The Role
We are looking for a Senior AI Integration Consultant to help define how AI services can be integrated into complex enterprise and legacy environments.
The focus of this assignment is to establish a practical and actionable blueprint for integrating Databricks-hosted AI services, primarily using OpenAI / Azure OpenAI models, into existing credit underwriting workflows.
This is not purely a strategy or advisory position. You will combine solution architecture expertise with hands-on AI integration experience, working closely with AI, architecture, application, security, data and business teams.
Within approximately three months, you will be expected to deliver a clear target architecture, reusable integration patterns, an implementation roadmap and a recommendation for an initial pilot.
Key Responsibilities
- Assess the current application, workflow and system architecture.
- Design a target architecture for integrating AI services into existing enterprise applications.
- Define API-based and event-driven integration patterns.
- Design orchestration, authentication, data flows and system dependencies.
- Integrate AI and LLM-based services hosted through Databricks.
- Help transform standalone AI capabilities into reusable enterprise services.
- Define clear service boundaries, interfaces and integration standards.
- Translate business journeys and use cases into implementable technical designs.
- Identify technical dependencies, constraints, risks and implementation priorities.
- Address enterprise requirements around security, privacy, IAM, auditability, resilience, scalability and monitoring.
- Produce architecture diagrams, integration blueprints and technical documentation.
- Create a pragmatic implementation roadmap and recommend the first AI integration pilot.
- Work closely with business, AI development, data, architecture, security and application teams.
Required Experience
- Strong experience as a Solution Architect, AI Architect, Integration Architect or AI Consultant.
- Proven experience designing integration blueprints for embedding AI services into existing enterprise workflows.
- Strong knowledge of enterprise and legacy application integration.
- Hands‑on experience with Databricks.
- Practical experience integrating LLMs / Generative AI services, ideally Azure OpenAI or OpenAI models, into production environments.
- Strong knowledge of REST APIs, API integration, event‑driven architecture and orchestration.
- Experience with authentication, access management and secure enterprise integrations.
- Ability to define both current‑state and target‑state architectures.
- Experience operationalising AI or data services in enterprise environments.
- Strong understanding of security, privacy, monitoring, resilience, auditability and scalability.
- Experience working across multiple technical and business stakeholder groups.
- Able to work independently and deliver tangible outcomes within a short consulting engagement.
Highly Desirable
- Previous experience within banking, financial services, lending, credit underwriting or vendor finance.
- Experience integrating AI into workflow, case‑management or decisioning platforms.
- Be available for 38–40 hours per week.
- Live within approximately 1.5 hours travel time of Eindhoven.
- Be comfortable working full‑time from the Eindhoven office during the onboarding period.
- Be available on a payroll/employment basis; ZZP/freelance candidates cannot be considered.
This is a strong opportunity for a senior AI/integration specialist who enjoys turning emerging AI capabilities into practical, secure and scalable enterprise solutions.
