From programmer to AI Engineer: Master the full generative AI lifecycle, from optimizing local models to building autonomous agents.

Generative artificial intelligence is redefining software development. An increasing portion of code is already generated or assisted by AI, and companies are accelerating the adoption of these technologies to gain efficiency, reduce costs, and innovate faster.

In this context, the role of the developer is evolving: it is no longer enough to write code, but to design systems that integrate AI in a robust, secure, and scalable way. Organizations are looking for professionals capable of moving from occasional tool usage to a strategic integration of AI into workflows and development environments.

The postgraduate course in AI Engineering for Developers was created to directly address this transformation in the professional landscape. Its goal is to train programmers in the advanced use of AI technologies in software development, with a clearly practical approach focused on real-world professional environments.

This program goes beyond simply using tools: it focuses on how to design, integrate, and govern AI-based solutions within existing architectures, taking into account key aspects such as security, privacy, code quality, and regulatory compliance. The program combines technical foundations (model architecture, advanced prompt engineering, API integration, automation, infrastructure, security, and ethics) with practical applications based on real-world cases of AI-assisted development.

The Institut Tecnològic de Barcelona (ITB), a benchmark center in technological vocational training, takes part in this AI postgraduate program with its Nuvulet infrastructure, a data center equipped with the latest NVIDIA technology. This ensures high-performance computing capacity so that students can complete the course with maximum guarantees and without relying on third parties. ITB thus strengthens its commitment to educational excellence and technological sovereignty.
