About the Role:
We're looking for an exceptional AI Automation Engineer to rapidly build working solutions for our internal teams — scripts, integrations, agents, and mini-services. This role is ideal for someone who can go from a request to a working solution in days, not sprints. You'll work closely with Finance, Legal, Operations, and Support to understand real problems and ship practical automation that people actually use. This is a hands-on builder role requiring both strong engineering fundamentals and fluency with modern AI tooling — someone who thrives on ambiguity, picks their own stack, and takes ownership from idea to adoption.
Your Role:
• Build ad-hoc LLM-powered tools: document processing, data extraction, classification, reporting, and internal chat interfaces.
• Integrate internal systems via APIs and MCP connectors (Jira, Confluence, Slack, BambooHR, CRM, databases).
• Take prototypes to a state where non-technical teams can actually use them, and hand off to support.
• Dig into how a process really works before automating it — half the job is understanding what people actually do, not just what they say they do.
What We're Looking For:
• Strong engineering background: Python (or TypeScript), APIs, SQL, git, deploying without hand-holding.
• Hands-on production experience with LLMs: prompting, structured output, RAG, tool calling, and handling model errors and quality evaluation.
• Uses AI coding agents daily as a core part of how you work (Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) — not occasionally, but as your default mode.
• Fully autonomous: you define the problem, choose the stack, and take it all the way to the end user.
Nice to Have:
• Experience in fintech or payments, with an understanding of compliance constraints and handling sensitive data.
• Experience with actual rollout, not just development — training users, gathering feedback, and measuring impact.
What We Offer:
• Competitive market rate salary and performance-based incentives.
• 22 days annual leave with an additional 6 company days, plus bank holidays.
• Comprehensive health insurance plans.
• Maternity & Paternity leave support.
• Extensive benefits program.
• Flexible work schedule and remote work options.
• Modern offices and co-working spaces across 6 countries.
• Working equipment.
• Professional development and training opportunities.
• Opportunity to shape the initiatives you’re working on.
• Diverse and friendly team.
• We are open-minded to new ideas.
