PURPOSE OF ROLE
The AI Application Development Engineer is responsible for building and supporting the AI-assisted applications, modules and skills the Foundry delivers into Brennan and customer environments. The role exists to turn approved ideas into working software quickly and repeatedly, at a consistent standard.
  
This role focuses on spec-driven development: taking an approved specification through AI-assisted build, peer review, testing and release, and making the result reusable rather than one-off. The Engineer works collaboratively with the Foundry core team, service line representatives, business domains and Architecture to translate business requirements into scalable, secure and maintainable applications.
  
ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES

• Designing, developing, and maintaining AI-assisted applications, Beacon modules, and Cowork skills against approved specifications.
• Building reusable components, patterns, and templates so capability is built once and consumed across multiple service lines.
• Developing and maintaining integrations with REST APIs, Swagger/OpenAPI contracts, Microsoft 365 and MCP connectors, CMDBs, and ITSM platforms.
• Working within the Foundry innovation pipeline — submission, AI review, concept approval, spec approval, build, sprint board — and taking AI-generated build output through to production standard.
• Supporting containerised deployment and Infrastructure-as-Code pipelines using tools such as Docker.
• Contributing to CI/CD pipelines, version control processes, and automated testing practices.
• Assisting in the development of evaluation harnesses, prompt and model regression testing, and output quality measurement for AI features.
• Developing tooling to support telemetry, usage reporting, and outcome measurement for capability once it has shipped.
• Applying the Foundry’s architectural rules and solution patterns, including data classification, data sovereignty, and human-in-the-loop requirements.
• Collaborating with Leaders, Engineers, and service line teams to identify manual processes suitable for AI-assisted automation.
• Participating in code reviews and adhering to established coding standards and governance frameworks.
• Documenting solutions, technical designs, specifications, and operational procedures.
• Assisting in troubleshooting and resolving application defects and incidents through to handover.
• Supporting the enablement of SPECIal Coders and service line builders through pairing, review, and worked examples.
• Contributing to continuous improvement initiatives within the Foundry’s engineering and enablement domains.

 
KEY COMPETENCIES 

• Hands-on experience developing application, integration, or automation solutions.
• Experience building web applications with a framework such as Django, Flask, or similar, backed by a relational database.
• Experience working with REST APIs and integrating with external systems.
• Experience using AI coding assistants and agent tooling as part of day-to-day development.
• Familiarity with LLM application concepts such as prompting, retrieval-augmented generation, agents, or MCP — this can be developed on the job.
• Familiarity with Git and version control workflows.
• Understanding of CI/CD pipelines and automated testing principles.
• Exposure to cloud platforms, preferably Azure, and to containerised deployment.
• Exposure to Linux environments and scripting (Bash or similar).
• Ability to work from a written specification, and to raise gaps rather than assume them.
• Ability to troubleshoot and debug application, integration, and pipeline issues.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Good communication skills with the ability to work collaboratively across technical and non-technical teams.
• Attention to detail with a focus on reliability, security, and maintainability.
• Ability to work independently while contributing effectively within a team environment.
