- Assist with AI integrations such as OpenAI, embeddings, and simple automation flows
- Debug issues, fix bugs, and contribute to code quality
- Participate in code reviews and follow engineering best practices
- Support deployments on AWS, Docker, and Vercel when needed
- Work closely with product and design teams to turn requirements into clean implementations
Requirements
- Around 1 year of software development experience (internships included)
- Strong understanding of JavaScript / TypeScript
- Comfortable with Node.js / Express or React
- Familiarity with PostgreSQL or MongoDB
- Interest in AI-driven features
- Basic knowledge of Git and API development
- Good problem-solving mindset and willingness to ask questions
- Ability to work in a collaborative startup environment
What We Offer
- Learning-focused environment with mentorship from senior engineers
- Real involvement in building AI-based applications
- Opportunities to grow quickly and explore new technologies
- Friendly and collaborative startup culture
We value curiosity, teamwork, and a willingness to learn fast.
