AI Engineer

**The Role** We are growing, and we are looking to fill this role as soon as possible. This is a hybrid role for someone who is both a strong engineer and a genuine student of the AI field. You will own core parts of our retrieval and reasoning stack end to end — design, implementation, deployment, and everything that happens after it goes live — and you will help decide where the product goes next as the space evolves. We are not looking for someone who implements tickets. We are looking for someone who understands why a given approach wins, can make that call, and is accountable for how it behaves in front of real enterprise customers. We are open on level. We hire from junior through senior, and we scope the role to the person. If you are experienced, you will set technical direction and engineering standards for the AI stack from day one. If you are earlier in your career but sharp and hungry to learn, you will work closely with people who have shipped this kind of system before, take real ownership quickly, and grow into that scope. What matters to us is the trajectory, not the title on your last CV. What You Will Work On • Design and improve our agentic retrieval and reasoning systems, including ReAct-style loops that retrieve, reformulate, call tools, and self-critique before answering • Build and tune the retrieval layer that grounds everything we deliver: hybrid search combining dense and sparse methods, reranking, and knowledge-graph-augmented retrieval for relational, multi-hop questions • Work across model selection, tuning, and evaluation against real business use cases rather than benchmarks • Develop the AI-assisted annotation pipeline behind our taxonomy • Own these systems in production: deployment, evaluation on live traffic, monitoring, latency, reliability, and cost • Grow into (or start with) setting technical direction and engineering standards for the AI stack, depending on where you are in your career What We Are Looking For Read the list below as a description of the person we are looking for, not a checklist you must already satisfy. We hire at every level, and we would rather have someone strong who is missing a few of these than someone who ticks every box but stops learning. Current AI expertise, or a fast route to it. Ideally you have hands-on experience with modern retrieval and agentic systems: agentic RAG, hybrid retrieval with reranking, and knowledge-graph approaches. You understand the limits of naive vector search and know when to reach for each technique. If you are earlier in your career, show us you follow what is shipping in the field, that you have built something real with it, and that you form your own view rather than repeating the consensus. Engineering strength. You write production code and are comfortable, or ready to get comfortable, with cloud environments (Azure, AWS, or GCP) and modern data architectures. Experience building scalable AI pipelines and working with automated machine learning workflows is a strong plus. Production experience is preferred. We prefer someone who has run systems in production and can own what happens after the demo: deployment and CI/CD, evaluation on live traffic, monitoring, reliability, latency, and cost. If you have seen how AI systems fail with real users and real data, that counts for a lot with us. If you have not yet, tell us how you would find out — we will teach the rest. Willingness to learn. This is not a consolation prize; it is one of the things we actually screen for. This field moves faster than any résumé can keep up with, so appetite and judgment beat a perfect keyword match. Juniors are genuinely welcome to apply: if you are sharp, curious, and willing to put in the work to learn what you do not know yet, we want to hear from you. Problem-solving. You can translate vague, real-world business challenges from enterprise clients into defined technical specifications and clear analytical roadmaps, and navigate ambiguous problems without waiting for perfect requirements. Business judgment. You connect technical decisions to commercial outcomes and can hold your own in a customer or business development conversation. Founder mindset. You have started your own company before, or you intend to one day. You take ownership of outcomes, move with urgency, and thrive in an early-stage environment. Communication. You explain technical trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders without losing precision. Experience with Scrum or SAFe is a plus. **What We Offer** • Strong, competitive compensation that rewards the impact you make • Equity in the company for the right candidate, so you share in what we build together • Flexible remote / hybrid working • Ownership of core technology in a product with real customers, not a prototype • Close collaboration with an experienced founding and management team • A role scoped to your level, with real room to grow — and the people around you to learn from • A fast-moving environment backed by strong investors and operators
