Job Description
About the Role:
Wipro is building a Forward Deployed AI Engineering team to support an AI-first infrastructure organization. The goal is to embed AI engineers directly across infrastructure teams, build a centralized AI engineering pool that can rapidly solve business problems, and automate manual infrastructure processes wherever possible.
Early AI initiatives on the account have already delivered a 60% reduction in migration effort, a 50% reduction in modernization effort, and an automated vulnerability discovery and remediation pipeline. These engineers are expected to act as transformation catalysts — not traditional developers — using AI as the first approach to solving problems and inspiring the existing engineering teams around them.
