Descripción de la vacante

SimpliSoft in the Amsterdam area is hiring an AI engineer to build the AI that logistics teams use daily. You will ship features built for real clients, using real data, not demos. You will work on SimpliAgents, search and reporting on data in our Portal, and you’ll help decide where models run, with a focus on cost and reliability.

This is a hybrid role. Stack: TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Linux and Docker.

Formación

• Build AI features used by real clients with production-ready code.
• Understand retrieval, tools, guardrails and evaluation for language models.
• Write production-grade TypeScript that others can read and maintain.
• Know when a simple rule beats a model and say so.
• Dutch internally and English for international clients.
• Live within reasonable travel distance of Amsterdam and be on site regularly.

Responsabilidades

• Build AI features used by clients with real data in production.
• Design and improve retrieval, tools, guardrails and evaluation for LLMs.
• Ship readable, maintainable TypeScript code in a production stack.

Descripción del empleo

You build the AI that logistics teams use in their daily work. Agents, search and reporting on real client data, in production and not in a demo.

Amsterdam area, hybrid Full-time 32 to 40 hours a week

We take the slowest parts of how a company works and make them easy. Most of our clients are logistics companies moving serious volume, alongside startups that need to build properly from the start. We are a small team on purpose: short lines, fast decisions, and no layers between you and the person using what you built.

What you will work on

• SimpliAgents: agents built for one job each, such as quoting from a tariff list or writing customer emails, working from a client's own documents.
• Reporting and search on top of the data in our Portal, so people get an answer instead of an export.
• Finding out whether it actually works: test sets from real cases, and measuring quality before and after every change.
• Keeping cost in view, for us and for the client, per agent and per month.
• Choosing what runs where: hosted models through APIs or models on our own hardware, depending on what the data allows.

How we build

TypeScript on both sides: React and Next.js, Node.js and PostgreSQL. Linux and Docker on our own servers in Europe; client data does not go to the large cloud providers. Mistral is our default model, and the choice per job is part of your work.

How we work

• We move fast. You ship to production in your first weeks, with review.
• We use AI tooling every day, and you stay critical of what it produces. The code with your name on it is yours.
• You are close to the client: on calls, hearing the real problem.
• Feedback is direct and about the work, and we expect it back.
• Not everything is documented. Try it, look it up, then ask. Getting stuck is fine, staying stuck quietly is not.

What we are looking for

• You have built AI features that real people use, and you can show them. No specific diploma or years of experience.
• You know where language models go wrong, and you design for it: retrieval, tools, guardrails and evaluation.
• You write production code other people can read and maintain. TypeScript is what we use; if your background is another language, you are happy to switch.
• You can tell when a simple rule or query beats a model, and you say so.
• Dutch internally, and good English for our international clients.
• You live within reasonable travel distance of Amsterdam and can be on site regularly.

What we offer

• A market-conform salary and good benefits.
• AI that goes into production for real clients, not a proof of concept that stops at the demo.
• Room to decide how we do AI, in a small team where your choices stick.
• Hybrid work in the Amsterdam area with flexible hours.
• A learning budget, the hardware you need and the AI tooling we use ourselves.

The process

A first conversation, a technical session where we work through a real problem together, and a final conversation. No take-home assignment that eats your weekend.
