AI-Workflow Engineer — Build Production-Ready Automations

UpperPlain; Time; On-site; NOK 900,000 - 1,200,000; Full time

Job summary

UpperPlain is seeking an AI-first engineer to turn repetitive tasks into reliable, repeatable workflows within existing client platforms. You will design end-to-end processes, select appropriate tools, and ensure clear inputs and review paths are built in.

You will collaborate with forward-deployed engineers, measure quality with real business examples, and optimize cost, evaluations, and logs after launch; production is the product.

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience shipping model-backed features in production, not only notebooks or demos.
• Built software around existing systems: APIs, queues, databases, and the ugly edge cases.
• You use AI tools constantly for your own work, and you know when the model is wrong.
• Comfort with structured output, tool use, retrieval, and human-in-the-loop design.
• You can sit with an operations lead, watch them process a document, and name the step worth automating first.

Responsibilities

• Turn a repetitive operational task into a reliable AI step with clear inputs, tools, and a review path.
• Build document and email intake, classification, summarization, and record-writing against the client's systems.
• Give agents access to the right tools: search, tickets, inventory, CRM fields, and nothing extra.
• Measure quality with real examples from the business, not only a happy-path prompt.
• Work with forward deployed engineers so the agent lives in the same platform the team already opens.
• Watch cost, evals, logs, and failure cases after launch. Production is the product.
