Job description

Volve is re-imagining construction management with AI. Projects generate massive, fragmented documentation; Volve evaluates complex tenders, specs, contracts and more to surface risks, requirements, and red flags. From assessing bids against tender requirements to analysing contractual changes across contracts and their supplements, we enable customers to act faster with less risk. We're seeking a skilled and passionate AI Engineer to join our growing team, someone excited to work at the frontier of what's possible when AI tools like Claude Code collapse the gap between backend intelligence and shipped product. The Role: Own the Feature, End to End As an AI Engineer at Volve, you'll take full ownership of features - from designing and building the AI backend through to shipping a working web experience. You won't be handing off to a web developer and waiting. Using AI coding tools (primarily Claude Code) and Figma designs as your spec, you'll connect the AI backend to the frontend yourself, delivering features that are production-ready or close to it. The critical interface you own is the connection between the AI backend and the web layer. That's where the real complexity lives - the frontend itself is largely handled by AI tooling working from Figma, leaving you free to focus on what matters: building robust AI pipelines and making sure they're properly wired into the product. You'll work directly with designers and product - no web developer bottleneck, no translation layer., Build and Own AI Pipelines: Design, develop, and maintain AI pipelines that process large-scale unstructured data - the core of what Volve does. Ship Full Features End to End: Use Claude Code and Figma designs to implement frontend functionality yourself, owning the full loop from AI backend to working web feature. Own the Web * AI Connection: Architect and maintain the integration layer between the AI backend and the React/TypeScript frontend. This is where your ownership is most critical. Design Scalable Python Backends: Write modular, efficient, and maintainable Python following best practices - built for reliability and long-term scale. Implement Knowledge Graph Systems: Contribute to the development of knowledge graph components for organising and relating project-critical data. Maintain Code Quality: Apply rigorous testing, unit, integration, and performance, to keep the system reliable and fast., You're the Driver: We hire great people and get out of their way. Own your work, push it to completion, and don't wait to be told what to do. Take Ownership: Be proactive and hands-on. If something needs doing - code it, write it, fix it. Don't pass the buck. Ship Fast & Iterate: Done beats perfect. Get things in front of users quickly, learn, and improve. Speed is a feature. Delight Users: Care deeply about the experience we deliver. Give real, high-quality support, don't just route tickets. Be Transparent & Direct: Say what you mean. Communicate openly, internally and externally. We build trust by operating in public. Skip the Overhead: Unnecessary collaboration slows everyone down. Trust people to drive their work without needing sign-off from a crowd. Be Opinionated & Uncorporate: Have a point of view. Be direct, be human, and don't be boring. We're not a corporate persona. Default Alive: Build something that lasts. We're focused on sustainability and profitability, not chasing growth for its own sake. What We Offer Cutting-Edge Technology: Work at the frontier of AI tooling - this role is built around what's possible today, not two years ago Real Ownership: Ship features end to end, with minimal handoffs and maximum autonomy Collaborative Environment: Work directly with designers and product a tight loop with the people closest to the customer Growth Opportunities: Develop your skills in a fast-growing company where the role will evolve with you Competitive Compensation: Competitive salary with equity options Purpose: Contribute to a mission that improves one of the world's largest and most impactful industries Volve is the controller of your personal data for the purposes of this recruitment. Amby AS acts as the processor of your personal data, except when you agree to join our Talent Pool, in which case Amby also becomes the data controller. We process your personal data to manage and conduct the recruitment process. You have the right to access your data, request rectification, erasure, and restriction of processing, as well as the right to object to processing and data transfer. For a more detailed understanding of how we handle your data, the purposes of processing, and your rights, please refer to Amby's . Volve is the tender and pre-construction intelligence platform for construction. Trusted by leading construction firms across the Nordics and Europe, Volve uses AI to turn full project document sets into decision-ready outputs. Teams interact with information, not documents, using advanced analytics to support key decisions across the tendering portfolio: price risk and surface obligations before commitment, develop and optimize bids to win more, compare incoming subcontractor offers on consistent ground, and track scope and changes against the contract baseline through execution..

Requirements

You're primarily a strong AI/backend engineer, but you're comfortable enough with React and TypeScript to use Claude Code effectively - reading, directing, and verifying AI-generated frontend code. You don't need to be a frontend expert; you need to be someone who can use AI tooling to close the last mile without needing a developer to do it for you. You likely bring: Strong Python development experience in a data-driven or AI-focused environment Experience with NLP techniques; Knowledge Graphs are a strong plus Working familiarity with React and TypeScript - enough to use and direct Claude Code confidently Comfort reading Figma designs and translating them into implementation specs for AI tooling Familiarity with cloud platforms (we use GCP) Experience writing robust unit and integration tests A bias toward ownership - you'd rather close the loop yourself than wait for someone else
