Job description

Software Implementation Engineer (AI & Agentic Automation)

Location: Ballito, KwaZulu-Natal

We're not looking for someone to implement software.

We're looking for someone to build the future of work.

AI is moving beyond chatbots.

Businesses now need intelligent agents that can think, decide, integrate with enterprise systems, and complete work autonomously.

That's exactly what we build.

We're looking for a Software Implementation Engineer who enjoys solving real-world problems using AI, automation and modern cloud technologies. If APIs, workflows and AI agents excite you more than maintaining legacy systems, keep reading.

What You'll Be Building

You’ll design and deploy AI-powered solutions that become an extension of our clients’ workforce.

Your work will include:

  • Building autonomous AI agents that automate customer journeys and business processes.
  • Integrating AI with CRMs, ERP systems, payment platforms and communication channels.
  • Designing event-driven workflows using APIs, webhooks and automation platforms.

  • Testing, refining and optimising AI performance to ensure reliable production deployments.
  • Working directly with clients to understand challenges and deliver measurable business outcomes.

  • Experience working with Python for scripting, data transformation or automation.
  • Solid understanding of databases, data mapping and data transformation.
  • Experience integrating business systems such as Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics or similar CRM platforms.
  • Excellent troubleshooting and analytical problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to communicate confidently with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • A genuine passion for Artificial Intelligence and emerging technologies.
Advantageous Experience
  • OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic or other LLM platforms.
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
  • AI Agents and Agentic workflows.
  • Voice AI technologies.
  • n8n, Make, Zapier or similar workflow automation platforms.
  • Serverless cloud platforms such as Google Cloud Platform, AWS or Cloudflare Workers.
  • Vector databases.
  • Prompt engineering and LLM evaluation.
  • Docker and Git.
  • Agile software delivery.
You’ll Fit In If You…You’re someone who:
  • Loves solving technical puzzles.
  • Thinks logically and enjoys building elegant solutions.
  • Learns new technologies quickly.
  • Takes ownership from design through deployment.
  • Enjoys working in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

Why Join Us?

Based in Ballito, KwaZulu-Natal, you’ll join a high-performing team that’s building practical AI solutions for enterprise clients—not experimenting in a lab.

You’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Work with cutting-edge AI technologies every day.
  • Build solutions that deliver measurable business impact.
  • Collaborate directly with enterprise clients.
  • Learn rapidly in one of the fastest-growing areas of technology.
  • Shape how businesses adopt AI.
  • Grow your career in a business where initiative, innovation and results are recognised and rewarded.

We believe the best ideas are built together, so this role is primarily office-based, with limited hybrid flexibility for high-performing team members.

Six Months From Now…You’ll have:
  • Delivered multiple enterprise AI implementations.
  • Built production-ready AI agents and automated workflows.
  • Led complex integrations across multiple business platforms.
  • Become a trusted technical advisor to our clients.
  • Helped define the next generation of AI solutions within our business.
Think You’re the One?
