Job description

Who we are

ADC is a Boutique Data and AI consultancy with offices in the Netherlands, Sweden, and Denmark, and an award-winning data design studio (CLEVER°FRANKE) embedded in the group. We help organisations turn data and AI into real impact, leading a mission to accelerate the responsible use of Data and AI. We bring the full data value chain under one roof: from strategy and engineering to analytics, data science, and design. This way, we turn complex data into clear roadmaps, scalable foundations, AI-powered tools, and experiences people actually enjoy using.

We are a collective of statisticians, designers, PhDs, and agentic AI engineers with deep expertise in the industries we serve: financial services, life sciences, healthcare, the public sector, retail, agriculture, and transportation. We do not arrive with generic tools and a slide deck. We walk in, work alongside the people who know the organisation best, and build solutions that actually run.

We call ourselves Wayfinders. Our clients trust us to navigate complexity and make it real: turning ambition into action in environments where the margin for error is small and the consequences of getting it wrong are real, for customers, employees, supply chains, and the bottom line.

Build and Scale the AI Solutions That Drive Real Business Impact

Our Technology & Innovation team is growing, and we are looking for a GenAI Engineer who is curious and eager to grow with us. As a GenAI Engineer you will uncover scalable AI solutions that create real business value, while applying state-of-the-art GenAI, Python development, cloud platforms, and modern MLOps for CI/CD and monitoring.

You’llbe part of a true collective, working alongside consultants, data engineers, and AI specialists to deliver impact-driven solutions.

• Design end-to-end AI pipelines, ensuring scalability, efficiency, and long-term impact

Shape Client Success

• Build robust monitoring frameworks to keep models performing at their best, proactively managing drift and retraining needs
• Bridge the gap between business strategy and technical execution, collaborating closely with decision-makers to align AI solutions with their goals
• Participate in client meetings and working sessions, helping to explain technical concepts in a clear way
