Deutsche Telekom TSI Hungary Kft.

Your Task

We are looking for a Senior AI Platform Engineer to build AI-powered automation for complex cloud engineering environments. You will combine your platform engineering, software development and cloud expertise with modern Generative AI technologies to automate parts of the software development lifecycle (SDLC). Your work will focus on building reusable AI-assisted workflows that help engineering teams understand large codebases, discover service dependencies, diagnose CI/CD failures, analyze cloud services and generate reliable technical documentation. This is not a traditional data science or machine learning role, but rather an engineering position that applies LLMs, RAG and AI agents to real engineering problems. You will work closely with cloud, platform and software engineers within the T Cloud Public / Meridian engineering environment.

Responsibilities

• Design and build AI-powered engineering workflows
• Analyze large Git repositories and identify service boundaries and dependencies
• Build AI agents that interact with source code, Git platforms, CI/CD systems and engineering tools
• Diagnose build and deployment failures using source code, configuration and pipeline logs
• Create RAG-based solutions for searching and understanding large codebases and technical documentation
• Automate the generation of architecture and engineering documentation
• Connect LLMs to engineering systems through APIs and tool calling
• Build controlled agentic workflows with validation, retries, confidence checks and human approval steps
• Evaluate different LLMs and approaches for software engineering use cases
• Turn successful prototypes into reusable, maintainable and production-ready engineering solutions

Your Profile

We are looking for a Senior AI Platform Engineer with extensive platform engineering and cloud expertise, strong programming skills, and practical experience applying Generative AI technologies to real engineering problems. The ideal candidate combines deep understanding of modern software platforms with hands-on LLM and AI agent implementation experience.

Must Have Skills

• Several years of professional experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, Cloud Engineering or software engineering in cloud-native environments
• Strong programming and automation skills, preferably in Python
• Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, containers and cloud-native architectures
• Good understanding of Git-based development workflows and CI/CD systems such as GitLab CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions or similar
• Experience integrating systems through REST APIs, SDKs and automation
• Strong understanding of how modern distributed applications and cloud services are built, deployed and operated
• Hands-on experience building or integrating Generative AI / LLM-based applications
• Practical experience applying AI to engineering problems

Nice to Have Skills

• Experience with RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and semantic/vector search
• Experience with LLM tool calling and integration with external systems
• Experience with AI agents and multi-step agentic workflows
• Experience with agent frameworks such as LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, Semantic Kernel, OpenAI Agents SDK or comparable technologies
• Experience with LLM evaluation, observability and quality validation
• Experience with AI-assisted source-code analysis or developer tooling
• Experience with OpenStack or other large-scale cloud platforms
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code such as Terraform or Ansible
• Experience with GitOps and platform engineering practices
• Experience with vector databases such as pgvector, Qdrant, Weaviate, Milvus or similar
• Experience with LlamaIndex or comparable retrieval/indexing technologies
• Experience with developer productivity or internal developer platform tooling
• Experience working with large or unfamiliar software repositories
• Experience with software architecture analysis and service decomposition
• Experience with technical due diligence, software transition or engineering handover projects
• Experience operating software in security- or sovereignty-sensitive environments
