ABOUT LHV
We're building a bank the world actually needs – modern, sharp and genuinely human. We started in Estonia, growing through grit and high standards. Now we're taking on the UK and Europe. The next chapter is about doing the most ambitious work we've ever done, and changing how people experience money.
We run on three values: No Bullshit, Agile, and Never Satisfied. They're not wall art. They're how we make decisions, push each other and show up every day.
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
We don't do technology just for the sake of it but to make life better for our clients and our team.
As a Forward Deployed AI Engineer, you will operate like an internal consultant and builder rolled into one, embedded directly within our business units. You'll have the autonomy to pinpoint inefficiencies and drive the development of solutions, whether you're building from scratch or integrating with current platforms. It’s a hands-on, high-impact role where your initiative directly shapes how LHV operates, helping us stay fast, lean, and uniquely innovative.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Partner directly with business units to understand their daily work and find practical ways to solve their bottlenecks
Translate business needs into simple, secure, and automated workflows
Deploy solutions safely within our infrastructure, making sure they comply with our security and data standards
Collaborate with data owners to connect your tools smoothly with our existing databases and systems
Help develop, monitor, and scale our central internal technology platform to keep it stable and secure
Guide and train business team members on how to safely use our internal tools
Track the performance and business impact of the solutions you build
Document your work clearly and ensure every solution has a designated owner and a smooth support path
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Solid experience in software engineering, with a focus on writing clean, readable, and maintainable code
Hands-on experience building custom AI solutions, working with APIs, or setting up open-source interfaces
A realistic, practical approach to technology, using AI as a tool to solve real business problems rather than chasing the hype
Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to take a vague idea, ask the right questions, and define clear metrics
Ability to handle multiple tasks and switch contexts smoothly
Great communication and critical thinking skills
Familiarity with AWS or similar environments is a plus
Proficiency in Estonian language is preferred
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT HERE
Build something that lasts long after you've moved on
Work with ambitious colleagues who value innovation and move fast
Enjoy the freedom to experiment and the ownership to build real impact
Grow professionally and personally through meaningful opportunities
THE FUTURE WE'RE BUILDING
Banking has been ugly, slow and impersonal for too long. We're fixing that with design that respects people's intelligence and technology that actually works for them.
If that sounds like the kind of problem worth working on, let's talk.
