About the role

  • You’ll work on building AI-powered systems that solve real business problems — combining code, APIs, and AI tools to create reliable, scalable solutions.
  • Build and deploy AI-powered workflows and backend systems
  • Design solutions that combine APIs, scripts, and AI agents
  • Work with internal teams to understand problems and turn them into technical solutions
  • Prototype quickly — but also improve and harden systems over time
  • Optimize solutions (e.g., reduce token usage, improve performance)
  • Debug and adapt systems when things don’t work as expected
  • Document your work and explain your thinking clearly

Requirements

  • Solid programming fundamentals (Python preferred)
  • Comfortable working with APIs and building integrations
  • Ability to build solutions without relying entirely on AI tools
  • Strong problem-solving skills — you can break down and reason through problems
  • Clear communication — you can explain what you built and why
  • Curiosity and ownership — you like figuring things out, not just following instructions
  • Experience building backend systems, scripts, or APIs
  • Projects where you combined code + AI (not just prompting tools)
  • Understanding of how systems work under the hood (not just using them)
Benefits
  • Work on real systems used by operating businesses
  • Learn how to combine software engineering + AI in production
  • High ownership — your work ships fast and matters
  • Mentorship from experienced developers
  • Fully remote
