Full Description

Junior AI Engineer is responsible for finding and fixing manual bottlenecks across the business. This role is not just about writing code; it is about understanding how our business functions and using technology to make every staff member faster and more effective.

Responsibilities:

* Process Mapping: Understand departmental workflows to find "high-friction" tasks (e.g., manual data entry, document sorting, or repetitive emailing).

* AI Automation: Build and deploy Python scripts, LLM-powered assistants, and low-code tools to handle these tasks automatically.

* System Integration: Connect our core systems with AI tools to ensure data flows seamlessly without human intervention.

* Sandbox Development: Rapidly prototype new ideas in a safe environment before moving them into live production.

* Cross-Functional Support: Act as a technical translator, helping non-technical teams understand how to use AI to solve their specific daily challenges.

* Collaborative Coding: Participate in weekly "Prompt Syncs" to share successful automations, reusable code snippets, and lessons learned with the wider strike team.

* Accuracy & Ethics: Monitor AI outputs to ensure they are accurate, unbiased, and compliant with company data security policies.

Requirements:

* Technical aptitude (engineering/finance/technology) and less than 2 years of work experience.

* Proficiency in Python and/or strong interest in Generative AI and API integrations.
