About The Role

JOB TITLE: AI Engineer

LOCATION: Full remote or Hybrid (Milan)

TYPE OF CONTRACT: Full-Time Permanent

SALARY RANGE: up to 55K

You’ll join the Science Team, the team that owns everything AI at WeRoad: from the conversational assistant that talks to travelers across five European markets, to AI-powered search, personalisation algorithms, content and internal tools. It's a small, hands‑on team where your code ships to production and real users from the first weeks. We're looking for someone sharp, fast and hungry. That matters more than seniority.

What You’ll Do

- Build, ship and maintain LLM‑powered features in production – agents, classifiers, RAG pipelines and AI search used by thousands of travelers every day
- Design and iterate on LangGraph workflows, prompts and tool‑calling logic, turning business needs into reliable AI behavior
- Set up and run evaluations: define test sets, track quality, latency and cost with tracing/observability tools (e.g. Langfuse), and use the data to decide what to improve




- Integrate AI services with WeRoad's product and data stack (APIs, databases, BigQuery, cloud infrastructure on GCP)
- Optimize what's already live: token usage, model routing, prompt efficiency and response quality
- Work closely with Product, Customer Care, Marketing and Data to spot new AI use cases and take them from prototype to production
- Own problems end-to-end: from understanding the need to shipping and monitoring the solution

What We’re Looking For

- Product sense – you start from the problem, not the model. You ask who it's for and what changes for them, and you know when not to use AI
- Experience as a software engineer and/or product engineer, ideally in a product company or a fast growing startup
- Agency and ownership – you don't wait for a perfect ticket. You take something vague, make it concrete, ship it and own what happens after
- Engineering skills – you understand what it takes to run AI in production. Asked to ship agents serving 100k queries a month, you can reason about the system‑level trade‑offs: latency, cost, reliability, scalability.
- Experience using TypeScript or Python is a strong plus
- You've built things with AI – at work, in research or on your own. We care about what you built and why
- You measure before you trust – a prompt or a model isn't done until you've checked how it behaves




- Clarity – You can explain technical choices to non-technical people
- Fluency in English

You will love working at WeRoad if

- You dream big, aim higher, and push yourself beyond limits you didn't think possible. Challenges excite you, and you're hungry for the next win.
- You want to be part of a young, smart, and fun team that shares your passion for travel. You thrive in a community of bold thinkers and doers who challenge and inspire each other.
- You're an entrepreneur at heart, take responsibility from day one, and move fast to make things happen.
- You prefer adventure over routine and embrace the fast-paced, ever-changing ride of a scaleup. You make decisions quickly, test, learn, and adapt—because growth comes from action.
- You believe in the power of people. Our WeRoaders and Travel Coordinators are at the core of everything we do, and you're eager to be part of something bigger.

Benefits

- Performance-based bonus – A discretionary annual variable premio, based on performance and company results.
- A free WeRoad trip every year – Choose your dream destination with €1,400/year travel discount or travel even more as a Travel Coordinator.
- Trust-based holidays – We believe performance is driven by impact, not by hours at a desk. You are encouraged to take the time you need to recharge, beyond contractual minimums, within shared guidelines.
- Opportunities to learn – We invest in your growth with training and learning opportunities.
- New parent support – €3,600/year for 3 years after birth or adoption (or prorated if your child is under 3 when you start at WeRoad).
- Extra benefits – Meal vo
