ICEYE is the world leader in sovereign intelligence from space, operating the world's largest and most advanced SAR (synthetic aperture radar) satellite constellation. As a Senior AI Engineer, you'll build agentic AI tooling that transforms how the Operations team works, starting with an internal agent that automatically investigates production issues and expanding to other domains.
You'll own the team's internal agentic AI system end-to-end, spanning issue analysis, early detection, and prevention to improve customer-perceived system quality. Your responsibilities include identifying and prioritizing where agentic workflows can meaningfully improve Operations work beyond the current flagship agent, building the infrastructure and tooling needed for reliable production operation, and bringing a forward-looking, hands-on view of what AI agents can realistically deliver today and in the next 6-12 months.
This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, DevOps, and MLOps. You'll build the infrastructure this tooling needs, partner directly with engineering teams on what to build next, and prepare for a future move toward locally-hosted models and on-prem deployments. You'll establish operational discipline through AIOps, data pipelines, and monitoring.
You should have a versatile, hands-on software engineering background comfortable across different backend languages and technologies. You need a track record of building and owning an agentic AI system or comparable AI-driven tool end-to-end. A solid DevOps foundation is essential: infrastructure, deployment pipelines, and operating tooling in production. Strong grounding in observability and production debugging with hands-on experience using metrics, logs, and traces (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry) is required. You should have experience validating AI-generated output quality and knowing when it can be trusted. Experience in MLOps or data engineering, ideally integrating AI systems with data pipelines and infrastructure, is valued.
The role reports to the Engineering Lead (Operations) and is permanent, hybrid (3 days per week in office in Espoo). ICEYE is a global scale-up with over 1000 employees across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, combining speed and ambition with real ownership opportunities from day one.
