AI/Cloud Platform Engineer

JOB TITLE: AI/CLOUD PLATFORM ENGINEER
LOCATION: SCHAERBEEK, BELGIUM
LANGUAGES: ENGLISH, FRENCH OR DUTCH IS A BIG PLUS
WORK MODE: HYBRID (1 TO 2 DAYS ONSITE PER WEEK)
DURATION: ASAP - END OF 2026 (RENEWABLE)

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE OF THE MISSION
The contract aims to technically strengthen the AI Platform Team in the realization, industrialization and operational support of a standardized, secure, scalable and cost-efficient enterprise AI platform.
The AI Platform Engineer is responsible for the hands-on implementation of reusable platform services for generative AI, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and agentic AI. The contractor translates the defined architecture, standards and governance requirements into automated platform components that can be used by multiple development and platform teams.
The assignment does not include ownership over business-specific use cases or business KPIs. The focus is on generic platform capabilities, self-service, technical quality assurance and the controlled transition from proof of concept to production.
