareness for regulated environments (PII handling, auditability, access control, prompt-injection/data-leakage mitigations).
Proven ability to leverage AI tools to enhance productivity, optimise workflows to solve business problems, while applying critical judgment to ensure responsible and ethical use of data and AI outputs.

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?
- What are the limits of Vertex AI that you've run into, and how did you work around them?
Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: RAG, AI agents, and Vertex AI. 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.
