Profile overview

• The Applied AI Engineer role is uniquely designed for practical builders who are deeply passionate about constructing robust, AI-native systems within a comprehensive fintech ecosystem.

• This is distinctly not a research-restricted position; it demands engineering-focused professionals who excel at translating advanced artificial intelligence concepts into functional, high-impact workflows.

• The successful candidate will spearhead the creation of automated systems that directly optimize business products, reduce manual operational overhead, and streamline complex financial applications.

• Engineers in this position will take complete production ownership of AI-powered workflows, conversational assistants, autonomous agents, and enterprise-grade automation frameworks.

• The role requires seamless cross-functional collaboration with product management, engineering teams, operations personnel, and diverse business units to map manual tasks to automated engines.

• The profile demands a strong understanding of how to connect large language models with internal corporate data warehouses, secure APIs, unstructured documents, and business systems.

• Ideal candidates possess a balanced engineering mindset, demonstrating great clarity regarding where artificial intelligence provides genuine business value versus where rule-based logic is ideal.

• Ultimately, BJAK is seeking an agile, fast-paced technical builder who thrives on prototyping rapidly, testing with real operators, and deploying production-ready AI solutions to the cloud.

Qualifications

• Candidates must possess a highly resilient foundation in core software engineering principles, with a strong preference for deep backend systems development expertise.

• Advanced proficiency in Python programming and extensive hands-on experience building web application backends, data pipelines, or microservices is highly required.

• Practical, verifiable experience working directly with Large Language Model (LLM) APIs, building autonomous agents, and deploying Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures.

• Demonstrated capability in developing complex workflow automation pipelines and integrating varied artificial intelligence tooling into production systems.

• Comprehensive technical understanding of modern AI operational metrics, including systematic evaluation frameworks, precise accuracy benchmarking, latency optimization, and cost management.

• Deep knowledge of algorithmic failure modes, security privacy considerations, guardrails implementation, and the design of reliable fallback execution flows.

• Proven ability to successfully handle, process, parse, and clean messy, unstructured, real-world data and highly non-standard business operational processes.

• Previous professional exposure or project familiarity within the fields of fintech, insurance technology, customer support automation, CRM systems, or operations automation is a strong advantage.

• Exceptional professional communication skills in English, as it serves as the primary working language across all of BJAK’s highly distributed international product teams.

• Exceptional capability to move rapidly from abstract conceptualization and prompt testing to robust, well-monitored, production-grade software code.
