  • Own projects end-to-end, from problem discovery through production deployment and monitoring.
  • Work alongside product and engineering leaders to deliver customer impact.
  • Design AI systems and solve ambiguous problems without detailed specifications.
  • Develop evaluation approaches to measure hallucinations, groundedness, and system trustworthiness.

  • Experience building customer support or conversational AI systems is preferred.
  • Familiarity with low-resource language challenges is preferred.
  • Experience building in high-risk agent environments such as finance is a plus.
  • Fluency in English; bilingual French is a strong bonus.
  • Prior experience with Python 3, GraphQL, Kotlin/Jetpack, Swift/SwiftUI, TypeScript/React, Postgres/CockroachDB, GCP/Terraform, or Kubernetes is a strong plus but not required.
  • Must be based in a talent hub country or operating market, including the US, UK, Spain, Kenya, Ghana, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, or Burkina Faso.
  • Must be willing to travel to an operational market at least once a year.

Benefits
