Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a buzzword. It’s already shaping how businesses hire, innovate, and scale their IT teams. From fintech and healthcare to the public sector, AI is automating processes, streamlining tasks, cutting costs, and creating new opportunities – but only if you have the right talent.
The next generation of talent needs to include AI Engineers who can apply AI into your business.
AI vs. Applied AI
Unlike general AI, Applied AI is practical, and is already making an impact in many businesses. Its Artificial Intelligence embedded in tools and systems to solve real-world problems. Think:
- Fraud detection in banking
- Predictive maintenance in manufacturing
- Smart chatbots in customer service
- Personalised product recommendations in retail
It’s about taking AI out of the theory books and putting it into action. Applying AI means building and maintaining practical solutions. So, you need people who understand how to apply AI tech to drive real value in your business.
Why Training Junior AI Talent Matters Now
AI’s integration into the workplace can’t rely on experienced hires – the growing skills gap means a new wave of junior talent needs to be trained. Here’s what we’re seeing:
- Hybrid Skillsets are Key: AI Engineers need more than coding skills. They must understand automation platforms, data pipelines, machine learning tools, and increasingly, techniques like prompt engineering.
- The Talent Gap is Growing: There simply aren’t enough experienced AI professionals to go around. Businesses waiting for senior hires risk falling behind. The solution? Invest in junior talent and grow your own experts.
- Hands-On Skills Are the Missing Link: Many people now have some theoretical AI knowledge but little experience applying it in real-world environments. What’s needed now is practical, hands-on training, especially for junior talent, so they can contribute meaningfully from day one.
- AI is Implemented by Teams: AI projects don’t rely on one superstar Data Scientist – they require collaboration across development, data, product, and operations. It’s crucial to develop junior AI Engineers who not only have technical ability but can also work across teams and understand broader business context. Existing teams need to be AI literate, from requirements through to live operations.
