Job description

At Food Folk, we’re stepping into the next phase of our AI journey, where AI becomes part of how we work, make decisions, and create value every day.

• Do you enjoy turning ideas into real, working solutions?
• Do you get energy from building AI tools that people actually use?
• Do you want to shape how AI is applied across a large, fast-moving organization?

If so, this is your opportunity to make a real impact.

About the Role

As our AI Developer / Product Owner, you will play a key role in making AI real across the organization.

You will take ownership of AI solutions throughout their full lifecycle, from early idea and use case definition to development, deployment, maintenance, and eventual decommissioning. Working closely with stakeholders across the business, you will turn needs into practical, secure, and measurable AI solutions that create real business value.

This is a hands‑on role where you combine technical execution with product ownership. You build, test, improve, and maintain solutions while ensuring they remain aligned with business goals, compliance requirements, and long‑term sustainability.

At the same time, you act as a connector between business and technology. You help colleagues understand how AI can support their daily work, create momentum around AI adoption, and ensure solutions are built with the right balance of speed, quality, and governance.

Who You Are

You’re someone who likes to make things happen.

You are curious, proactive, and motivated by turning AI into something useful and practical. You enjoy working in an environment where not everything is fully defined from the start, and you know how to create clarity, structure, and progress.

You are comfortable moving between business needs and technical solutions, and you thrive in cross‑functional environments where collaboration is key.

You don’t just explore AI, you build it, improve it, and make sure it creates value over time.

Skills & Experience

• Hands‑on experience building AI‑driven solutions, prototypes, or internal tools.
• Strong prompting skills and experience using AI tools to create agents, workflows, and automations.
• Comfortable working with modern AI tooling, including low‑code/no‑code and orchestration platforms such as n8n or similar.
• Understanding of how to take a use case from idea to working solution.
• Thrives in a fast‑paced environment and balances innovation with stability and risk control.

It is a strong plus if you also have:

• Understanding of AI governance, compliance, and responsible AI.
• Experience working across business, AI, and technical teams.
• Familiarity with cloud‑based AI services and platforms.
• Exposure to lightweight scripting such as Python or JavaScript.
• Experience from retail, QSR, or multi‑unit operations.
