About the Role

We're looking for an AI Automation Engineer to identify, design, and implement AI-driven solutions that eliminate manual work and improve the speed, quality, and cost-efficiency of our business workflows. You'll work across teams to find automation opportunities and turn them into production-ready systems.

This position reports directly to the Deputy CTO.

Location: Carnaxide, Portugal (Hybrid – up to 8 days/month remote, 1st month fully on-site)

Key Responsibilities

  • Identify manual, repetitive, or error-prone workflows across departments and assess automation potential (AI-based or otherwise)
  • Design and build AI-powered automations using LLMs, agents, and scripting to reduce manual effort
  • Integrate AI capabilities into existing business tools and systems (HR, finance, etc.)
  • Build and maintain pipelines connecting AI models to internal data sources and third-party APIs
  • Prototype quickly, validate with stakeholders, then productionize successful automations
  • Monitor deployed automations for reliability, cost, and output quality - iterate as needed
  • Document workflows, decision logic, and system architecture for maintainability
  • Partner with business stakeholders to translate operational pain points into technical requirements
  • Evaluate and recommend AI solutions, models, and vendors (build vs. buy decisions)
  • Establish guardrails around AI-driven processes (error handling, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, audit trails)

Requirements

  • Proven experience building automation solutions (Scripting, workflow orchestration, or similar)
  • Hands-on experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) and prompt engineering
  • Programming skills in Python and/or JavaScript/TypeScript + Git
  • Experience integrating with REST APIs and working with webhooks/ event-driven systems
  • Familiarity with workflow and orchestration tools (n8n, Zapier, Airflow, etc.)
  • Ability to scope ambiguous problems into concrete technical solutions
  • Strong communication skills; able to work directly with non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience with agentic frameworks (CrewAI or similar)
  • Familiarity with vector databases and RAG architectures
  • Experience with MCP (Model Context Protocol) or similar tool-calling frameworks

Nice to Have

  • Background integrating AI into identity/IT systems tools (Okta, Active Directory) or dev tooling (GitHub, Jira, Slack, Datadog)
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and containerization (Docker)
  • Knowledge of prompt evaluation/testing frameworks
  • Experience with fine-tuning or evaluating smaller/local models for cost optimization

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary & full benefits
  • Hybrid work model as per Company’s Policy
  • Perks: lunch & transport allowance as per Company’s Policy
