As a Junior AI Engineer, you will combine data analysis, machine learning and modern AI engineering to generate reliable business insights and build scalable applications. You will work with business and domain experts to understand their needs, explore and validate data, communicate clear recommendations, and help translate promising ideas into production-ready solutions.\nThe role has three complementary pillars: Data Analysis & Business Insights, Machine Learning & Generative AI, and Software & Cloud Engineering. You will receive guidance while progressively taking ownership of analytical, development, testing, deployment and documentation activities.\n1. Data Analysis & Business Insights\nUse SQL and Python to explore, combine, clean, filter and validate data and answer business questions in a reliable, repeatable way.\nPerform exploratory data analysis to identify patterns, trends, correlations, anomalies and data-quality issues.\nTranslate business questions into structured analytical approaches, hypotheses and measurable outcomes.\nApply statistical methods and effective visualizations to validate findings and communicate them clearly.\nIndependently investigate unfamiliar datasets, ask the right questions and select an appropriate analytical or machine-learning approach.\nExplain evidence, model drivers, reliability, assumptions, limitations and potential bias to technical and non-technical stakeholders.\nProduce concise analytical notes that document conclusions, limitations and actionable recommendations.\nWork closely with domain experts to gather context, respectfully challenge assumptions, validate conclusions and document decisions.\n2. Machine Learning & Generative AI\nBuild, test and explain practical machine-learning solutions, including regression, classification, clustering and similarity analysis.\nUse anomaly-detection and forecasting techniques to identify unusual patterns and estimate future outcomes.\nContribute to Generative AI and LLM-based applications, including prompting, Retrieval-Augmented Generation solutions and basic agentic workflows.\nAssess the quality and suitability of AI outputs using appropriate evaluation methods and business criteria.\nPrototype and validate AI solutions with business stakeholders before further industrialization.\n3. Software & Cloud Engineering\nDevelop maintainable Python components and contribute to reliable AI applications.\nContribute to deploying, monitoring and maintaining AI solutions in cloud environments, preferably Microsoft Azure.\nApply software-engineering, DevOps and MLOps practices, including Git, testing, CI/CD and reproducible experimentation.\nCollaborate with AI engineers, data scientists, data engineers and business experts throughout the solution lifecycle.\nCreate clear technical documentation and contribute to team knowledge sharing and continuous improvement.\nYour profile:\nMaster's degree in Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.\nUp to 2 years of relevant professional experience. Internships, academic projects and personal AI or data projects are valued.\nGood foundation in Python and common data-analysis or machine-learning libraries such as pandas and scikit-learn.\nWorking knowledge of SQL and experience analysing structured datasets.\nUnderstanding of statistics, data validation, machine learning and effective data visualization.\nStrong interest in Generative AI, LLMs, RAG and modern AI architectures.\nAbility to connect analytical findings to business questions and communicate recommendations to technical and non-technical audiences.\nFluent in English. French and/or Dutch is a strong asset.\nTechnologies you may work with\nPython, SQL, pandas, scikit-learn and data-visualization libraries.\nLLM frameworks such as LangChain or LlamaIndex, and agentic frameworks such as LangGraph, AutoGen or CrewAI.\nMicrosoft Azure, Azure AI Search, vector databases, graph databases and knowledge graphs.\nDatabricks, including catalogue structures and AI/ML capabilities.\nGit, GitHub, Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions, CI/CD pipelines and MLflow.\nWhat will help you succeed\nBusiness curiosity: you seek to understand the underlying business question before selecting a technical approach.\nCritical thinking: you check assumptions, explore alternative explanations and validate conclusions against evidence.\nProblem solving: you can structure ambiguous problems and learn unfamiliar technologies or datasets quickly.\nCollaboration: you work constructively with engineering, data and business colleagues.\nCommunication: you document your work clearly and adapt explanations to the audience.\nQuality and ownership: you test your work, pay attention to detail, ask for support when needed and follow through on commitments.\nYou do not need to master every technology listed above. We are looking for strong analytical and technical fundamentals, hands-on curiosity and the ability to learn and grow in a supportive team environment.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5098,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Internet Service Providers","Mobile Networks","Broadband","Managed Network Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-12T12:57:20Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":29,"reasons":["conf:2","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-11-12T15:12:29Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/proximus-junior-ai-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/proximus-junior-ai-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-12T15:12:29Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":31778,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-13T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":54371},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=54371"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fproximus-junior-ai-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fproximus-junior-ai-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fproximus-junior-ai-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/proximus-junior-ai-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fproximus-junior-ai-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4163641}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"proximus.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4163641},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
