Job Description & How to Apply Below
Project/Customer background
The client is scaling its AI platform across enterprise customers and is building local teams in Italy to support the design, deployment and improvement of AI agents in real business environments.
Their work sits between software engineering, enterprise integrations, customer workflows and production AI systems. They are looking for engineers who can work close to customers and turn complex business problems into working technical solutions.
Role background
The selected candidate will work directly with enterprise customers to understand critical workflows, design AI-driven solutions and deploy agents that operate reliably in production.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on generalist engineer with strong ownership, clear communication skills and the ability to work well in ambiguous environments. This is not a pure pre-sales role. The person needs to build, ship, improve and own technical outcomes end-to-end.
