In this role, you’ll help design and build AI-powered features that are integrated directly into real-world applications and data platforms. You’ll work closely with experienced engineers, product managers, and architects to develop scalable backend services, integrate AI tools and APIs, and contribute to production-ready systems used by enterprise clients.

This is a hands-on engineering role with strong mentorship and learning opportunities, ideal for someone who enjoys both software development and applied AI technologies.

  • Participate in testing, debugging, monitoring, and improving production systems
  • Contribute to technical documentation, API specifications, and architecture discussions
  • Learn and apply best practices in software engineering, cloud development, and AI integration
  • Participate in code reviews and collaborate with senior engineers to improve code quality and system reliability
  • Stay current with emerging AI/ML technologies, tools, and engineering practices

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, AI, or a related field
  • Internship, co-op, academic project, or personal project experience in software engineering, AI/ML, or backend development
  • Proficiency in Python and familiarity with libraries or frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, or Scikit-learn
  • Understanding of backend development concepts such as APIs, microservices, and databases
  • Familiarity with JavaScript/TypeScript or Node.js is considered an asset
  • Exposure to REST APIs, SQL, and cloud platforms such as AWS or GCP through coursework, internships, or projects
  • Interest in AI/ML technologies, including LLMs and intelligent automation tools
  • Strong problem-solving skills and willingness to learn new technologies quickly
  • Good communication and collaboration skills in a team environment
  • Understanding of software development fundamentals, including testing, version control, and Agile development practices

Nice to Have

  • Experience working on personal, academic, or hackathon projects involving AI or data platforms
  • Familiarity with tools such as Docker, Git, Kafka, or cloud deployment workflows
  • Exposure to data engineering, ETL pipelines, or analytics systems
  • Interest in scalable distributed systems or event-driven architectures

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
