Full-Time | In-Office | Growth Opportunity

About Us

We’re building a small, fast-moving team focused on practical AI agents that actually help people get real work done. You’ll work at the intersection of Claude, Python, and modern product design—creating and integrating AI agents into internal tools, customer-facing experiences, and creative workflows.

This is a full-time, on-site role (not remote), ideal for someone who’s been experimenting with LLMs and wants to grow into a strong applied AI/LLM engineer in a collaborative, hands-on environment.

As a Junior AI Developer (Claude AI), you will help build and refine AI agents powered by Claude, integrate them with Python back-ends and third-party APIs, and partner closely with designers and other stakeholders. You’ll have support from senior engineers, but you’ll also own smaller features end-to-end—from prototype to production.

If you want to be in the room, learn fast, and grow your skills every week, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

  • Implement and maintain Claude-powered workflows and agents using Python.
  • Call LLM APIs (Claude and others), parse responses, and integrate them into internal tools or web applications.
  • Collaborate with senior engineers to connect agents to external tools, REST APIs, databases, and other services.
  • Help with prompt design and iteration—testing prompts, contexts, and settings to boost reliability and quality.
  • Assist in building simple context-augmented / RAG-style workflows (feeding documents or data into LLMs in a controlled way).
  • Write clean, readable Python code with basic tests, logging, and error handling.
  • Work closely with designers and non-technical stakeholders to turn ideas into AI-powered features and tools.

What We’re Looking For

  • 1–2+ years of programming experience (professional, internship, or strong project work) with solid Python skills.
  • Some hands-on experience with large language models (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.)—projects, coursework, or personal experimentation all count.
  • Basic experience calling web APIs (REST/JSON) and handling JSON data in Python.
  • Familiarity with core LLM concepts: prompts, tokens, context windows, and issues like hallucinations.
  • Comfort using Git and working in a collaborative development workflow.
  • Strong desire to learn, experiment, and improve; clear communication and willingness to ask questions.
  • Ability and willingness to work on-site full time at our office location (this is not a remote or hybrid role).

Nice to Have

  • Direct experience with Claude (Claude API, Anthropic console, or Claude-based tools).
  • Projects involving chatbots, assistants, AI agents, or workflow automation.
  • Exposure to web frameworks (FastAPI, Flask, or a front-end framework like React/Next.js).
  • Experience working with or supporting designers, content teams, or UX.
  • Basic understanding of vector databases, embeddings, or RAG-style systems (helpful but not required).

What We Offer

  • Full-time, on-site position with weekly pay.
  • Competitive compensation and benefits (health, PTO, etc.).
  • A collaborative environment that encourages growth, experimentation, and cross-functional learning.
  • Direct mentorship from more experienced AI/LLM engineers on real-world projects.
  • The opportunity to work hands-on with the latest LLM tools and workflows and to grow quickly as the team and company expand.

How to Apply

Please send your resume, a brief introduction, and links to any relevant projects (GitHub, portfolio, or demos). If you’ve built anything with LLMs—even small experiments—highlight those. We’re especially interested in how you think, build, and learn.
