Leading Global Financial Firm | AI Product Engineer & Innovation Researcher | Kraków, Poland | Hybrid (3 days onsite)

We're building something new: a dedicated AI innovation lab in the heart of Kraków's tech hub. Our mission? To solve the thorniest challenges in modern finance through cutting-edge technologies.

This isn't just another tech role—you'll be a founding member of our local innovation studio, with the autonomy to shape our direction and the backing of a global financial leader.

We have two open positions:

1) AI Product Engineer: You will architect and prototype AI solutions that could reshape our industry. You will work directly with subject-matter experts, analysts, and other engineers to identify opportunities and bring solutions to life.

Using service design and design thinking methods, you'll identify unexplored opportunities in financial services. You'll build business cases that balance innovation with viability, supported by deep market analysis and financial modeling.

What we're looking for: - Innovators who can see beyond current fintech trends

- Problem-solvers who thrive in ambiguity

- Collaborators who can bridge the gap between technology and business

- Experience with AI/ML technologies and their practical applications
