Within the AI space, there is a diversity of jobs requiring various levels of expertise:
- More foundational jobs include data architects, software engineers and machine and deep learning engineers.
- Advanced roles include specialist research engineers, including those that specialise in computer vision, language and speech, and AI architects.
