THE CHALLENGE:

We are looking for a passionate and talented Junior AI Engineer to support our world wide initiatives. In this role, you'll identify opportunities to optimize processes, improve operations, and drive new revenue streams. You'll be involved in rapid prototyping and collaborating with engineering and product teams to implement GenAI solutions that deliver business results.

  • Support digital transformation by exploring generative AI opportunities.
  • Integrate AI/ML solutions to enhance efficiency and productivity.
  • Start innovative projects with quick and effective prototyping.
  • Collaborate with teams to build and refine AI-powered products.
  • Develop and deploy AI applications that generate cost savings and new value.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to build, refine, and commercialize new AI-powered products.

ABOUT YOU:

  • Some experience in Data Science, Machine Learning, or AI engineering, particularly with Generative AI models.
  • Basic programming experience in any language.
  • Interest in deploying AI solutions at scale.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and eagerness to learn.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
  • Curiosity and a drive to explore and apply new AI technologies.
  • Enjoy working in an experiment-based environment, with a proactive approach to testing hypotheses, analyzing results, and sharing insights.

OUR OFFER:

  • A collaborative environment with colleagues from all over the world (Engineering offices in Europe, Asia and US) including various social events and teambuilding.
  • Flexibility to manage your workday and tasks with autonomy.
  • A balance of structure and autonomy to tackle your daily tasks.
  • Vibrant and inclusive community, including Women in Tech and Pride groups which welcome all participants.

  • Calm and Reulay app (leading well-being apps designed to support focus, quality rest, mindfulness, and long-term mental resilience).
  • Online training videos.
  • Flexible working hours.

While we appreciate the flexibility and benefits of working from home, we strongly believe that coming together in person fosters stronger connections, encourages collaboration, and drives innovation—both as individuals and as a company. The energy, shared ideas, and team support we experience in the office strengthen the foundation of our success and culture. For this reason, we are an office-first business operating on a hybrid model, with team members working in the office three days a week to build relationships, exchange ideas, and grow together.
