Job Title
Senior/Staff Applied AI Engineer, Full-Stack
Salary
Competitive base + Equity — top-tier comp at a world-leading AI lab
Location
Seoul (On-site)
Company Description
One of the world's most important AI labs — European, building open-weight, open-source frontier models that go head-to-head with the best closed labs. They train the models, not wrap them. Teams across France, the US, UK, Germany, and Singapore — now building in Seoul. Low-ego, ship-fast, research-meets-production.
What You'll Do
- Take frontier models into real enterprise software and own the integration end to end.
- Design and ship scalable full-stack systems where front-end and back-end actually fit together.
- Build the hardest customer use cases and get them to production accuracy.
- Set the technical bar and level up the engineers around you.
- Push field learnings back into the product with research and product teams.
Who You Are
- 5+ years as a hands-on IC on cutting-edge tech.
- Strong in Python and TypeScript; comfortable across React / Next.js / Vue and Node.js.
- Deep software fundamentals — design patterns, data structures, algorithms.
- You can explain a gnarly tradeoff to an engineer and a CTO in the same meeting.
- Fluent in English.
- Bonus: LLM/GenAI experience, open-source contributions, or a Forward Deployed / Sales / Solutions Engineer or Technical PM background.
Why Join
- Build on genuinely open-weight frontier models, as a senior engineer on the ground.
- Bring frontier AI to Korean enterprises from the front line.
- Work directly with a global team across France, the US, UK, Germany, and Singapore.
- Low-ego, ship-fast culture. Competitive comp + equity.
