  • Contributing to the design and integration of AI-powered features (e.g., generative AI, document summarization, and intelligent data extraction) into our products.
  • Contributing to the continuous improvement of our engineering team.

What it takes:

  • Proficiency in spoken and written French and English.
  • 5+ years of experience in software development.
  • Degree in computer science or software engineering, or equivalent experience.
