Junior AI Software Engineer

About the role

This is an early-career opportunity designed for new graduates, junior engineers and developers with up to two years of professional experience. You don't need years of commercial experience or a background at a major technology company – strong technical projects can demonstrate what you can do. You'll build real product features across AI agent workflows, APIs, developer tools and browser-based applications, working primarily with Python, JavaScript and TypeScript.

Responsibilities

• Build features for AI-powered products and developer tools
• Work with Python, JavaScript and TypeScript
• Develop and integrate APIs and browser-based functionality
• Build and improve AI agent workflows
• Use AI coding agents as part of your development process
• Review AI-generated code and identify potential issues
• Write automated tests using tools such as pytest and Playwright
• Test real user journeys and make sure features work end to end
• Investigate bugs and technical failures to identify root causes
• Build regression tests to prevent issues from recurring
• Work with Git and modern software-development workflows
• Improve the reliability and safety of AI-assisted software releases
• Collaborate with experienced engineers and receive direct technical mentorship

Requirements

This role is deliberately open to candidates at the beginning of their software engineering careers. You'll ideally have:

• 0–2 years of professional software engineering experience, although professional experience isn't essential
• Familiarity with Python, JavaScript or TypeScript
• An understanding of web development or APIs
• At least one meaningful software project you can discuss in detail
• Experience building, testing and debugging software
• Some hands-on experience using AI coding tools or coding agents
• A confidence investigating problems rather than simply applying quick fixes
• An interest in AI, developer tooling and agent-based software
• A strong written communication and attention to detail
• A willingness to take ownership of your work and learn quickly

Qualifications

New graduates are strongly encouraged to apply. Your experience could come from university coursework, internships, open-source projects, hackathons, personal projects or professional software development.
