In low-risk cases, you will experiment with a high level of autonomy. In more sensitive processes, you will introduce permissions, traceability, validations, action limits, data isolation, and human oversight. You will turn the lessons learned from each project into reusable components, evaluations, and patterns, helping make every new agent faster and more reliable to build than the previous one. The goal will not simply be to launch a demo, but to demonstrate that an agent can improve a real-world operation in a measurable, reliable, and responsible way. You are who we are looking for if you have… A university degree in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or another related scientific, technical, or quantitative discipline. At least five years of experience in AI Engineering, Applied AI, Software Engineering, Product Engineering, Data, or a similar technical role. A strong programming foundation, particularly in Python. Experience building applications with language models and an understanding of concepts such as context engineering, tool calling, structured outputs, RAG, evaluations, and human-in-the-loop systems. Experience working with APIs, databases, authentication, testing, Git, and cloud-deployed services. The ability to turn an ambiguous problem into an architecture and an initial implementation without needing a fully finalized specification. The ability to use data, metrics, traces, and evaluations to analyze and improve the behavior of an AI system. Strong engineering judgment when balancing quality, latency, cost, security, maintainability, and development speed. An interest in working closely with users and the ability to communicate clearly in Spanish and English with both technical and business stakeholders. You will stand out if you have… Experience deploying agents or language-model-based products used by real users. Experience with tool calling, RAG, MCP servers, vector databases, workflows, or agent architectures. Experience building evaluation, observability, monitoring, or human-in-the-loop systems for AI applications. Knowledge of cloud infrastructure, containers, CI/CD, queues, or event-driven architectures. Experience using AI-assisted development tools to build, test, and maintain software. Experience working with sensitive data, access controls, traceability, or AI systems in regulated environments such as insurance or insurtech. Why Tuio? At Tuio, we believe in end-to-end ownership. Everyone is responsible for understanding the problem, proposing a solution, building it, testing it with users, and measuring its results. We prioritize speed and learning, but we do not confuse speed with a lack of judgment. We accept technical debt when it helps us validate a hypothesis, and we know how to recognize when a solution needs to become more robust before its scope is expanded. Artificial intelligence is ## Description TUIO KEEPS GROWING Do you enjoy understanding real-world problems alongside the people who face them and building AI systems capable of solving them? Do you enjoy experimenting with language models, designing agents, and taking prototypes into production? You will join the AI & Data team to build and deploy artificial intelligence solutions across different areas of Tuio. You will work closely with business teams and collaborate with colleagues from AI, Data, and Engineering, as well as with our AI Managers whenever the project requires it. You will be involved from the very beginning in understanding the problem and will take technical ownership of the solution. We are looking for an Applied AI Engineer with a strong software foundation and a builder mindset, capable of combining models, context, data, tools, and code to: Design, build, evaluate, deploy, monitor, and improve. As a general guideline, the role will be approximately 20% discovery and operational work and 80% AI Engineering. What will your day-to-day work at Tuio look like? You will work directly with business teams to understand the processes, decisions, systems, data, exceptions, and risks involved in each use case. You will design the architecture of agent-based systems, selecting the most appropriate models, patterns, and components for each problem. You will build applications powered by language models using context engineering, tool calling, structured outputs, RAG, and multi-step workflows. You will experiment with models, instructions, and architectures to optimize the balance between quality, latency, cost, and reliability. You will connect agents to internal and external tools through APIs, MCP servers, databases, and SaaS platforms. You will rapidly create prototypes and evolve them into solutions used with real-world data, systems, and use cases. You will design evaluations, test cases, and regression tests, and instrument agents to monitor their traces, errors, latency, and costs. You will implement reliability and control mechanisms such as permissions, validations, retries, fallbacks, action limits, and escalation to a human. You will deploy and operate solutions using testing, version control, CI/CD, and sound engineering practices. You will turn the lessons learned from each deployment into reusable components, evaluations, and patterns for future Tuio agents. You will become embedded in one of Tuio's priority domains to understand its processes, systems, and key technical challenges. You will take responsibility for one or two use cases and bring at least one of them from prototype to a pilot with real users, defining its evaluations, observability, and next steps for scaling. Your day-to-day work will combine close collaboration with the business, end-to-end technical ownership, and a way of building based on experimenting quickly, measuring rigorously, and strengthening controls whenever the level of risk requires it. You will be involved from the discovery stage and work directly with the people who understand and operate each process. Depending on the project, you will collaborate with AI Managers and colleagues from Business, AI, Data, and Engineering to define and evolve the solution. You will take end-to-end technical ownership, including AI architecture, code, integrations, evaluations, deployment, observability, and reliability. In some projects, you will also play a significant role in discovery and functional design. You will build small initial versions to validate hypotheses with real users, measure outcomes, and iterate quickly. We will consciously accept technical debt when it helps us learn, but we will strengthen the architecture, testing, and security before scaling. You will treat agents as production systems: you will version instructions, tools, and evaluations; analyze traces and failure modes; measure quality, latency, and cost; and test every change against representative cases. You will adapt the speed of development ## Related Videos - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Kubernetes and Microservices with Multi-Model Databases](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/382-kubernetes-and-microservices-with-multi-model-databases) - [API Design - Getting Started](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/33-api-design-getting-started) - [Agentic employees in world's most downloaded FinTech app](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100123-agentic-employees-in-world-s-most-downloaded-fintech-app) - [Branch your database like your code: How schema changes and pull requests go hand in hand](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/350-branch-your-database-like-your-code-how-schema-changes-and-pull-requests-go-hand-in-hand) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou - Making AI understandable for all in production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/475-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou-making-ai-understandable-for-all-in-production) - [What is Agentic Programming and Why Should Developers Care?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/625-what-is-agentic-programming-and-why-should-developers-care) - [Never delegate the understanding](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/749-never-delegate-the-understanding) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development)
