We are committed to hiring the best, most talented people and empowering them to thrive, grow meaningful careers and to find a place where they belong. Whether you’ve got deep experience in commercial real estate, skilled trades or technology, or you’re looking to apply your relevant experience to a new industry, join our team as we help shape a brighter way forward.\nForward Deployed AI Engineer\nJLL | Full-Time\nAbout the Role\nJLL is rolling out AI agents directly into the business: automating workflows, supporting decision-making, and integrating with the systems that run them.\nYou will own your assigned business area as a one-person engineering team. The Center of Excellence in our central AI team gives you the methodology, the platform, and the patterns; the business gives you the problems, the SMEs, and the appetite for change. Your job is to turn that into shipped agents and MCP integrations, then hand mature work off to platform and operations as it stabilizes.\nWe expect engineers at this level to operate with AI tools as a primary part of their workflow. Your leverage comes from the hooks, skills, workflows, and automations you install to ship safely to production. The leverage in this role is AI, not headcount.\nWhat You'll Do\nBuild and ship agents for the business, in close partnership with business SMEs and operators.\nStand up MCP servers and connectors: pre-production first, then through CDR into production.\nBootstrap skills, integrations, and evals on top of JLL's AI platform (LLM gateway, shared RAG services, MCP toolchain).\nRun workshops with business teams, teach them to use Claude Code, and translate their workflows into agent skills.\nHand mature systems off to platform and operations teams once they outgrow the bootstrap phase.\nFeed patterns, anti-patterns, and platform gaps back into the Center of Excellence so the next FDE moves faster.\nMust Have Experience\nShipped production agents using Claude Agent SDK, MCP, or an equivalent stack.\nProduction code in at least one of Python, Node, or .NET, with comfort moving across the others.\nWorked with diverse data stores: relational, NoSQL, object/blob, vector, and document.\nOperated end-to-end as a one-person team: design, ship, support, hand off.\nTraits\nStrong written and verbal communication; comfortable in the room with non-engineers.\nPragmatic judgment on when to ship, when to harden, and when to hand off.\nSystems thinking with a focus on failure modes; AI writes most of the code, you own it.\nComfort with tasking and ability to run multiple agents in parallel as part of daily workflow.\nWhy This Role\nJLL. A Fortune 200 company and a global leader in commercial real estate, with the stability of a $20B+ business and the resources to invest seriously in AI.\nThe team. You sit at the seam of the business, product, and engineering, with a direct line into JLL's central AI platform via the Center of Excellence. The work is visible from business leadership on down.\n The role. The highest-leverage seat in the company: you ship things real users feel within weeks, not quarters, and the systems you bootstrap become the agents thousands of JLL employees rely on every day.\nIf this job description resonates with you, we encourage you to apply, even if you don’t meet all the requirements.
