Sr AI Engineer | Remote - Europe | TS/Vue/NodeJS

As a Senior AI Engineer, you'll drive intelligent features that redefine how users build automations. You'll build AI-powered capabilities, from natural language input to smart suggestions, that make creating workflows faster and more intuitive.

You'll collaborate across engineering, product, and design to bring generative AI and LLM-based enhancements into the core user experience. You'll improve existing AI integrations, develop new ones, and shape how AI powers our product.

You'll work across the entire AI feature lifecycle:

• Architect and implement AI-powered capabilities: code generation, intelligent node creation, and workflow optimization
• Integrate LLM APIs and embedding models for text-to-workflow and natural language code suggestions
• Design and iterate on prompts to improve model output and user experience
• Build internal tooling, evaluation benchmarks, and automated testing for AI components
• Collaborate closely with other engineers to ensure AI features are reliable, performant, and scalable
• Balance experimentation with impact: ship quickly while focusing on user value
• Stay current with advances in LLMs, prompt frameworks, and developer tools - and bring those insights into our roadmap, + US: Short-term & long-term disability insurance, life & AD&D coverage, and additional hospital coverage.
• Career growth - We hire rising stars who grow with us! You'll get €1K (or equivalent) per year to spend on courses, books, events, or coaching to level up your skills.
• A passionate team - We love our product, and we prove it with regular hackathons where we see who can build the coolest thing with it!
• Remote-first - Our team works remotely across Europe, with regular off-sites for team bonding. Some roles, like sales in the US, are hybrid-please check the job description.
• Giving back - We're big fans of open source, and you'll get $100 per month to support projects you care about.
