Python Developer – AI Team

We work together, collaborating across boundaries to bring the best to our customers around the world.

Are you passionate about artificial intelligence and eager to build innovative AI-driven solutions from the ground up? At Smart IT, we are assembling a team of ambitious professionals dedicated to leveraging AI to enhance both internal operations and external products. As a Python Developer in our AI team, your primary focus will be to design and develop backend services and APIs that bring our AI capabilities to life.

WHY join us?

• Guided by our core values Humanity, Innovation and Responsibility, we work openly in an environment of closeness, recognition and trust.
• You will be part of a team with smart, friendly, talented, hardworking and committed to doing great work people.
• You will be provided with plentiful opportunities as technologies and business models that empower you to show and expand your skills and abilities.
• You will be joining a stable environment and comfortable working condition.

WHAT your essential role in the team will be:

• Work closely with AI/ML Engineers and other developers to integrate models (LLMs, NLP systems, prediction models, etc.) into production.
• Build internal tools and platforms that help other teams adopt AI in their daily workflows.
• Help shape the architecture and best practices for our AI services as we scale.
• While this role is primarily backend-focused, experience with other technologies (front-end, DevOps, other languages) is highly appreciated, especially when building prototypes and experimenting with new tools.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain robust, scalable backend services and APIs in Python (e.g. FastAPI, Django, or Flask) to expose AI functionality.
• Collaborate with AI/ML Engineers to integrate, optimize, and monitor AI models in production (e.g. LLMs, NLP pipelines, ML predictions).
• Write clean, efficient, and testable code, including unit/integration tests, and participate in code reviews.
• Work with data and storage layers – design and optimize database schemas (PostgreSQL, MongoDB or others), handle data flows between services and AI models.
• Support AI research & prototyping by wrapping proof-of-concept models into services for internal testing.
• Contribute to internal AI transformation by developing tools and dashboards that streamline workflows for other teams.
• Troubleshoot and maintain existing AI-related services – monitor performance, fix bugs, and improve reliability and scalability.
• Collaborate with DevOps / platform engineers to deploy, monitor, and operate services in cloud environments (e.g. Azure).

WHAT necessary requirements for the position are needed:

• Strong experience with Python in a professional environment (backend or full-stack).
• 5+ years is ideal, but we’re also open to motivated candidates with less experience and strong skills.
• Solid understanding of software development principles (clean code, modular design, testing, version control).
• Experience with at least one Python web framework (FastAPI, Django, Flask, etc.).
• Good knowledge of SQL and experience with PostgreSQL or MongoDB.
• Experience with package management in Python (pip, venv/poetry/conda, etc.).
• Familiarity with REST APIs, asynchronous programming, and building services that integrate with external APIs.
• Comfort working with Linux, VMs, and basic shell scripting.
• Genuine interest in AI and Large Language Models (you’ve experimented with AI APIs or used AI tools in your workflow.
• Strong problem-solving and communication skills, and a proactive, ownership-driven mindset.

Experience & Education:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a related field.
• Experience with other programming languages (e.g. TypeScript, Go, Java, etc.).
• Exposure to front-end technologies (JavaScript/TypeScript, React, modern CSS frameworks).
• Knowledge of AI/ML concepts and algorithms (even at a high level).
• Hands-on experience with AI frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or Hugging Face.
• Experience deploying and running services in cloud environments (preferably Azure) and using containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).

WHAT we are offering to you:

• Remote work opportunity.
• 30 days of paid leave.
• Health insurance.
• Food vouchers.
• Interesting work on new and long-run projects.
• Multisport card at a discounted price.
