Founding AI Engineer

Jarvio is the AI agent powering eCommerce brands. Think Cursor meets Lovable, custom fit to the data-heavy eCommerce industry.

 

We believe selling on eCommerce channels shouldn’t mean juggling ten dashboards, drowning in SOPs, or stitching together five tools just to launch a product. So we’re building Jarvio: an AI-native workflow engine that lets brands automate everything from inventory and listings to competitor tracking and ads, using natural language.

 

We’re backed by angels from Amazon, Target, Meta, MongoDB, Wayflyer, and others – as well as an Accel Scout Fund, Darius Cubed, Baseline VC, NDRC, and Enterprise Ireland. We just raised $1.8M and are gearing up to launch.

 

Requirements:

 

•⁠ ⁠5+ years shipping production-grade systems.

•⁠ ⁠You implement new LLM frameworks from scratch – then make them faster, cleaner, and more accurate.

•⁠ ⁠Strong systems thinking – you’ve built distributed or event-driven architectures.

•⁠ ⁠Proven track record building and testing agents with:

•⁠ ⁠Custom planning/execution logic

•⁠ ⁠Clear metrics (accuracy, latency, task success)

•⁠ ⁠Continuous evaluation and test harnesses

 

What You’ll Build:

 

You’ll build AI agents that act as the operating layer for eCommerce – capable of analysing data, orchestrating tools, and automating complex workflows.

 

•⁠ ⁠Design agents that connect to hundreds of APIs and data sources and act across them.

•⁠ ⁠Evaluation frameworks that lead to self-improving systems.

•⁠ ⁠Integrate with foundational models (OpenAI, Claude, etc.) for reasoning, planning, and execution.

•⁠ ⁠Ship production-grade agents that turn messy data and disconnected tools into decisions and results.

 

Who You Are:

 

You read this job post and immediately start thinking about how the orchestration, state, and planning should work.

 

•⁠ ⁠Senior-level engineer with deep LLM and backend experience.

•⁠ ⁠You’ve architected systems that work across APIs, data pipelines, and dynamic user inputs.

•⁠ ⁠You move fast, take ownership, and care deeply about the quality of what ships – not just whether it works.

•⁠ ⁠You want to build something foundational that sets a new standard – not a wrapper.

 

Our Stack:

We’re shipping fast and always evolving, but right now our stack includes: Python, FastAPI, LangChain, AWS.

 

How We Work

We’re a small team moving fast. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role. We work hard – not because of any rule, but because we genuinely care. We’re obsessed with building something great, and we need someone who feels the same. That means long hours, deep focus, and full commitment to the craft.

 

It also means full trust, flexibility, and a team that has your back. If this sounds like your kind of challenge, let’s talk.
