It is small and independent, part of our product organization, with room to set its own pace and ways of working. Its job is to make migrating to Frends from other integration platforms fast, predictable and repeatable, using AI tooling we build ourselves.\n\nWe work close to customer projects. When a new challenge comes along, such as a source platform we haven't migrated from before, the team takes it on first: building the tooling, solving the problems as they come up, and doing the Frends development. Once the approach is proven, we hand it over to our Delivery teams and partners and move on to the next one.\n\nThis means you will often start without a ready playbook. You will be trusted to figure things out, try different approaches, and learn fast, with the support of a team. We are looking for two AI Integration Engineers (mid or senior level) to join us.\n\nWhat you'll do:\n\nBuild the AI tooling (about 40%)Build and maintain the AI tooling (agent skills, scripts, prompts, automated tests) that consultants, partners and customers use to analyze, estimate, design and build Frends integrations.\n\nAdd support for new source platforms.\n\nOwn the quality of the tooling: regression tests, versioning and release notes.\n\nDeliver migration projects (about 40%)Do hands-on Frends development on migration projects, especially the first projects on a new source platform.\n\nAnalyze customers' existing integrations, then estimate the work and design the Frends solution.\n\nJoin customer technical sessions, mostly remotely.\n\nClose the loop (about 10%)Turn what goes wrong on projects into backlog items and fixes in the tooling.\n\nTrack how accurate the estimates were against actual effort.\n\nTake part in developing new tools and services.\n\nGet others to use it (about 10%)Coach consultants and partners on the tooling and pair with them on their first migrations.\n\nOwn the playbooks and documentation that let a platform be handed over to Delivery.\n\nContribute to turning the tooling into a service for partners and customers.\n\nWhat we're looking for:\n\nYou have around 5+ years in software or integration development, with strong experience in at least two of the following:Enterprise integration: hands-on development on an enterprise integration platform (iPaaS or ESB), such as Frends, Azure Integration Services, MuleSoft, BizTalk, Boomi, webMethods, TIBCO or SAP PI/PO.\n\nAI-assisted development: building with AI coding agents in your daily work (for example agent workflows, skills or MCP), together with a backend or integration development background.\n\nHands-on development: you write code and build solutions yourself.\n\nCustomer work: experience working directly with customers on technical topics, for example workshops, requirements gathering or technical solution discussions.\n\nIn addition, you are a fast learner who thrives in a fast-paced environment, is curious about solving problems, and is willing to jump into unknowns. You also bring:Hands-on use of AI coding agents (for example Claude Code, Cursor or Codex) in real development work, beyond using them as chat assistants.\n\nA solid understanding of APIs, data formats and messaging (for example REST, SOAP, JSON, XML, queues).\n\nProgramming skills in at least one general-purpose language (for example C#, Python, TypeScript or Java).\n\nThe ability to read and understand unfamiliar code and integration logic quickly.\n\nVersion control and modern development practices (Git, code review, CI/CD).\n\nFluent English, spoken and written, with developers and with customers.\n\nNice to have:Experience in migration projects from one integration platform to another, or with several integration platforms and how the same concepts map between them.\n\nBuilding tools, automations, or internal platforms that other developers use.\n\nValidating and testing AI-generated code or output, for example evaluations, test automation or review practices.\n\nCustomer project delivery, including scoping and estimating integration work.\n\nIntegration architecture and design patterns, such as enterprise integration patterns, API-led or layered API architecture, and event-driven integration.\n\nBPMN or other process-modelling notation.\n\nBuilding MCP servers, agent skills or agent workflows, and working with LLM APIs directly (for example Anthropic or OpenAI), including prompt and context design.\n\nAzure, especially integration and hosting services.\n\nWhat we offer:Real AI work in production: You build AI agent tooling that runs on real enterprise integration projects, not demos or prototypes.\n\nWork that reaches beyond one project: Your tooling is used by Frends consultants, partners and customers, so your impact scales well past your own projects.\n\nA hard, meaningful problem: Migrating from legacy integration platforms has always been slow, expensive, and risky. You get to change that with AI.\n\nYour integration expertise as an edge: Your integration background stays your core strength, and AI becomes your everyday tool.\n\nA product company building AI into its core: Frends is actively adding AI capabilities such as its MCP server, Enterprise MCP and the AI Connector, and you work alongside that direction.\n\nRoom to grow: The role grows with the team and connects to every part of Frends, from R&D and product management to Delivery, presales and partners, so you can grow in many directions.\n\nFlexibility: Remote work with flexible working hours.\n\nSalary: 68K - 87K eur, depending on experience.\n\nRead from our blog why talents choose Frends and why Frendszies stay with us.\n\nReady to Join Frends?\n\nIf you're ready to join a dynamic, fast-moving, growing company, get in touch and let's connect!\n\nAdditional InformationThe Start: Flexible according to your situation.\n\nThe Contract: Permanent, full-time position.\n\nPlease note that we do not accept applications submitted by email.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5967,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Flexible schedule"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Finland","iso":"FI","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Integration & API Management","Low-Code & No-Code Platforms"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-01T08:57:45Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":6,"expected_fill_days":38,"reasons":["seen:6","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-05T05:54:30Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/frends-ai-integration-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/frends-ai-integration-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-05T16:01:16Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":20996,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-06T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":181102},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=181102"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ffrends-ai-integration-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ffrends-ai-integration-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ffrends-ai-integration-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/frends-ai-integration-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ffrends-ai-integration-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3584958}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"frends.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3584958},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
