Job description

Our Vision

We believe in a world where everyone, regardless of their country’s wealth or frontiers, enjoys access to medicines and healthcare when they need it.

Our Mission

We work tirelessly to remove access barriers faced by patients and caregivers across Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) when seeking quality medicines and quality healthcare.

Who We Are:

Accelerating access to medicines for all

Imagine a world where critical medicines are within reach, affordable, and synonymous with quality, no matter where you are. That is the world we're building with our unique, demand-aggregation model that unites healthcare providers across LMICs. At the heart of our identity is a single, resolute commitment: to build a future where geography and income never stand between any individual and life‑saving medicines. Our platform isn't merely a space for transactions, we unlock affordable access to medicines by aggregating demand across healthcare providers. We also help manufacturers build a sustainable and reliable global access strategy.

Our business focuses on low- and middle-income countries and strengthens the purchasing power of these markets to ensure the supply of cost-effective, high-quality medicines.
We partner exclusively with authorized, high-quality pharmaceutical companies and certified caregivers to accelerate sustainable access to medicines.

Axmed uses technology and a transparency-first business model to change how medicines and health products reach patients in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), making access more affordable, efficient, and equitable for the patients who need it most.

The role

We're hiring an AI Engineer to build production‑grade autonomous agents that run the key steps of our procurement marketplace, with a human in the loop where it matters. This is not a research role. You'll ship agents into production that handle real transactions, real suppliers, and real buyers, and you'll be accountable for how they perform once they're live.

You'll work closely with our commercial and operations teams to identify which parts of the procurement workflow (sourcing, quoting, order matching, supplier follow-up, compliance checks, and more) are ready for agentic automation. You'll be the one who designs, builds, ships, and monitors those agents end-to-end.

What you’ll own

• Design and build end-to-end agents that autonomously perform key steps of the procurement workflow

• Build in human review checkpoints where autonomy carries too much risk, deciding where agents should act alone and where they should flag for a person

• Own the full lifecycle: design, build, deploy, monitor, iterate. You ship it, you watch it, you fix it

• Instrument agents so failures are visible fast: logging, monitoring, and alerting, not just “it works on my machine”

• Work directly with commercial and operations teams to map real workflow steps into agent specs. You'll need to understand the procurement process, not just the code

• Make judgment calls on reliability, cost, and latency trade-offs for a live marketplace, and continuously improve agents based on real production data and failure modes

What we’re looking for:

• Strong software engineering fundamentals: you can build reliable systems, not just call an LLM API

• Fluency with the modern agentic stack: LLM APIs and orchestration frameworks, tool use and function calling, Python, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD

• Ability to design human-in-the-loop systems, knowing where automation should stop and a person should step in

Experience

• You have built and shipped AI agents into a live production environment, not just prototyped them

• You have owned systems after launch: monitoring them, debugging failures, and iterating on real production data

• You have worked in environments with ambiguity and limited infrastructure, where you decide the approach rather than execute one

Traits

• A builder's mindset: you would rather ship something real and iterate than perfect something in isolation

• Comfortable with ambiguity, making judgment calls rather than waiting for a full spec

• Collaborative with non-technical teams, translating real workflows into working systems

Right to Work:

As an early-stage company, we are not currently able to offer visa sponsorship or relocation support. For this reason, candidates must already have the legal right to work in the country where they are based.

What is in it for you?

At Axmed, we believe in creating a supportive and rewarding environment where our team can thrive. Here’s what we offer:

• Unlimited PTO: Take the time you need to recharge and maintain work-life balance.

• Monthly wellness allowance: Prioritize your health and well-being with extra support.

• Paid parental leave: Time off to bond with your new family member without any added stress.

• Flexible working hours: Enjoy the freedom to structure your workday in a way that suits your lifestyle.

• Annual off-site retreats: Connect with the team and build lasting relationships during our company retreats.

• Fully remote work: Work from anywhere in the world and join our distributed team.

• The opportunity to make a difference: Be part of a mission-driven company working to improve healthcare equity.

• Competitive salaries: We offer a compensation package that reflects your skills and experience.

• Plenty of room for growth: We believe in nurturing talent and offering opportunities for professional development and advancement.
