ABOUT THE COMPANY
A rapidly scaling fintech platform is hiring an AI Engineer to help integrate AI-powered functionality into its core infrastructure, internal tooling, and customer-facing systems. The company provides mission-critical payments orchestration infrastructure to enterprise clients, and is now investing in AI-driven enhancements to drive productivity, automation, and intelligent user experiences. With a strong focus on security, scalability, and innovation, the business operates a fully remote model with a collaborative, impact-led engineering culture.

ABOUT THE ROLE
This is a highly hands-on engineering role focused on integrating existing AI/LLM technologies-not building new models. The AI Engineer will work across multiple functions to craft effective prompt strategies, deploy AI workflows, and embed third-party APIs like OpenAI, Claude, and Hugging Face into internal tools and product features. You'll operate at the intersection of product, engineering, and ops, identifying use cases and delivering practical solutions that improve developer productivity and customer experience.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Integrate third-party AI APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Claude, Hugging Face) into both internal tools and end-user products
Build intelligent workflows for summarization, query handling, documentation, support automation, and more
Design prompt chains and task-specific prompt engineering solutions for various business functions
Collaborate with engineering, product, and operations to prioritize high-impact use cases
Write maintainable, production-ready code using Python, NodeJS, or related backend technologies
Ensure all AI-related features meet company standards for security, compliance, and performance
Continuously evaluate new AI tooling and APIs to drive further opportunities

REQUIREMENTS

Hands-on experience integrating AI/LLM APIs into production environments
Strong proficiency in prompt engineering and chaining logic
Solid backend engineering foundation, ideally in Python or NodeJS
Familiarity with frameworks such as LangChain, Pinecone, or equivalent
Strong problem-solving focus and delivery-oriented mindset
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, agile product environment
Clear communicator and strong cross-functional collaboration skills

NICE TO HAVE

Experience with orchestration tools like Airflow or Temporal
Exposure to vector databases or semantic search
Experience using AI to build internal developer productivity tools
Knowledge of RAG (retrieval augmented generation) pipelines or customer support AI systems

WORKING MODEL

Remote-first with flexibility across European time zones
Flat structure and fast decision-making environment
Direct exposure to product and leadership teams
Role offers autonomy and the chance to lead AI adoption from the ground up

BENEFITS & CULTURE

Competitive salary and remote flexibility
High-ownership role with direct business impact
Fast-paced, collaborative fintech culture
Opportunity to define and drive AI use cases in a modern engineering team

If you're passionate about applied AI and want to work at the core of a growing fintech's technical evolution, this is a rare opportunity to own and deliver high-leverage systems from day one. #J-18808-Ljbffr
