The challenge
As a Senior AI Specialist Engineer, you will play a key role in scaling Jotelulu's codebase and integrating AI capabilities into our cloud platform. Your mission will be to design and implement scalable, high-performance solutions, including APIs, AI architectures, and generative AI integrations, enhancing both customer experience and internal processes. You will work on building AI-driven features such as recommendation systems, predictive models, RAG pipelines, and AI agents, while ensuring code quality, reliability, and performance.

You will be part of a full-stack development team responsible for building and maintaining customer-facing products at cloud provider scale. The team develops self-service IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS solutions, integrating modern AI capabilities directly into the platform. Working in a fast-paced, collaborative, and agile environment, you will contribute to a growing engineering team focused on scalability, stability, and continuous improvement.

Collaboration will be essential. You will work closely with a multidisciplinary engineering team, as well as product and program management stakeholders, to define requirements and deliver impactful features. You will also interact with internal teams to investigate and resolve issues, ensuring a reliable and secure platform while contributing to engineering best practices and team culture.
