As our first dedicated full-time AI Engineer, your mission is to own the end-to-end lifecycle of our generative AI features, taking them from MVPs to robust, production-grade services.
Reporting to the IT Lead, you will be the hands-on expert responsible for building and scaling our AI capabilities.
You will implement features like document summarization and Q&A chat, build MLOps on Azure, and establish the best practices that will become the foundation for our future AI team.
This is a senior Individual Contributor role: hands-on delivery first, with influence on architecture and future hiring.

5+ years in MLOps/Data (SaaS/cloud) with shipped production systems.
2+ years of specific experience with Generative AI (LLMs, prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, etc.).
Proven RAG delivery with production-grade evals (automatic + targeted human review), observability (traces, prompt/response logging with PII-safe redaction), and safeguards (prompt-injection/jailbreak mitigations).
Python + Docker; MLflow; Azure (Azure OpenAI or compatible), vector index (Azure AI Search/pgvector/Elastic), and async orchestration.
High ownership; challenges assumptions with data.
You are a strong communicator, fluent in English, and thrive in a remote-first, cross-functional environment.
Experience with Databricks, Ray, or Kedro is a strong plus.
You must be eligible to work in Portugal (i.e., be an EU citizen or hold a valid Portuguese work permit).

A stable, agile, and non-bureaucratic environment where you can focus on building impactful AI features.
A remote-first culture with flexible working hours designed for your best individual performance.
An exciting environment with many opportunities for personal and professional development.
Significant creative freedom for your ideas and initiatives.
A permanent, full-time employment contract.
Unlimited vacation days to ensure you stay energized and refreshed.
Company events to celebrate our collective successes.
