Development Team Full-Time

AI Engineer

Cairo, Egypt Experience: 3+ years Posted: September 2026
Overview

About the Role

We are hiring an AI Engineer to put machine learning where it actually earns its place in our products: the assistant and routing behind Omni Channel, search and ranking across the travel platforms, document extraction in the Accounting System, and screening in HR. You take a use case from a rough idea to something running in production behind an API the rest of the platform can call — including the evaluation that says whether it is any good.

Responsibilities

What You'll Do

  • Build and ship AI features end to end: data, model or prompt, evaluation, API, and the monitoring that follows.
  • Design retrieval over our own content — product docs, tickets, invoices — instead of relying on what a model happens to remember.
  • Write the evaluation before shipping, so changing a prompt or a model is measured rather than argued about.
  • Serve models behind services the rest of the platform calls, inside a latency and cost budget you set and defend.
  • Do the unglamorous half: data cleaning, labelling workflows, and versioning of datasets and prompts.
  • Watch cost and drift in production, and act on them before someone else notices.
  • Keep personal data where it belongs — anonymisation, retention, and a clear answer on what leaves our infrastructure.
  • Work with the backend and product engineers so AI features are part of the product, not bolted on beside it.
Qualifications

What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years building ML or LLM-backed systems that reached production, not only notebooks.
  • Strong Python and the stack around it (PyTorch or TensorFlow, pandas, FastAPI or similar).
  • Practical LLM work: prompting, function calling, retrieval, embeddings and vector stores — and knowing when a smaller classic model is the better answer.
  • Comfortable with evaluation: building test sets, measuring quality and regression, and reporting the result honestly.
  • Deployment experience — containers, GPU or CPU serving, queues, and keeping the bill under control.
  • SQL and data modelling; you can get your own data out of Postgres without waiting for anyone.
  • Able to explain a trade-off to someone non-technical without either lying or lecturing.
  • Working English.
Bonuses

Nice to Have

  • Arabic NLP — dialect handling, RTL text, and content that mixes Arabic and English mid-sentence.
  • Travel domain modelling: search ranking, pricing, or fraud.
  • Speech or OCR pipelines in production.
  • MLOps tooling you set up yourself (MLflow, Weights & Biases, or equivalent).
  • Fine-tuning or distillation done for a measured reason, not by default.
Culture & Process

How We Work

AI here is held to the same bar as the rest of the code: it ships behind an interface, it has an evaluation, and it gets watched in production. Nothing goes live because a demo looked impressive. You sit with the engineers who own the product the feature lands in, so the trade-off between accuracy, latency and cost is a shared decision rather than a surprise.

Onboarding Path

Hiring Process

STEP 01

Application Review

We read your CV and anything you have shipped — papers, repos, systems in production (1-2 days).

STEP 02

Intro Call

Thirty minutes on a system you built and what you would do differently now.

STEP 03

Technical Task

A small problem on real data, with the evaluation as part of the deliverable.

STEP 04

Team Interview

Sixty minutes with backend and product engineers on trade-offs and failure modes.
