About the role
We're building an AI agent for e-commerce - Zipchat.ai
We believe the LLM revolution will change the way humanity shops. We're trying to figure out how exactly.
We work with hundreds of brands, we're bootstrapped, we're default-alive and we're focused on innovating in the AI/Ecom space.
We have a Shopify app, a Whatsapp app but we're building on top of open standards so we can support all kind of merchants.
Experience building RAG AI agents:
LLM experience ( OpenAI, Anthropic, etc )
Retrieval ( embeddings / vector dbs )
Prompt engineering
Dev skills
Ruby on Rails 💎 - We run on rails
Python 🐍 - Some useful libs require Python
Experience with Web scraping & data storage
Communication
English 🏴 - able to communicate without friction
Proactivity - able to communicate issues proactively, unstuck themselves and work as a team
Mindset

Innovation - can come up with ideas on improving the agent
Embrace the chaos - prioritise shipping value to customers, not clean code. Make your mama proud, not your fellow dev buddies! 🤘
