Our Opportunity

Work Location: Perth - Fortescue's Perth office is located on the traditional lands of the Whadjuk Noongar people.

Roster: Monday to Friday.

As an AI Engineer within Fortescue’s Data & AI Platform team, you will help design, build and operate secure, scalable AI solutions and platform capabilities across machine learning, generative AI, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and agentic workflows.

You will translate business problems into production-ready solutions, develop reusable services and integrations, and support end-to-end MLOps and LLMOps. Working closely with data scientists, engineers, architects, cyber security, product and operational teams, you will balance delivery speed with reliability, governance, cost and measurable business value.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and maintain reusable AI components, APIs, microservices, model-serving capabilities and orchestration patterns.
Implement machine learning, generative AI and RAG solutions using architectures appropriate to the business need.
Build capabilities for automated testing, deployment, evaluation, monitoring, cost management and lifecycle management across MLOps and LLMOps.
Design and implement bounded agentic workflows using approved enterprise data, tools and APIs.
Apply appropriate patterns for tool calling, context and state management, orchestration, human approval, guardrails and safe fallback behaviour.
Evaluate and monitor AI and agent workflows for task success, reliability, safety, latency, cost and operational value.
Integrate AI services and agents into enterprise business workflows in alignment with architecture, cyber security, data governance and responsible AI requirements.
Build secure integrations using appropriate identity, authorisation, secrets management, least-privilege access and auditability controls.
Prototype and experiment to validate technical feasibility, user value and operational impact before scaling solutions.
Monitor and troubleshoot production AI services, support incident resolution, assess emerging technologies and contribute reusable patterns and operational procedures.

Qualifications and Experience

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Minimum 2+ years’ experience designing, developing and delivering AI/ML or cloud-native software systems, including solutions from prototype through to production.
Proficiency in Python, including clean code, testing, API development, debugging and software design fundamentals.
Practical understanding of machine learning and LLM concepts, model APIs, prompting, structured outputs, embeddings, vector search and RAG.
Practical experience or strong applied understanding of agentic systems, including tool/function calling, workflow orchestration, context or state management, guardrails and human-in-the-loop controls.
Experience evaluating AI quality and reliability, monitoring production behaviour, tracing model and tool activity, and managing latency, configuration and cost trade-offs.
Working knowledge of AWS or Azure, containers, Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, CI/CD, automated testing and observability practices.
Experience with SQL, data pipelines, object storage, REST APIs, event-driven or microservices architectures and governed enterprise data integration.
Understanding of authentication, authorisation, secrets management, data privacy, secure tool use, AI risk controls and responsible deployment practices.
Strong analytical, systems-thinking, problem-solving and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across disciplines and communicate technical options, risks, costs and outcomes clearly.
