About ESTO
Founded in 2017, we are a fast-growing fintech company on a mission to make shopping and financial decisions effortless. By combining smart technology with customer-first thinking, we enable people to pay flexibly and businesses to grow faster.
As a team, we value ambition, ownership, and constant improvement. We move fast, think big, and build solutions that make a real impact on everyday lives.
About the role:
ESTO is hiring AI Operations Engineer who will be one of the first builders in its AI Operations team, working closely with the Head of AI Ops and teams across ESTO, with the autonomy to build, experiment, and move fast.
This is a hands-on role for someone who gets excited about turning possibilities into working solutions - you will experiment with the latest AI tooling, build agentic workflows and integrations, and solve problems that have a visible impact on how ESTO operates.
What You’ll Do:
Build AI-powered automation - design and ship agentic workflows, integrations, and scripts on our AI stack and internal systems
Remove operational bottlenecks - take ideas from concept to production, understand the problem, design the solution, build it, test it, and iterate
Keep what you ship alive - monitor the automations you and the team own, catch failures before users do, and refine them as inputs, volumes, and processes change
Experiment on the frontier - try new AI capabilities and tooling, and turn the promising ones into practical solutions
Set the standard - establish best practices for AI usage and workflow orchestration.
Spread what work s - turn each automation into a reusable template and share what you learn to build a culture of experimentation across ESTO
What We Expect:
Solid engineering skills: Python (or similar), APIs, integrations, data
Problem solver who turns challenges into practical technical plans
AI-native: excited about AI/LLMs, comfortable experimenting with tooling
Builder mindset: ships small, tests, iterates from real feedback
Collaborative across Ops, Engineering, and Product
Curious: digs into the "why," not just the task
Ownership mentality: self-directed, fast-moving, comfortable with ambiguity in a role built from scratch
Nice to have
Automating support/finance/ops processes, AI agent frameworks, fintech/regulated experience
