Job description

We’re looking for an AI Engineer who enjoys building useful software and wants to do more than experiment with AI, someone who can turn it into reliable solutions that people actually use.

At Boyum IT, we’re exploring how AI can make a real difference across our products and the way we work internally. That might mean building an assistant that helps colleagues find the right information faster, supporting our customer-facing teams with smarter tools, or connecting AI capabilities with our existing products and systems.

This is a practical, hands‑on engineering role. You’ll have space to explore new ideas, but the goal is always the same: build something useful, reliable, and ready for the real world.

You don’t need to know every technology in our stack from day one. We’re looking for a strong software engineer who already has some hands‑on experience with AI and wants to go deeper.

Location: Aarhus, Denmark - regular office presence is required.

About the Team: We call ourselves the “Unified Platform Services” team and work across products and development teams to build shared solutions and make individual product teams more effective. We also help shape how AI is used across our different products. We are a small team with a mix of skills across AI, DevOps, and traditional software development.

What You Will Be Doing

As our new AI engineer colleague, you will be assigned to specific AI projects and deliveries, but you’ll also share what you learn and help other development teams make effective use of AI tools. As part of these two focus areas, you will:

• Design, build and maintain AI-powered applications, assistants and services.
• Develop backend services and APIs.
• Work with LLM-powered applications, RAG, semantic search and agentic workflows.
• Build and improve data pipelines and knowledge bases used by AI applications.
• Help evaluate AI solutions and improve their quality, reliability and accuracy.
• Deploy and operate solutions in Azure.
• Work with Docker, CI/CD and Azure DevOps as part of the development lifecycle.
• Collaborate with product teams and internal functions to understand problems and turn them into practical technical solutions.
• Build reusable tools, integrations and templates that help other teams work effectively with AI.
• Share knowledge and contribute to how we use AI across the company.

Our current technology landscape includes Python, PostgreSQL/vector, Dagster, Azure, Azure AI Foundry, MCP, Docker and Azure DevOps.

What We Are Looking For

We think you’ll be a good match if you have:

• At least 3+ years of software development experience, ideally in backend or software engineering
• Experience building production services or APIs – ideally AI-related ones
• Hands‑on experience building AI-powered applications or integrating AI into software
• A solid understanding of databases, testing, and maintainable software
• Curiosity about where AI genuinely adds value, and where it doesn’t
• The ability to work with both technical and non-technical colleagues to understand a problem before jumping to a solution

Nice to Have

Experience with any of the following is a bonus, not a checklist:

• C#
• Azure or another cloud platform
• Docker, DevOps, and CI/CD
• Data pipelines
• RAG, embeddings, vector databases, or AI agents
