AI Platform Engineer - AI Gateway

About MAAP

The My Advanced Analytics Platform (MAAP) team enables AI development across ABN AMRO through three complementary streams:

• AI Infrastructure – foundational AI services, model hosting, and AI Gateway capabilities (scope of this vacancy)
• Capabilities – reusable AI building blocks, developer journeys, standards, governance, and platform guidance
• Agents – delivery and validation of agentic AI solutions in business domains

Together, these streams provide an end-to-end AI enablement model that allows teams across the bank to build AI solutions safely, efficiently, at scale, and in compliance with enterprise architecture standards.

Your Role
