About The Role:

We're looking for an AI-curious Software Engineer to join our R&D team and help us bring innovative product ideas to life. This is a perfect opportunity for a recent or soon-to-be Computer Science graduate who's explored AI through coursework, personal projects, or hackathons.

In this fast-paced, entrepreneurial role, you'll work closely with our CEO, Product Manager, and Sales/Marketing team to rapidly prototype early-stage concepts using modern AI tools and automation platforms. Think of this role as an AI-powered tech prototyper — someone who loves to experiment, build, and iterate quickly.

Once a prototype gains traction and market validation, you'll hand it off to the core engineering team and move on to the next big idea.

You'll work closely with our CEO, Product Manager, and Sales/Marketing Manager to take early-stage product ideas and turn them into working prototypes using AI tools, automation platforms, and rapid development techniques. Once a prototype is validated and shows market potential, it will be transitioned to our core engineering team and you'll move on to the next idea. This role is highly entrepreneurial and fast-paced, think of it as being a tech prototyper with AI.

What You'll Do:

• Rapidly build and iterate on prototypes using tools like Cursor AI, Windsurf, Bolt, or similar AI-enhanced development platforms
• Integrate AI APIs (OpenAI, HuggingFace, etc.) and automation tools (n8n, LangChain, Zapier) into working MVPs
• Build functional, demo-ready applications with a focus on speed and user experience
• Collaborate with non-technical stakeholders to refine concepts and adapt solutions based on feedback
• Document technical decisions and ensure smooth hand-offs to the core dev team for productization

What We're Looking For

Must-Haves

• Recent or upcoming degree in Computer Science or a related field
• Hands-on exposure to AI tools or concepts (e.g., LLMs, NLP, ML, AI APIs)
• Proficiency in Java and React
• Ability to move quickly, iterate fast, and adapt to new tools and ideas
• Comfort working across diverse problem spaces

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience with low-code/no-code automation tools (e.g., n8n, Zapier)
• Familiarity with AI agents or autonomous workflows
• Prior experience building prototypes (internships, side projects, hackathons)
• Interest in public safety, emergency communication, or mission-driven tech

Why Join Us?

• Build real products that solve urgent, real-world problems
• Work on a wide variety of ideas — from AI chatbots to crisis-response tools
• Collaborate closely with leadership and cross-functional teams
• Join a growing company backed by a global software powerhouse — while staying nimble and creative
