Your colleagues—at all levels—will invest deeply in your development, just as much as they invest in delivering exceptional results for clients. Every day, you'll receive apprenticeship, coaching, and exposure that will accelerate your growth in ways you won’t find anywhere else.

When you join us, you will have:

• Continuous learning: Our learning and apprenticeship culture, backed by structured programs, is all about helping you grow while creating an environment where feedback is clear, actionable, and focused on your development. The real magic happens when you take the input from others to heart and embrace the fast-paced learning experience, owning your journey.

Your Impact
You’ll deploy and scale a next-generation AI platform designed to connect strategy to execution through advanced analytics, machine learning, and agentic systems.

You will sit at the intersection of software engineering and infrastructure, bringing advanced AI capabilities into real-world environments and ensuring they work at scale. You’ll play a key role in how these systems are deployed, adopted, and operated, enabling organizations to translate complex AI strategies into practical, high-impact solutions.

You’ll own the platform delivery lifecycle, bridging product engineering and client environments. Responsibilities include deploying and configuring production-grade systems across cloud and hybrid infrastructures (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP), validating performance and stability, and ensuring structured handovers for long-term success. Work often involves containerized and distributed systems, including Kubernetes-based environments, where reliability and operational stability are critical. You’ll troubleshoot issues end-to-end and ensure platforms are fully production-ready, while also contributing to deployment tooling, automation, and product feedback loops to improve platform reliability and delivery.

The impact of your work is tangible. You’ll enable clients to run AI-driven workflows and manage intelligent systems within their existing technology ecosystems. Working closely with technical stakeholders, you’ll ensure environment readiness, resolve deployment challenges, and guide adoption through practical best practices. Your experience from the field will also contribute to feedback loops between deployments and product development, supporting the continuous evolution of QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey technology.

Based in one of our European offices, you’ll work closely with engineers, product teams, and technical experts across the QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey global community. Beyond platform deployments, you’ll collaborate with data scientists, machine learning engineers, designers, and technologists on interdisciplinary initiatives, contributing to a broader ecosystem of AI innovation. Together, you’ll help operationalize advanced AI systems across industries, driving successful delivery, validation, and adoption in client environments. You'll also contribute to team knowledge-sharing — documenting patterns, refining delivery practices, and supporting colleagues across engagements.

At QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey, you’ll thrive in an unparalleled environment for growth. You’ll develop a sought-after perspective by connecting technology and business value, work across industries, and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to unlock the transformative potential of AI, while advancing as a technologist and leader.
