Overview

Artificial Intelligence is transforming how organisations solve complex challenges, deliver value, and create new opportunities for clients and communities. Within Nuclear EMEA, we are seeking a Principal AI & Software Solutions Lead to join our Transformation team and help shape, develop, and deliver practical AI and digital solutions that address real business and client needs. Combining deep software engineering expertise with emerging technologies such as AI, automation, data, and digital solutions, you will play a key role in turning innovative ideas into meaningful outcomes. Our focus is not technology for technology's sake, but on enhancing delivery, improving decision-making, increasing efficiency, and enabling new ways of working in a responsible, secure, and commercially valuable manner.

Reporting to the Transformation Director and working closely with the AI Delivery Lead, you will help evaluate opportunities, guide technical approaches, and support the progression of ideas into production-ready solutions. This is a hands-on leadership role with a key part to play in building a new AI and software solutions capability within Nuclear EMEA, helping to transform how the business identifies opportunities, develops solutions, and delivers value. Combining technical excellence, collaboration, and delivery leadership, you will help teams turn ambition into practical, scalable impact.

Your role

AI Use Case Assessment & Validation

  • Stay connected to developments across the AI landscape, bringing insights and emerging good practices into the business.
  • Partner with the AI team to assess proposed use cases, evaluating technology options, feasibility, value, effort, and risk.
  • Work closely with business and client-facing teams to explore opportunities, shape solutions, and rapidly prototype ideas.
  • Help identify practical and scalable approaches that align business needs with technological capabilities.

Delivery & Technical Leadership

  • Guide discovery activities, Proof of Concept development, and the transition of validated use cases into production-ready solutions.
  • Apply expertise in Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), retrieval strategies, and Large Language Model (LLM) orchestration to support solution delivery.
  • Design solution architectures using cloud AI platforms, including Azure AI Foundry or equivalent technologies, and vector databases.
  • Act as a trusted bridge between technical teams and business stakeholders, translating complex concepts into clear and actionable outcomes.
  • Support the delivery of secure, scalable, and sustainable solutions that create lasting value.

Team Leadership & Growth

  • Foster a collaborative and inclusive environment where software engineers can thrive while delivering AI and agentic solutions.
  • Provide technical direction and hands-on support throughout delivery, promoting strong architecture, code quality, and production readiness practices.
  • Support the development of junior and mid-level engineers through coaching, mentoring, constructive feedback, and knowledge sharing.
  • Help build team capability by aligning resources, developing talent, and supporting the effective mobilisation of teams across a growing portfolio of work.
  • Encourage continuous learning and create opportunities for others to strengthen their skills and expertise.

Standards & Organisational Learning

  • Partner with the AI Delivery Lead and Transformation Director to identify emerging opportunities, lessons learned, risks, and areas for improvement.
  • Contribute to the continuous enhancement of governance, standards, and ways of working.
  • Share knowledge and insights across teams to strengthen organisational capability and support long-term growth.
  • Bring a proactive and collaborative approach, helping teams overcome challenges, maintain momentum, and achieve successful outcomes together.
