As an AI Product Engineer, you will design and develop features at the intersection of product, engineering and artificial intelligence.

You will not simply write specifications: you will explore solutions, build functional prototypes, work with APIs and language models, test hypotheses, and collaborate directly with developers through to production.

Your work will include:

  • AI-powered features integrated into our product;

  • internal agents and tools used by our teams;

  • automated QA and user-feedback analysis;

  • improving our product design and development processes through AI.

  • building the best roadmap

This role works directly with the executive team. On a daily basis, you will collaborate with:

  • the CTO on architecture, feasibility, delivery and technical quality;

  • the CEO on product vision and strategic decisions;

  • the COO on customer use cases, deployment and operational challenges.

With few layers of management, short decision-making cycles and a high level of autonomy, you will be expected both to understand complex problems and to build practical solutions.

Your responsibilities

Design and develop AI-powered features

  • Identify use cases where artificial intelligence can deliver genuine value to users.

  • Design features powered by LLMs, agents, and retrieval- or generation-augmented systems.

  • Build functional prototypes to validate technical feasibility and user value quickly.

  • Integrate and orchestrate AI models and services through APIs.

  • Define the prompts, tools, context sources and workflows used by agents.

  • Work with the Engineering team to turn validated prototypes into robust, maintainable and scalable product features.

Build our internal agents

  • Design and improve agents for product discovery, specification writing, QA, ticket analysis and documentation.

  • Implement evaluation mechanisms to measure the quality and reliability of their outputs.

  • Test different approaches to prompting, context management, model selection and orchestration.

  • Define the necessary safeguards for security, confidentiality, cost control and hallucination management.

  • Document technical decisions, identified limitations and appropriate conditions of use.

Ensure technical and functional quality

  • Define acceptance criteria and validation plans for new features.

  • Design and carry out functional, exploratory and automated tests.

  • Test standard scenarios, edge cases and the non-deterministic behaviours specific to AI-powered features.

  • Analyse logs, reproduce issues and work with developers to identify their root causes.

  • Track bugs through to resolution and verify the quality of fixes.

  • Help improve test coverage and QA automation.

  • Measure feature quality following production release.

Connect product and engineering

  • Understand user needs through customer feedback, discussions with Support, ticket analysis and competitor research.

  • Translate these needs into technically realistic and clearly documented solutions.

  • Produce detailed specifications, user flows, mock-ups and prototypes that the Engineering team can work from.

  • Challenge functional and technical decisions by considering value, complexity, timelines and maintainability.

  • Contribute to roadmap decisions and communicate them clearly to stakeholders.

  • Occasionally mentor an apprentice on design and prototyping topics.

What we offer

  • A stable, self-funded SaaS company with a genuine product culture.

  • A strategic position combining product, engineering and artificial intelligence.

  • Direct access to the CEO, CTO and COO.

  • Short decision-making cycles and a high degree of ownership.

  • An environment where AI is already used in practice—not merely as a talking point.

  • Dedicated time, tools and budget to experiment, prototype and measure.

  • Significant autonomy in choosing approaches and solutions.

  • A hybrid working arrangement, with three days in the office and two days working remotely.

  • Prestigious customers in France and internationally.

  • A central role involving collaboration with every team in the company, without direct line-management responsibilities.
