We believe that by leveraging the power of AI, we can make high-quality chess coaching accessible to everyone.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a talented and passionate Senior AI Engineer to join our team and lead the development of the next generation of our AI-powered learning tools.

  • Collaborate closely with our internal chess experts to translate their deep domain knowledge into technical requirements and effective AI-driven features.

  • Develop backend systems to process and analyze chess data at scale.

  • Build and maintain data pipelines for training and evaluating machine learning models for tasks such as personalization and content recommendation.

  • Own the full lifecycle of AI features, from initial proof-of-concept and prototyping to deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a strong background in backend development (e.g., Python, , Go, or similar).

  • 2+ years of proven, hands-on experience building and deploying AI/ML-powered applications, with a specific focus on using LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic).

  • Deep understanding of prompt engineering, and experience using LLMs for complex text generation, analysis, and summarization tasks.

  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to navigate ambiguity and make sound architectural decisions with a high degree of autonomy.

  • Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset.

Preferred Qualifications (Bonus Points)

  • Experience with traditional machine learning frameworks (e.g., Scikit-learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow) for developing predictive models or recommendation systems.

  • Familiarity with MLOps principles and tools for deploying and monitoring models in production.

  • Experience working in a startup or fast-paced EdTech environment.

  • An interest in chess is a plus, as it will aid in understanding the product's domain. However, deep expertise is not required, as you will be working closely with our team of tech-savvy chess masters.
