Platform AI Engineer

About us :

YunoJuno powers The Future of Work. What started as a platform to connect the best freelancers with forward-thinking companies has now redefined how businesses source and manage their entire contingent workforce. Whether it’s building a new department at a creative startup or building an enterprise solution for the world’s largest communications network, we use technology to power the freelance revolution.

About the role 📈 :

We’re looking for a delivery-focused AI engineer that would enjoy bringing the power of LLMs to a product that over the years has helped our freelancers clients deliver hundreds of thousands of successful projects together.

Our product team is small (~15) but focused and you'd be working alongside teams that put collaboration, the product transparency first. We run an environment where developers own their code all the way through to production and after the fact – always iteratively improving as we go.

We are looking for someone who considers themselves an AI-first engineer, someone that can not only help lead our product into the future by utilising LLMs in places that bring value but also someone that can get hands-on with actually implementing their vision in an existing product. Our stack is Python / Django / GraphQL on the backend, and TypeScript on the frontend.

Our team is remote-first and we work asynchronously where we can. However, we do have an office and if you’re in London we like to meet once a week. We are very open to remote-only developers, provided you are in a UK-friendly timezone (+ / -2hrs).

You'll spend your time :

• Deeply understanding our product, and planning showcasing where LLMs and future AI enhancement would best be placed to deliver actual value to our users.
• Leading by doing - demonstrating best practices in prompt engineering, RAG implementation, and AI system architecture through hands-on development while mentoring the team through practical examples and code reviews.
• Building and maintaining production-ready AI systems, including implementing monitoring solutions and setting up prompt evaluation frameworks.
• Driving practical AI implementation decisions, from model selection and cost optimisation to scaling solutions across our production environments.
• Ensuring we keep our DORA metrics amongst the best in the industry so that we keep our time-to-ship low, and developer happiness high.
• Working in a CI-backed environment, in small teams, in three-week cycles. We use Linear internally and follow their opinionated development process .
• Frequently self-reflecting as a team as to how we’re doing in some very honest retrospectives.
