Job Description

We are now hiring our first Senior AI Product Engineer - first and foremost, a senior software engineer who can architect, build, operate, and own production-grade backend systems that use agentic workflows and LLMs. This is not a research role and not a chatbot feature role. You will be building reliable, scalable backend services that run in production and deliver real-time intelligence to thousands of operators.

Job Responsibility

  • Owning production AI systems, including reliability, monitoring, alerting, and on-call responsibility
  • Designing and building backend services that incorporate multi-step agentic workflows
  • Turning prototypes and ideas into shipped, customer-facing features, then iterating based on real usage
  • Designing agent workflows with explicit handling of failures, retries, and edge cases
  • Integrating LLM-powered capabilities into core Nory workflows in collaboration with Product and Data
  • Making pragmatic trade-offs around latency, cost, accuracy, and user trust
  • Establishing best practices for how Nory builds and operates agentic systems at scale

Requirements

  • Strong backend engineering fundamentals
  • Production experience with agentic workflows
  • Ownership of long-lived systems
  • Applied LLM experience in real products
  • High autonomy in ambiguous environments
  • Product and commercial mindset

Nice to have

  • Background in operational, B2B, or data-heavy products
  • Experience operating AI systems at scale or in high-traffic environments
  • Experience helping define internal engineering standards or best practices
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure, data platforms, or analytics pipelines

What we offer

  • Remote-first working environment
  • Competitive salary range depending on experience
  • Meaningful equity
  • 35 days of paid leave per year (including bank holidays)
  • Comprehensive private health insurance via Irish Life (Ireland) and Axa (UK)
  • Enhanced parental leave and baby loss support
  • Learning & development culture – €1000 personal annual budget + quarterly book budget
  • €250 home office workspace budget
  • Regular team offsites & socials
  • Work from anywhere for up to 3 months of the year
  • Offices in either London, Dublin or Spain

Requirements
  • 6+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a proven track record of shipping scalable production systems
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs in real products — including prompt design, context management, evaluation, and understanding real-world limitations (hallucinations, latency, cost, reliability)
  • Strong backend development skills in Python, Kotlin, or Java, with experience designing and evolving service-level logic and infrastructure
  • Proven ability to own features end-to-end across backend and frontend systems
  • You think like a builder — ideally a former founding engineer or founder — with a strong instinct for shipping what truly moves the product and the company forward
  • You’re drawn to agent-native architecture and believe this is where software is heading. You’re excited to rethink codebases, APIs, and documentation so AI agents can reliably operate and scale
  • You use AI tools daily (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) and treat them as a core part of your engineering workflow — constantly experimenting, refining prompts, and pushing them to meaningfully increase your speed and output
  • Comfortable working in distributed systems and event-driven architectures (e.g., queues, async processing, service-to-service communication)
  • Extra credit: Experience building agentic systems is highly valued. Alternatively, deep hands-on work with advanced LLM workflows (tool use, multi-step reasoning, memory, orchestration) and a clear understanding of their trade-offs — along with the drive and technical maturity to quickly evolve toward agentic architectures

  • Build AI-first product features

  • Make our codebase AI-ready: define clear module boundaries, improve API contracts, add semantic context, and build the structured documentation that makes AI agents more effective across every repo
  • Optionally join a team building LLM-powered workflows that process and categorize unstructured feedback from multiple sources, turning it into actionable user insights
  • Drive discovery and experimentation across different domains by building MVPs and POCs, discussing findings with engineers and product teams, and shaping execution plans
  • Collaborate closely with product managers and designers to shape what we build, not just how we build it
  • Act as a knowledge multiplier, sharing what you learn across and beyond your team to raise the bar for everyone
