AI Engineer - Analytics & End-User Insights

Intersnack is building a next-generation AI and data foundation and this role is at the heart of making that foundation meaningful for the people who rely on it every day. As our AI Engineer for Analytics & End-User Insights, you will bridge the gap between enterprise data architecture and the business users who depend on trustworthy, actionable intelligence to make decisions. You will report into the AI Programme and collaborate across procurement, manufacturing, and sales to deliver AI-powered reporting that business teams can understand, trust, and act on. 

You will join a collaborative, internationally minded team building something genuinely new: a modern, AI-grounded analytics capability that complements existing reporting and serves real business decisions. This role offers significant autonomy to shape how AI is introduced into the daily workflows of colleagues across multiple functions and countries. The impact of your work will be visible and measurable, from the moment a business user receives an AI-generated insight they trust, to the gradual reduction of manual reporting steps that once dominated their week. Dusseldorf serves as your home base, with flexibility for remote working, and the broader Intersnack network gives you exposure to a truly international operating environment. 

You will operate at the intersection of data engineering, AI, and business enablement: designing the data supply chain and semantic infrastructure that makes AI-driven analytics possible, while ensuring that the people who consume those analytics are equipped to use them with confidence. Your focus spans architecture and adoption in equal measure, working closely with business stakeholders to define what good looks like and then building the pipelines and models to get there. 

What You Will Do 

• Design and implement decoupled data supply chains, spanning landing zones, quality and transformation layers, and consumption layers, to ensure consistently high-quality data reaches analytics and AI systems 

• Implement and document business KPIs as defined by business stakeholders, ensuring full metric traceability; define, implement, and document technical KPIs for AI application performance in collaboration with the data architect, ensuring explainability and observability across all AI-driven outputs 

• Build and maintain a semantic layer that enables AI-based insight generation, bridging structured data assets with natural-language querying and large language model (LLM) integration 

• Lead the expansion of existing BI reporting with AI-supported, RAG-driven analytics, progressively complementing manual report runs with dynamic, contextual insight delivery 

• Develop and maintain data models, transformations, and pipelines using industry-standard tooling, complementing existing data infrastructure and ensuring data quality, lineage, and observability throughout 

• Expose data assets and AI services via well-designed APIs, supporting consumption by both technical and non-technical consumers 

• Act as a frontline coach and enabler for business users and citizen analysts, building AI and data literacy across the organisation and supporting adoption of AI-assisted workflows 

• Embed security-by-design principles into all analytics and AI assets, including protections against prompt injection, data leakage, and model misuse 

• Collaborate across IT, data, security, and business functions to ensure analytics outputs are governed, compliant with EU AI Act and GDPR requirements, and aligned to Intersnack's data sovereignty standards
