It's a small, hands?on team where your code ships to production and real users from the first weeks.
We're looking for someone sharp, fast and hungry.
That matters more than seniority.
/p h3What You'll Do /h3 ul liBuild, ship and maintain LLM?powered features in production – agents, classifiers, RAG pipelines and AI search used by thousands of travelers every day /li liDesign and iterate on LangGraph workflows, prompts and tool?calling logic, turning business needs into reliable AI behavior /li liSet up and run evaluations: define test sets, track quality, latency and cost with tracing/observability tools (e.g. Langfuse), and use the data to decide what to improve /li liIntegrate AI services with WeRoad's product and data stack (APIs, databases, BigQuery, cloud infrastructure on GCP) /li liOptimize what's already live: token usage, model routing, prompt efficiency and response quality /li liWork closely with Product, Customer Care, Marketing and Data to spot new AI use cases and take them from prototype to production /li liOwn problems end-to-end: from understanding the need to shipping and monitoring the solution /li /ul h3What We're Looking For /h3 ul liProduct sense – you start from the problem, not the model.
You ask who it's for and what changes for them, and you know when not to use AI /li liExperience as a software engineer and/or product engineer, ideally in a product company or a fast growing startup /li liAgency and ownership – you don't wait for a perfect ticket.

/li liExperience using TypeScript or Python is a strong plus /li liYou've built things with AI – at work, in research or on your own.
We care about what you built and why /li liYou measure before you trust – a prompt or a model isn't done until you've checked how it behaves /li liClarity – You can explain technical choices to non-technical people /li liFluency in English /li /ul h3You will love working at WeRoad if /h3 ul liYou dream big, aim higher, and push yourself beyond limits you didn't think possible.
