5 million customers worldwide. WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR 🌟 The AI era isn't coming, it's already here. At Manychat, we're building it into the foundation of everything and we need an Applied AI Engineer to help make that real.

Your main focus will be AI agents and agentic workflows, LLM-powered system orchestration, and automation pipelines that integrate into the business processes that actually matter. You'll work across internal and customer-facing systems, writing production-grade code and partnering with product and business teams to turn complex challenges into reliable, scalable solutions. We'd love to work with someone who brings more than strong engineering fundamentals.

Someone with the product mindset to understand business context, the communication skills to work fluidly across teams, and the pragmatism to choose solutions that are effective and built to last. Ownership matters here: we're looking for someone who drives work from discovery to rollout, not someone who hands things off at the first checkpoint. If success for you means identifying real AI use cases, building things that work reliably at scale, and being a trusted technical partner to the teams around you, let’s talk!
