Job Description

Visium combines strategy, frontier AI, and deep regulated-industry expertise to build and deploy AI-native systems that reinvent how businesses operate - unlocking the value of AI at scale.

We're not a strategy firm that ships slide decks and walks away. Not a tech consultancy that builds what won't get adopted. Not a product company chasing problems it doesn't understand. We're all three at once: strategy, deep technical and integration expertise, and product, working as one. That combination is our flywheel. Consulting keeps us close to the hardest real-world problems. Products let us solve them at scale. Every engagement sharpens our products; every deployment makes the next engagement faster, deeper, and more certain.

We're obsessed with outcomes. While 95% of enterprise AI pilots never reach production, Visium is built to be the 5% delivering productised AI that compounds in value, not point solutions that deliver marginal gains. We are AI-native, not AI-adjacent. We don't bolt AI onto broken workflows; we redesign them with AI at the core.

Role

As our AI Operations Lead, you own how Visium works with AI internally. You help shape the strategy and turn it into a running operation: the tooling everyone relies on, the enablement that makes them proficient, the automations that remove busywork, and the measurement that proves it is working.

This is an internal role, not a client delivery one. Your client is Visium. You will design and build agentic workflows that improve how our own teams operate, roll out and govern our AI tool stack, train people to actually use it, and stand up the operating loops that keep it healthy over time.

Responsibilities

  • Implement and take part in shaping Visium’s internal AI strategy with leadership, then own it end to end: from direction to a running, measurable operation.
  • Design, build and deploy agentic workflows and automations that improve how teams across Visium operate.
  • Drive adoption and enablement: build shared resources and reference setups, and design a continuous learning loop that keeps everyone sharp.
  • Communicate policies and ways of working clearly, and make people actually want to follow them.
  • Measure impact: track adoption and productivity signals, report ROI to leadership, and decide what to keep, kill or change based on the data.
  • Make pragmatic build-versus-buy decisions, favouring simple, managed solutions over over-engineering.

Requirements

You are a genuine AI nerd. You tinker after hours, you run local models, you have opinions about agent frameworks, and you read Hacker News before your coffee is cold. You have actually coded with agents and run real agentic workflows, like Cowork-style flows for example. You also are the kind of person who already has their own OpenClaw or Hermes agent running on a Mac mini at home. Not because we would ever drop those into Visium’s infrastructure, but because we want someone who likes to try things out, and who understands the limitations by experience. Someone who can then apply the precept to a highly secured environment, knowing what is mature and what is not.

But you are not only a builder. You think about AI’s impact on how people work and live, not just on output. You care about making colleagues more capable and happier, not merely faster. You have done change management with tech or AI before, and you know that the hard part is people, not models. You have a solution-driven mindset: you dig for the real problem before reaching for an implementation.

You believe in well-organized, centralized information and you keep your own work tidy. You are security-minded and fluent in cloud and licensing. You are opinionated but you like to think and plan out loud with others. And because you will mostly work by yourself, you are genuinely independent: you can take a direction and run with it without hand-holding.

To succeed in this role, you bring a combination of expertise, experience, and skills including:

  • Strong technical background. Software or AI engineering foundation, comfortable building and shipping. Security-minded by default.
  • Hands-on with agentic AI. Real experience coding with agents and running agentic workflows in practice — Cowork and beyond. Bonus credibility if you have stood up your own OpenClaw, Hermes, or comparable agent setup for personal use; we read that as proof you live this, not just read about it.
  • Strong understanding of agentic AI security domain. The attack surface, the common traps.
  • Automation and integration skills. Able to design and build workflows, MCP servers, and a clean internal data layer that agents can act on.
  • Cloud and licensing fluency. Comfortable reasoning about cloud platforms, tool tiers, access models, data privacy, and cost.
  • Change management and communication. Proven track record of driving adoption of new tools or ways of working, training people, and communicating policy clearly. You know how to talk to engineers and non-engineers alike.
  • Product and UX instinct. You scope the real problem and prefer simple, managed solutions over over-engineering. You know when to buy and when to build.
  • Independence and ownership. You can run a mandate solo with light supervision and organize your own delivery.
  • Languages: Fluent in English.

Nice to have: experience in a consultancy or fast-moving tech environment, exposure to ML/data engineering, and a real interest in the broader impact of AI on work and society.
