Job description

Job

We are looking for a hands‑on AI software developer to build and implement AI-powered tools, workflows, and internal projects. This is an execution‑focused role. The focus is not AI strategy, content creation, or theory. We need someone who can take an idea, understand the problem, build a working solution, test it, and improve it.

• Build and implement AI‑powered tools, automations, and workflows.
• Develop practical software solutions using AI APIs, automation tools, integrations, and backend logic.
• Extend existing systems and workflows with AI features.
• Work with internal teams to understand needs and turn them into usable technical solutions.
• Build prototypes quickly and improve them into reliable working tools.
• Connect AI tools with existing platforms, databases, APIs, and internal processes.
• Write, test, and ship clean, functional code.
• Document solutions clearly so other team members can understand and use them.
• Independently research new tools, technologies, and approaches when needed.

Individual

• Real hands‑on experience building AI‑based projects.
• A portfolio, demo, GitHub repository, or other proof of work is required for the application.
• Solid programming skills and the ability to write and ship code.
• Experience with projects such as AI APIs and automation, backend logic, databases, server‑side applications, internal tools, workflow automation, integrations between different systems, and AI agents, assistants, or custom AI workflows.
• Ability to understand existing workflows and improve them with AI.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to explain technical topics clearly in English.
• A fast learner who can independently explore new technologies.
• Someone practical, curious, and solution‑oriented.

What We Will Look for in Your Application

• Concrete project examples, for example: “I built X using Y to solve Z.”
• GitHub repositories, live demos, portfolios, or videos showing real work.
• Evidence of curiosity and self‑driven learning.
• Experience building tools with practical use cases.
• Clear communication and structured thinking.
• Real technical depth beyond generic CV buzzwords.
• Ability to explain what they built, why they built it, and how it works.
