Demand for AI Engineer roles
New AI Engineer postings at the employers we follow are up 134% over the last 6 weeks compared with the 6 before.
Each bar is one week of new postings. The darkest bars are the last 6 weeks.
Counted from the hiring pages we’ve followed for at least five weeks, so employers we add don’t look like growth. Updated weekly.
About the role
We file this job under AI Engineer, by the work the posting describes.
AI engineers build products on top of AI models that already exist, most often large language models: they connect a model to a company's data and tools and ship the assistants, agents and search features people use.
Postings ask for strong Python or TypeScript, experience with model APIs, retrieval and agent frameworks, and ways to test whether the model's answers are good enough.
An ML engineer trains and serves models; an AI engineer usually starts from a model someone else trained and builds the product around it, though titles often mix the two.
Job description
- Location: Barcelona, Spain
About the Job
Sanofi's Global eCommerce organization is building the digital infrastructure that connects healthcare professionals, institutions, and patients to our life-changing medicines. As Lead, AI & Data Enablement, you'll stand up and lead a new, strategically critical capability: making our entire eCommerce, Tender Management, and B2B technology ecosystem AI-ready and data-enabled.
This is a high-impact technical leadership role — not a people management position. You'll coordinate a flexible team of external freelance engineers and specialists, bringing in the right skillsets — data engineering, ML engineering, prompt engineering, analytics engineering, data science — for the right projects at the right time. You'll partner closely with Sanofi's central AI & Data teams, taking guidance on enterprise standards while owning execution within the eCommerce domain.

We are a global biopharmaceutical company focused on human health, committed to chasing the miracles of science to improve people's lives. Our team, across some 100 countries, is dedicated to transforming the practice of medicine by working to turn the impossible into the possible. We provide potentially life-changing treatment options and life-saving vaccine protection to millions of people globally, while putting sustainability and social responsibility at the center of our ambitions.
At Sanofi, we believe our people are our greatest strength, and we are committed to creating an inclusive environment where diverse perspectives drive innovation. Our values — Aim Higher, Act for Patients, Be Bold, and Lead Together — guide everything we do.
Main responsibilities
- Define and execute the AI & data enablement strategy — assess current data infrastructure and AI readiness, identify gaps, and build a multi-quarter roadmap balancing quick wins with foundational investments and product goals & features
- Source, onboard, and direct external freelance engineers and contractors, matching the right skillsets to the right projects and ensuring quality and delivery
- Design and implement scalable ETL/ELT pipelines, data warehousing, and observability frameworks, establishing data quality and governance practices with central Data teams
- Build and deploy production-grade AI/ML capabilities, including LLM-based tools, RAG architectures, prompt engineering pipelines, and ML models for analytics and personalization
- Create self-service dashboards and analytics that empower Product, Commercial, and Engineering stakeholders to make data-driven decisions
- Partner with Sanofi's central AI & Data teams to align on enterprise standards and tooling, contributing eCommerce use cases back to the enterprise roadmap
- Evangelize AI and data literacy across the organization through workshops, documentation, and mentoring
- Stay ahead of emerging AI/ML techniques, running proofs-of-concept and bringing forward recommendations to keep Sanofi's platforms at the leading edge
About you
- Experience: 7+ years in data engineering, ML engineering, analytics engineering, or AI/ML technical leadership, with a track record of building data and AI systems from the ground up in complex, multi-stakeholder environments
- Leadership style: Hands-on experience coordinating external contractors or consulting teams — scoping work, managing delivery, and ensuring quality without direct reports
- Technical skills: Strong depth across the full data and AI stack — ETL/ELT pipelines, data warehousing, analytics, ML model development and deployment, and LLM/prompt engineering
- Collaboration: Experience working in a matrixed organization, partnering effectively with centralized platform or enablement teams
- Bonus: Background in eCommerce, B2B platforms, or enterprise software is a strong plus
Why choose us?
- Shape a brand-new capability — build this function from scratch and define how AI and data power Sanofi's global eCommerce ecosystem
- Broad technical ownership — work across the full stack, from pipelines to production AI systems, with real autonomy
- Global impact at scale — your work directly supports how patients and healthcare professionals access life-changing medicines
- Cutting-edge technology — hands-on with LLMs, RAG, and modern data infrastructure on a platform under active transformation
