Are you excited about defining the technical vision behind cutting-edge Generative AI solutions? Do you want to build AI that is not only innovative, but reusable and scalable across an entire organization? Join the AI Center of Excellence at Nationale Nederlanden (NN)—where we accelerate AI adoption, develop high-impact reusable assets, and drive innovation across business domains.

As a AI Engineering Lead you’ll be at the heart of this transformation. You will shape the architecture, quality, and engineering standards of AI components published in the NN AI asset marketplace—enabling teams across NN to build smarter, faster.

Your impact:

As a AI Engineering Lead you define the technical direction and set the bar for engineering excellence. From architecture to implementation, you ensure our AI assets are scalable, secure, and built to last. You’ll work closely with product managers, (Gen)AI engineers, and stakeholders across the business to translate real-world needs into robust, reusable AI solutions.

What you are going to do

• Define and continuously improve engineering standards for reusable Generative AI components
• Lead the technical architecture of the NN AI asset marketplace
• Ensure high-quality delivery through code reviews, best practices, and clear documentation
• Guide teams in building scalable, secure, and production-ready AI solutions
