Mission
Design and ship AI-powered workflows, copilots, and internal tools that drive business growth and elevate Grain’s customer experience - through tight collaboration, disciplined execution, and rapid iteration.
Outcomes
Deliver 5+ “quick wins” in your first 90 days that save 20+ hours/week across non-tech teams.
Launch at least one production-grade agent/workflow with clear ROI and basic observability (usage, latency, cost).
Publish a lightweight playbook (prompt/eval templates, RAG/agent boilerplate, Slack bot kit) others can reuse.
Document what you ship and train teammates so solutions stick.
Requirements
Solid grasp of modern AI: LLMs, embeddings, RAG, agents, prompt design, evals/guardrails.
Comfortable with code: JavaScript/TypeScript or Python (both ideal).
APIs \& automation: REST/GraphQL, webhooks, OAuth, queues/cron; glue things together (POS/ERP/CRM, Sheets, Slack).
Data basics: SQL, Postgres, JSON; pragmatic ETL hygiene; debug messy real-world data.
Engineering hygiene: testing mindset, profiling/optimisation instincts, concise docs.
Owner mindset: bias to ship, learn, iterate; low-ego collaboration; clear writing.
Nice to have
Rails/Node backends; Cloudflare Workers/GCP; Docker/K8s familiarity.
Observability (logs/tracing), cost tracking for AI calls, feature flags.
Frontend for internal tools (React/Tailwind).
Security \& privacy awareness (secrets, PII minimisation).
Responsibilities
Partner with ops, culinary, finance, sales, product/engineering to uncover high-leverage problems and translate them into AI-assisted workflows.
Prototype fast (days, not weeks): ship v0, measure, iterate to v1–v3.
Build/evolve LLM pipelines (retrieval, tool-use/agents, evals, guardrails, monitoring).
Integrate systems end-to-end (APIs, webhooks, queues) to remove manual steps.
Turn proven hacks into reliable services: tests, observability, cost controls, basic security checks.
Share patterns: write docs, run demos, raise the org’s AI literacy.
