We care deeply about developer experience and engineering velocity.

We ship fast (around 20 deployments per day) maintain short feedback loops and are fully aligned with Accelerate principles: small batch sizes continuous delivery strong automation and a culture of learning.

As we accelerate the transition toward an AI-augmented company we are opening a new exploratory high-potential role.

About the role

Were looking for a Junior Software Engineer with an AI-native mindset someone who naturally uses AI tools to accelerate their work explore ideas fast and solve problems creatively.

Your mission: Use AI as a force multiplier across engineering and the business.

This means:

- making engineers more productive

- improving internal processes

- simplifying operational workflows

- and exploring any use case where AI can save time or reduce complexity.

This is not an LLM product or ML research role. Its a builder role: someone who codes prototypes experiments and ships internal improvements that genuinely make life easier for the team.

Because this is exploratory were intentionally keeping the scope broad to discover exceptional AI-fluent junior talent.

What youll do

- Use AI tools (Cursor ChatGPT Claude Copilot) to boost engineering velocity

- Build small internal tools that automate repetitive tasks or streamline workflows

- Improve developer experience (scripts bots CLI tools code generators documentation helpers)

- Explore AI opportunities across the business (Ops Sales Customer Success)

- Prototype quickly iterate fast and validate ideas with real users

- Spot inefficiencies and propose pragmatic AI-assisted solutions

- Contribute to backend frontend or internal tooling depending on your strengths

- Creating small internal dashboards or assistants for Ops or Sales

- Streamlining onboarding through AI-assisted documentation

- Improving CI/CD workflows using AI-generated configs or checks

- Code search assistants

- Tools that reduce cognitive load for engineers or operators

The spirit is: identify friction reduce it ship.
