Senior Lead AI Engineer | Hong Kong | Permanent | 1-1.7M

A top-tier global consultancy is growing its AI engineering team in Hong Kong. You’ll lead engineers, write critical components yourself and take AI products from the first client conversation through to production. The role offers a dedicated engineering career track and a competitive base salary plus bonus.

What you’ll own

• Work directly with regional clients on problems such as how a bank can use AI to review complex documents while keeping its decisions traceable.

• Design and build applications that connect language models, retrieval and AI agents to the APIs and data clients already rely on.

• Set the standard for release. You’ll decide how the team tests accuracy, protects sensitive data and monitors performance once people are using the product.

• Guide engineers through design and code reviews, mentor technical talent and shape engineering practices across projects.

What you’ll bring

You’ve built and shipped enterprise software, led technical delivery and stayed hands-on. You’re strong in Python, have practical experience with Java, .NET or TypeScript/Node.js, and know at least one of AWS, Azure or GCP in depth. You can talk through an AI application you helped build, the decisions you owned and how you knew it worked.

The team is hiring at Engineering Manager through Principal level, depending on the scope of work you’ve led.
