AI Engineer
Pubblicato il 01-09-2026 - Train in Italia
About the Role
We're looking for a technical lead to drive our AI initiatives across clinical and pharmaceutical projects. This is a broad, high-impact role in a small, fast-moving company: you'll own projects end-to-end — from requirements gathering with the client through to a production-ready product — while also contributing to our research work on EU-funded projects.
The workload isn't evenly distributed: roughly half your time will be spent on pharma client projects, with the rest organized in variable blocks depending on the period — weeks focused on development and deployment, weeks dedicated to European research projects, and weeks spent on state-of-the-art research. We're looking for someone comfortable switching context frequently and working with a good degree of autonomy, as there is currently no other internal technical lead to rely on.
What You'll Do
Pharma Client Projects (~50% of your time)
Lead requirements and data analysis with clients, developing a solid understanding of the underlying business case
Design technical solutions and confidently present and defend them to non-technical stakeholders
Engage directly with a diverse range of stakeholders: physicians, engineers, medical affairs, and legal teams
Own the technical relationship throughout the project lifecycle, communicating fluently in both Italian and English depending on the client
Manage and coordinate client-facing project work, balancing scope, timelines, and stakeholder expectations
Development & Production
Build proof-of-concepts and prototypes for AI applications
Take solutions from prototype to production: infrastructure, deployment, and ongoing maintenance of live systems
Coordinate and manage external developers and partner companies contributing to application development
Collaborate closely with researchers at Humanitas — a genuine technical partnership, not just a client relationship
European Research Projects
