Job description

Technical Lead

We’re looking for a hands‑on Technical Lead to build and lead our Enterprise Grade AI Platform. You’ll drive execution of our conversational AI, Generative and agentic AI roadmap, managing a team of talented engineers while remaining hands‑on yourself. This role requires both exceptional leadership skills and the ability to roll up your sleeves and solve complex technical problems.

Your Impact

  • Lead, mentor, and grow a team of 5-8 AI engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence, innovation, and delivery
  • Drive end‑to‑end execution of conversational AI features that enable users to interact with Anaplan models through natural language
  • Oversee the development of agentic AI systems that can autonomously analyse data, generate insights, and execute planning workflows
  • Own the team's delivery roadmap, working closely with product management to prioritise features and manage technical trade‑offs
  • Establish engineering best practices for AI development, including testing strategies, evaluation frameworks, and deployment patterns
  • Lead sprint planning, technical design reviews, and retrospectives to ensure consistent delivery velocity and quality
  • Collaborate with AI Solutions Architects to translate architectural vision into executable engineering plans
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for AI applications, including automated testing and prompt regression suites
  • Partner with platform teams to ensure AI features integrate seamlessly with Anaplan's core infrastructure
  • Communicate progress, risks, and technical decisions to senior leadership and cross‑functional stakeholders

Your Skills

  • Software engineering experience while leading engineering teams
  • Strong hands‑on experience building and deploying AI applications in production
  • Deep knowledge of LLM APIs, prompt engineering, and conversational AI patterns
  • Experience with agentic frameworks and autonomous agent architectures
  • Proficiency in Python and modern software development practices (testing, code review, CI/CD)
  • Proven track record of delivering complex technical projects on time with high quality
  • Strong project management skills with experience using Agile/Scrum methodologies
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities
  • Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and build cohesive, productive teams
  • Experience leading teams in fast‑growing startups or enterprise software companies
  • Knowledge of financial planning, analytics, or business intelligence domains
  • Experience with RAG systems, vector databases, and semantic search
  • Familiarity with model fine‑tuning, evaluation, and continuous improvement workflows
  • Background in distributed systems, microservices, or cloud‑native architectures

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB)

We believe attracting and retaining the best talent and fostering an inclusive culture strengthens our business. DEIB improves our workforce, enhances trust with our partners and customers, and drives business success. Build your career in a place where diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging aren’t just words on paper – this is what drives our innovation, it’s how we connect, and it contributes to what makes us a market leader. We believe in a hiring and working environment where all people are respected and valued, regardless of gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, age, neurodiversity, disability status, citizenship, or any other aspect which makes people unique. We hire you for who you are, and we want you to bring your authentic self to work every day!

We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the job application or interview process, perform essential job functions, and receive equitable benefits and all privileges of employment. Please contact us to request accommodation.
