Define tool schemas, manage state, implement retry/fallback logic, and ensure human-in-the-loop controls where required. - LLM integration: Integrate LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, open-source models) via APIs and SDKs. Manage prompt engineering, context-window strategies, structured output parsing, streaming, caching, and cost optimization. - Generative media API integration: Connect and orchestrate external AI creative tools such as Arcads, Seedance, Runway and more into automated content pipelines. - Business process automation: Identify, propose, and implement AI-native automations across the organization from content creation workflows to data enrichment, QA, customer support, and internal tooling. - Cloud & DevOps: Collaborate closely with our Platform team to deploy and operate services on AWS. Manage observability, and cost governance for AI workloads. - Collaboration: Work closely with product, design, and business stakeholders to translate ambiguous business needs into concrete AI-powered solutions. Benefits - Ambitious people, real ownership. Work with driven people who challenge each other openly and take full ownership of meaningful parts of the business. - A company that prioritizes growth, performance, and impact. Comfort isn’t the goal here, progress is. We set a high bar and focus on delivering real results. - A highly ambitious environment with a clear goal. Building the next European tech challenger is not just an idea, it is our mission.
