Agentic AI Engineer
An Sovereign AI venture in Abu Dhabi is building agentic AI products and are hiring exceptional software engineers for a high-performance team.
Please do not blind-apply to this role. This is not a typical engineering role.
The pace is fast, the expectations are real, and the work is meaningful. If you have strong opinions about code quality, a GitHub profile you're proud of, and a genuine curiosity about where AI is heading — read on.
The Role
You will design, build, and ship production-grade software as part of a team developing an agentic AI platform. You'll work across the full stack, engage directly with AI-driven workflows, and be expected to pick up new technologies quickly and run with them.
What We're Looking For
- Strong generalist engineering skills with a web technology foundation
- A GitHub profile that speaks for itself — active, well-maintained, and showing clear evidence of ownership and technical depth
- Proven ability to ship real software, not just prototype it
- Comfortable operating in a high-intensity, fast-iteration environment
- Genuine interest in AI from a product and application perspective — prior AI experience is a plus, not a requirement
What We Value Above Everything Else
Portfolio over credentials. We care more about what you've built than where you studied or what certifications you hold. Show us your work.
Work Arrangement
- Full-time employee (hybrid, based in UAE), or
- Service provider / contractor (fully remote, 6-month contract with extension potential)
The stack is modern and evolving — TypeScript, React, NestJS, LangChain, vector databases, and desktop application frameworks among others. Familiarity is a bonus, but the right candidate can plug their gaps quickly.
To Apply
Share your CV and, more importantly, your GitHub profile or portfolio. Applications without a code portfolio will not be considered.
