About the role

About

We’re hiring an AI Engineer to build and ship intelligent systems that automate real-world workflows.

This is not a chatbot role.

You’ll be working on systems that make decisions, call APIs, manage state, and handle failures in production.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and build AI-driven systems that trigger real actions
  • Work with APIs, data pipelines, and external services
  • Handle complex workflows (multi-step processes, retries, edge cases)
  • Write clean, production-ready Python code
  • Make architecture decisions and ship fast

What We’re Looking For

Must-Have

  • Strong Python skills
  • Experience building real systems, not just demos
  • Understanding of:
    • APIs and integrations
    • State management
    • Error handling and retries
  • Ability to work independently in a startup environment

Strong Advantage

  • Experience with agent frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, etc.)
  • Experience with automation, workflows, or backend systems
  • Experience building tools that interact with external services

Important

This role is for builders.

If your experience is mainly:

  • Chatbots
  • Tutorials
  • Small scripts

This role will not be a fit.

Compensation

  • ₦600,000 - ₦1,000,000 (based on experience)
  • Performance bonus to discussed with the right candidate
  • Fully remote
  • High ownership, fast-moving environment

How to Apply

Send a short message answering:

  • What is the most complex system you’ve built? What did it do?
  • What challenges did you face and how did you solve them?
  • When can you start?

Include links to your work (GitHub, live systems, or demos).

We’re looking for people who can think, build, and ship — not just talk about it.
