Associate AI Engineer

GetDeal AI is an expert-driven, AI-specialized marketplace for acquiring and selling high-growth AI companies. Our due-diligence pipeline delivers in 30 minutes what traditional processes take 3 weeks to produce. The platform is 95% complete and launching this quarter.

Every internal function is already partly run by subagents: department agents, buyer outreach, deal research, ops. This role takes that work over and makes it better every day.

What you'll own in your first 6 months:

- Ship scoped features inside the GetDeal platform monorepo at a weekly cadence (asset-card UI, onboarding flow, buyer portal improvements), each with tests written, code review passed, and merged without reverts

- Own several internal agentic pipelines end-to-end (HR drafting, buyer outreach, deal research, ops), each with a subagent definition, tool scope, guardrail file, and JSONL audit log

- Stand up new subagents continuously as the work surfaces them — deal-pipeline analyst, seller success drafter, QA helpers, and anything that removes manual founder work

- Reduce founder time spent on manual ops by a measurable amount every week, tracked in a before/after log in the repo

- Own the internal AI-tooling handbook — a living doc capturing Claude Code workflows, prompt patterns, subagent definitions, and MCP wiring notes

What you bring:

- Shipped at least one real project end-to-end using modern AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, custom LLM agents, MCP servers)

- Comfortable in a TypeScript / Node monorepo — reads it, edits it, writes tests for it

- Reads a specification and follows it precisely — guardrails, caps, error paths, and edge cases get implemented as written

- Available full-time; ready for startup cadence

- Evidence of fast learning under ambiguity

Nice to have:

- Prior exposure to M&A, private investment, or confidential-deal workflows

- A public artifact of your AI-tool use (prompt library, custom subagent set, blog post, OSS tool)

- Experience instrumenting an agentic system (structured logs, caps and guardrails, idempotency, rate limits)

How we work: Remote-first, core team in Spain and Portugal. EU working hours — core overlap 10:00–15:00 CET. Communication is direct and technically precise. We hire for evidence of outcomes, not credentials.
