About the Company

At WorkMotion, we are building a world without borders, empowering businesses to build teams without limits. Our remote-first team spans across the globe, providing smart, flexible workforce solutions. We are fast-paced, people-driven, and globally connected, offering endless opportunities for growth and innovation.

Responsibilities

Design, build, and ship production AI services in Python (FastAPI, async), including multi-agent systems and LLM-powered pipelines for document processing, chatbots, and CRM automation.
Develop and maintain MCP servers and integrations that give agents safe, well-scoped access to company systems.
Build retrieval and ingestion pipelines: document parsing, chunking, embeddings, and vector search, over AWS storage.
Evaluate and improve quality through benchmarks, regression tests, replay of real cases, and prompt/playbook iteration, with cost and latency in view.
Operate what you build: containerized deployments, observability, authentication, and PII safe handling of employee and customer data.
Contribute to AI governance by keeping lifecycle records, documenting risks and decisions, and supporting different ISO evidence.

Requirements

Core Skills:
- 3+ years of software engineering experience (backend/Python), with at least 1 year building LLM-based applications in production.
- Strong Python: FastAPI, Pydantic, SQLAlchemy/Alembic, async programming, pytest.
- Hands-on with LLM tooling: agent frameworks (e.g., Google ADK), LiteLLM or similar gateways, tool/function calling, MCP, and RAG with vector databases.
- Comfortable with Docker, AWS (S3 and related), CI/CD, and observability tooling.
- Critical competencies: pragmatic problem-solving, written clarity, ownership, and sound judgment on data privacy and security.
- Language: fluent English (written and spoken).
Bonus Points If You Bring:
- Experience with Salesforce, Atlassian APIs, or HR/payroll/global-employment domain data.
- Experience running or evaluating closed-weight and/or open-weight models or with PII anonymization and AI governance frameworks (GDPR, ISO 42001, EU AI Act).
- Experience with Python/Node.js/TypeScript, as some MCP tooling is built that way.
- A track record of building evaluation harnesses or benchmarks for LLM systems.
