Junior - Mid Product Engineer | AI Startup | Dublin (On-Site)
We are working with a well-funded AI startup in Dublin that is building autonomous AI agents designed to run real workflows.
The company recently raised ~$3M in pre‑seed funding and is now moving quickly into build mode. The team is currently extremely small, which means every engineer joining now will have real influence on the product and how it evolves.
They are looking for a product-focused engineer who enjoys building features, shipping quickly, and working closely with founders in an early‑stage environment.
This is not a research role and it is not a maintenance role. The focus is building real systems that are used by real customers.
The company works fully in‑office in Dublin city centre due to the early stage and highly collaborative nature of the team.
What You'll Be Working On
You will be helping to build a production AI platform that automates operational workflows that will affect peoples lives positively.
This includes systems that handle things like patient communication, appointment coordination, triage workflows and operational automation.
Typical work will include:
Building backend services and APIs (Python‑first environment)
Developing systems that integrate with real clinical and operational tools
Working with LLM‑powered workflows and AI‑assisted automation
Designing and implementing workflow logic and decision systems
Shipping product features end‑to‑end into production
Contributing to system reliability, logging and monitoring
Working closely with the founders and small engineering team to iterate quickly
You will see the direct impact of the systems you build.
What They're Looking For
This role suits an engineer early in their career who wants to accelerate their growth inside a serious product environment.
Strong candidates will typically have:
2-5 years of software engineering experience
Strong backend or full‑stack engineering fundamentals
Experience building real systems used by users
Comfort building APIs, services or product features end‑to‑end
Curiosity about AI and modern LLM‑powered systems
A mindset focused on building, shipping and learning quickly
The ability to work closely with founders in a fast‑moving environment
This is not a management role and it is not suited to engineers who prefer infrastructure‑only or platform‑only work.
Nice to have:
Experience with Python
Exposure to AI, ML or LLM integrations
Experience with React or modern frontend frameworks
Startup experience or strong side projects
Why This Role Stands Out
Early‑stage product with real momentum
Opportunity to work directly with experienced founders
Small team where your work has visible impact
Strong learning curve in applied AI systems
Equity participation from an early stage
Engineering culture focused on building and shipping
