AI Product Engineer - AI Applications & Platforms

Pracovní nabídka

Join us at Adastra AI, where we turn the latest AI technologies and intricate mathematical models into innovative business solutions. With us, you may find yourself unravelling how to maximize CO2 savings through optimal shipping container utilization, developing an AI-driven virtual psychotherapist, uncovering financial fraud, or enhancing cybersecurity measures for global organizations.

Get ready for exhilarating projects because our mission is to help businesses around the world and of all sizes harness the power of AI, spanning from startups to the largest global players. From the Czech Republic to diverse regions worldwide.

What technologies fuel our smart products and tailored solutions? Only the most advanced, including machine learning, optimization techniques, predictive analytics, generative AI, and beyond. Innovators and AI enthusiasts have our door always open.

We have proudly ranked twice among the fastest-growing companies in the Deloitte Technology Fast 50, and we won the Microsoft Digital Transformation Award.

What you’ll work on:

Are you an experienced back-end engineer who enjoys shipping and running software, and curious to see how AI products are built in practice? Join us and help turn AI models into platforms and products that companies rely on every day.

In this role you’ll build the engineering around our AI solutions: back-end services, APIs, integrations, cloud infrastructure and deployment pipelines. These are what turn a promising model into a reliable product. The AI model is one important piece of the puzzle, but most of your day-to-day is solid software engineering: clean service design, sensible data flows, automated deployment and systems that keep running. You’ll work on real projects across industries such as manufacturing, logistics, energy, finance and healthcare, with clients from startups to global enterprises.

You don’t need to be a data scientist or an ML researcher. Our data scientists and AI engineers build and tune the models, and you’ll work alongside them, learning how AI projects work as you go. You also don’t need to be a front-end specialist. When a product needs a UI, we build it with AI coding assistants, and that’s a skill you’ll pick up quickly with us. What matters most is that you’re a strong software engineer, you take ownership of what you build, and you’re curious about AI.

What we are looking for

• Around 3+ years of professional software development, mostly on the back-end
• Confident in at least one modern back-end language (e.g., Python, Kotlin, Java)
• Experience designing and building APIs and services, and working with databases (SQL and/or NoSQL)
• Hands-on experience with Docker and CI/CD, and with deploying and running applications in the cloud (Azure, AWS). You’ve shipped things and kept them running.
• A basic understanding of AI: what ML models and LLMs can and can’t do, and why AI projects involve more iteration and evaluation than classic software. Side projects and self-study count!
• You’re comfortable with AI coding assistants and happy to use them for front-end work. No front-end background needed.
• Ability to communicate in English in verbal and written form (minimum B2)
• Ownership mindset and enjoyment of working as part of a team

Nice to have

• Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep) or Kubernetes
• Experience building something with LLMs, e.g. RAG, agents, or API integrations (a hobby project counts!)
• Familiarity with monitoring, logging, or MLOps practices
• Some exposure to React/TypeScript
• Experience working directly with clients or stakeholders
• Projects you’d be proud to show us

Why you’ll love it here

We are highly motivated and always striving to exceed our limits. We approach our goals with a positive spirit and bring our best to every challenge. This drive enables us to help our clients break new ground in efficiency, competitive edge, and technology adoption. But the rewards of being part of our team go beyond just the thrill of achieving goals and making a visible impact.
Hands-on exposure to the newest GenAI and agentic technologies, and access to our team of 80+ AI experts

Beyond the team and projects, you’ll enjoy

• Informal atmosphere and many company events like seminars, tech talks, hackathons, office lunches and breakfasts, yoga classes, and team-building
• Attractive financial compensation and career growth
• Modern office with a great view, excellent coffee, a wide selection of teas and other drinks + fruit and snack boxes full of goodies
• Location in the Prague city centre (Karlín) + possibility of a hybrid setup
• 25 days of vacation to start with + extra day of vacation every year
• Multipass card / Multisport card
• Discounts with our partners (whether it's electronics, culture, or services)
