ppFrontier Agentic AI Engineer — Santander AI Lab /p pCountry: Spain /p h3IT STARTS HERE /h3 pSantander ( is evolving from ba global, high-impact brand /b into a btechnology-driven organization /b , and our people are at the heart of this journey. bTogether /b , we are driving a bcustomer-centric transformation /b that values bold bthinking, innovation /b , and the bcourage to challenge /b what’s possible. /p pThis is more than a strategic shift. It’s a chance for driven professionals to grow, learn, and make a real difference. /p pOur mission is to contribute to help more people and businesses prosper. We embrace a strong risk culture and all our professionals at all levels are expected to take a proactive and responsible approach toward risk management. /p pOur bChief Data Artificial Intelligence Officer (CDAIO) /b division is building a world-class AI Data team to make a difference in the lives of over 170 million people worldwide, through one of the largest banks in the world. /p pWe are undergoing one of the biggest transformations in our history and technology is at the heart of our strategy. Join our team to play a part in one of the most important technological projects for the financial sector in the world. /p h3THE DIFFERENCE YOU MAKE /h3 pbSantander AI Lab (CDAIO) /b is looking for an bFrontier Agentic AI Engineer /b based out of bMadrid, Spain. /b /p pThe AI Lab is the applied innovation engine of one of the world’s largest banks. We detect emerging opportunities, build working prototypes, validate them with real data, and transfer them to scale. We work with Anthropic, Sakana AI, AWS, ICMAT, CMU, INRIA and other world-class partners. Our published research (arXiv: , arXiv: ) sets the formal foundation for everything we build. /p pWe’re bshaping the way we work /b through innovation, cutting-edge technology, collaboration and the freedom to explore new ideas. To succeed in this role, you will be responsible for: /p ul liDesigning, building and deploying production-grade agentic AI systems — multi-agent orchestration with real memory, planning, tool use and error recovery. Not demos. Systems that work. /li liDeveloping and fine-tuning small and medium language models (SLMs) for regulated banking use cases, including custom evaluation frameworks and domain-specific benchmarks. /li liArchitecting and implementing MCP servers, A2A protocols, and federated API layers that allow AI agents to operate across the group’s multi-country infrastructure. /li liPrototyping new ideas in two-week sprints: hypothesis, architecture, code, functional demo, one-pager. This is the lab’s operating rhythm — you need to thrive in it. /li liCollaborating with researchers, data scientists and business stakeholders to translate complex technical concepts into tangible bank value — Alchemy-style transformations of legacy assets. /li liKeeping the lab at the frontier: monitoring emerging research, evaluating new tools (Harness Engineering, Kiro, Windsurf, Devin), and integrating them into the lab’s workflow when they add real value. /li liProducing clean, tested, observable code that can be handed off to the AI Science team for production scaling. You own your code end-to-end. /li /ul h3WHAT YOU’LL BRING /h3 pOur people are our greatest strength. Every individual contributes unique perspectives that make us stronger as a team and as an organization. We’re benabling teams to go beyond /b by valuing who they are and empowering what they bring. /p pThe following requirements represent the knowledge, skills, and abilities essential for success in this role. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions. /p h3Professional Experience /h3 ul li4–8 years of software engineering or AI engineering experience, with at least 2 years building and maintaining LLM-powered systems in production environments — not in notebooks. (Required) /li liDemonstrated hands‑on experience designing and deploying multi‑agent AI systems with real‑world complexity: memory management, stateful orchestration, tool use, multi‑step planning, and graceful failure recovery. (Required) /li liExperience fine‑tuning or adapting language models (SFT, LoRA, RLHF) for domain‑specific tasks, including dataset curation and evaluation design. (Required) /li liTrack record of delivering complete systems independently within tight timelines — from architecture decision to production‑ready code. Portfolio of real systems, not just demos. (Required) /li liExperience building and consuming REST APIs and integrating AI systems with enterprise data sources, cloud services and third‑party platforms. (Required) /li liPrior experience in banking, fintech, or other regulated industries. (Preferred) /li liExposure to Harness Engineering methodologies: spec‑driven development, AI‑assisted software creation at scale. (Preferred) /li /ul h3Education /h3 ul liBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or equivalent technical field. (Required) /li liMaster’s degree or equivalent advanced qualification in AI, Machine Learning or related discipline. (Preferred) /li /ul h3Languages /h3 ul liEnglish: professional working proficiency — all technical documentation, papers and partner communications are in English. (Required) /li liSpanish: professional working proficiency — day‑to‑day team communication and stakeholder collaboration. (Required) /li /ul h3Hard Skills /h3 ul liPython: advanced proficiency. Clean, tested, production‑grade code. You know the difference between a script and a system. (Required) /li liAgentic AI frameworks: LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, or Semantic Kernel. You have designed multi‑agent workflows with these tools, not just run their tutorials. (Required) /li liLLM APIs and model ecosystems: Anthropic Claude API, OpenAI, open‑source models (Llama, Mistral). You understand cost, latency and quality trade‑offs. (Required) /li liCloud infrastructure: AWS (Bedrock, Lambda, SageMaker, S3). Comfortable deploying and monitoring AI systems in cloud environments. (Required) /li liModel evaluation and observability: you design evals, not just run them. Experience with LLM‑as‑judge, RAGAS, Promptfoo, Langfuse or equivalent. (Required) /li liAPI development: FastAPI or equivalent. You can build a production‑ready API around an AI system. (Required)DevOps basics: Docker, Git, CI/CD pipelines. Your code ships, not just runs locally. (Required) /li liMCP (Model Context Protocol) server design and implementation. (Preferred) /li liSLM fine‑tuning pipelines: vLLM, Ollama, Unsloth or equivalent for efficient domain adaptation. (Preferred) /li liKnowledge graphs or GraphRAG for structured knowledge retrieval in complex domains. (Preferred) /li liA2A protocol, x402 or AP2 for agentic payments or agent‑to‑agent communication. (Preferred) /li liKubernetes, Terraform or equivalent for production‑scale deployment. (Preferred) /li /ul h3Soft Skills /h3 ul liRadical autonomy: you arrive on Monday with your own priorities. You don’t wait to be told what to build — you propose it. /li liBuilder’s mindset: when you encounter an interesting idea, your first instinct is to build a proof of concept, not write a slide about it. /li liSpeed with judgment: you can deliver a functional demo in two weeks and know when a prototype is ready to transfer versus when it needs more work. /li liFrontier awareness: you read papers the week they drop. You have opinions about what Anthropic, Sakana AI and AWS are building. You learn by doing, not by watching courses. /li liCommunication across roles: you can explain a complex agentic architecture to a business stakeholder and write a technical one-pager for the bank’s leadership team. Both matter here. /li liCollaborative rigor: you give and receive direct technical feedback. You document your decisions not because someone told you to, but because future you — and your teammates — will need it. /li /ul h3WE VALUE YOUR IMPACT /h3 pbYour contribution matters /b , and it’s recognized. You can expect a fair, competitive reward package that reflects bthe impact you create /b and the value you deliver. But we know rewards go beyond numbers. /p pWe’re benabling our teams to go beyond /b through global opportunities and broad career paths. /p ul libFlexibility that works. /b Enjoy a bhybrid working model /b —some days remote, some days onsite with your team—along with flexible hours. /li libLearning for life. /b /li /ul /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
