About Open Intelligence:
Open Intelligence (OI) is one of WPP’s most strategic bets — a data and AI initiative at the intersection of machine learning, advertising technology, and audience insight, built to power the next generation of media intelligence. OI operates at real scale, running across the US and UK and expanding rapidly across EMEA and APAC.
Our Copenhagen team has ~50 people, including 14+ data scientists and a strong engineering group. We’re flat, high-trust and fast-moving: strong opinions loosely held, teamwork over ego, aim high and have fun.
Why we're hiring:
Open Intelligence is accelerating the development of its core AI capabilities, and we are strengthening our applied-AI and engineering group in Copenhagen. We need a Senior Engineer who can bridge the gap between AI experimentation and production software engineering — taking cutting-edge model research, multimodal embeddings, and agentic tools, and turning them into scalable, robust, and well-architected components that power products across WPP globally.
We are looking for a Senior Engineer who cares about architecture and code quality as much as the AI. You write code others can build on, reason confidently about system design, and enjoy taking something experimental and making it robust. You hold a high bar but stay pragmatic — you ship incrementally and get value out early.
We lean toward an engineering-minded profile, but a strongly technical data scientist or ML engineer with the same instincts is very welcome.
What you'll be doing:
Who you'll be working with:
You’ll join a small, sharp team working at the embedding and applied-AI layer of OI. We work fluidly across a few closely-collaborating teams, so exact ownership flexes — but this is what the team is building right now:
It’s a team-centric setup: the team grows and delivers together, and the remit evolves as OI does. The work spans clean architecture, high-quality code, and applied AI.
What you'll need:

You're extraordinary: we are stronger together: through collaboration we achieve the amazing. We are creative leaders and pioneers of our industry; we provide extraordinary every day.

Scale and opportunity – We offer the opportunity to create, influence and complete projects at a scale that is unparalleled in the industry.
Challenging and stimulating work – Unique work and the opportunity to join a group of creative problem solvers. Are you up for the challenge?
