Join our newly formed AI Product Discovery team and work closely with skilled developers in building the next-generation search experience within Voyado Elevate.

About the Role and day-to-day

This role sits at the intersection of backend development, AI engineering, and product innovation.

Some of the things you and the team will be up to:

• Design and build AI agents for search and product discovery, using Java and/or Python.

• Work hands-on with prompt engineering and continuous optimization

• Map agent logic towards our existing search infrastructure

• Optimize for latency, scalability, and cost-efficiency (LLM usage, orchestration, caching, etc.)

• Evaluate new technologies in a rapidly evolving AI landscape

• Contribute to architecture discussions and long-term technical direction

• Write production-grade code and monitor performance in real environments

• Design and implement APIs

And when the time comes when you need a break, why don't you spend some time in the gym, tinker in our puzzle corner, or challenge our Åre office in Call of Duty on our PlayStation 5? 🎮

So, who are you?

You don’t just follow AI trends, you actively build with them. Agentic coding is already a natural part of how you develop software, and collaborating with LLMs feels as intuitive as writing code yourself. Writing prompts to generate, refactor, and reason about code is a natural extension of your engineering workflow.

At the same time, your interest goes beyond just experimenting as you thrive on building real products. You enjoy turning ideas into robust, production-ready systems and combining AI-native development patterns with solid software engineering principles.

And since this is a newly formed team, you’re excited not only to build the product but also to shape how we build it, driving evaluation frameworks, testing strategies for LLM-based systems, and establishing pragmatic, high-quality ways of working for AI-driven development.

Besides those personal skills, we believe you have the following:

• A Master's degree in Computer Science, or a comparable industry career

• Strong backend development experience

• Practical experience working with LLMs and AI APIs

• Experience or strong interest in prompt engineering and agent design

• An understanding of performance optimization and cost-aware system design

• And most importantly, passion for what you do, innovation & continuous improvement

If you are interested in algorithmic problem-solving, that's meritorious.
