Full-time

About the Role:We are looking for an ambitious and adaptable AI Software Engineer to help build our trading-intelligence platform. The product is a website plus a Windows desktop app. The public site is the landing page. Users download the app and run the product on their own machine. You will work with the engineer who owns the platform, across the full stack, and turn business needs into working software.This is a product-engineering role. You will use modern LLM APIs inside a live trading product. We are hiring early-career engineers: strong graduates, or people with about one to two years of work.What you will work on:Web: A Next.js and React site, covering the public landing page and the signed-in product for pre-trade analysis, trade review, and chat.Backend: Python services for market analysis, user accounts, and live broker data.Chat: A trading assistant that answers questions, uses market and account context, and streams a clear written reply.Desktop: An Electron app, shipped as a Windows executable, that users download from the site and use as their main way into the product.Markets: MetaTrader 5 for prices, charts, and account history across forex, stocks, commodities, crypto, and indices.Infrastructure: The live system on AWS, deployed and looked after from the Linux command line.Key Responsibilities:Platform work: Improve the product wherever the work is: backend logic, the web app, the chatbot, or the desktop app.Backend: Build and maintain Python services for analysis, market data, authentication, and MT5.Chat: Help shape the assistant: how it understands a question, which tools it calls, and how it writes the answer.Desktop: Connect the desktop app to the backend, including authentication, updates, and safe use of model APIs.Trading integration: Integrate MT5 for prices, charts, account history, and position sizing. Treat live accounts with care, and change order flow only when that behaviour is explicitly in scope.Deployment: Help deploy and operate the stack on AWS EC2, including services, logs, and safe restarts.AI development tools: Use tools such as Cursor to move faster, and review what they produce before it ships.Collaboration: Work directly with the engineer who owns the platform and with the business. Explain trade-offs in plain language and ship small, testable changes.Experience:About one to two years in a software role, or a strong graduate with projects that stand in for that time. An internship counts.You have built something with a web frontend and a Python backend, at work, in an internship, or as a substantial project. You can read an existing codebase, follow how one service calls another, and make a small change without breaking the rest.You have called a hosted LLM from your own code. A course project, a side project, or a feature at work is enough. You know what a prompt, a tool call, and a streamed reply are, and you have seen a model answer badly and fixed the code around it.You are comfortable in a terminal. You do not need to have run production. You should be ready to deploy on a Linux server with someone who already knows the setup.A working interest in markets is enough. You should know what MT5 is, what a symbol and a timeframe are, and why account size matters for a trade. Brokerage experience is not required.Hard Skills & Qualifications:Architecture: You can look at a small system and explain where data lives, which part talks to the outside world, and what the website and the desktop app each do.Backend: Solid Python. Familiar with FastAPI, async code, Postgres, and Redis, from work or from projects you can talk through.Frontend: Hands-on React and Next.js with TypeScript. Familiar with Tailwind. You can build a screen and match an existing design.Desktop: You have used Electron, or a similar desktop stack, and you can learn how we package the Windows app.AI integration: You have used a hosted model API such as OpenAI, Gemini, or OpenRouter. You can change a chatbot’s behaviour in code, not only by rewriting a prompt.Markets: A basic grasp of forex, indices, commodities, and crypto, plus the idea of risk per trade. You understand why a trading assistant must not invent prices or place trades by accident.AWS and Linux: You can use the Linux command line. You have some exposure to cloud servers, or you can get comfortable on EC2 quickly with guidance.AI tools: You already use coding assistants in daily work, and you read the change before you keep it.Communication: You can explain a technical choice to someone who is not an engineer, and you can turn a business request into a small piece of working software.Nice-to-Haves:A small Electron app you can show.A chatbot that calls tools, even as a project.A deploy you did yourself, on any Linux host.Personal trading, a markets elective, or time around a broker platform.How the role works:You will pair with the engineer who already owns the platform. Expect to pick up a slice of work, such as a chatbot change, an analysis fix, a desktop update, or a screen in the app, and carry it through with review. You will learn the trading domain and the production setup on the job. Judgment still matters. Trading users act on what the product says..

Ownership: you treat cost, latency, and business impact as your problem, and your team's. Bias to build: a prototype in a real workflow beats a perfect design doc every time. Comfortable with ambiguity: most of what we build has no playbook yet, and you help write it. Keep it simple: pick the approach that delivers the most value with the least complexity, and #makeithappen.At talabat, your success is defined by both results and behaviors. We hire for excellence in craft and for the Leadership Principles that shape how we think, decide, and collaborate. What you achieve matters, and how you achieve it defines us.

Job SummaryAs a Forward Deployed AI Engineer, Technical Lead you set the technical direction for a squad embedded in the business: you sit with stakeholders to understand the problem and the why, then design, build, deploy and run the agentic AI systems that solve it, end to end. This is a hands-on, build-first role with single-threaded ownership of a real aviation outcome, working alongside a Business Product Owner and an AI Value Architect, on a shared platform (paved road, MCP fabric, standards) that lets your squad self-serve against client systems.Accountabilities & ResponsibilitiesUnderstand before you build. Start every problem with the business need and the why, working directly with stakeholders, then take the solution from discovery to production.Design, build, deploy and continuously improve enterprise-grade agentic AI applications for real aviation scenarios, using agentic coding as your default way of working.Build agents that reason across steps, call tools and APIs, manage context, handle exceptions and support human-in-the-loop, reliably and at enterprise scale.Design and implement RAG pipelines over enterprise knowledge: ingestion, chunking, embeddings, vector search, retrieval tuning, grounding and source traceability.Build MCP-based integrations and connect agents to backend systems via REST/OpenAPI, webhooks and event-driven patterns with secure authentication, and expose your own work as clean, reusable, self-serviceable interfaces.Apply structured LLM patterns end to end: tool calling, schema-validated outputs, retries, fallbacks and guardrails.Own quality from day one: testing, evaluation, observability, logging, versioning and feedback loops for reliability, accuracy, latency, security and cost.Apply security, privacy, access control, auditability, responsible-AI and governance across every deployment.Take single-threaded ownership of a domain outcome (one owner, one result), and help establish reusable patterns that grow Etihad’s internal AI capability rather than renting it.Coordinate with your Business Product Owner, AI Value Architect and other squads; speak up when AI is not the right tool.Set the technical direction and standards for the squad’s agentic AI work, and make the key architecture and build-vs-buy calls.Design multi-agent and agent-to-agent systems and the evaluation frameworks that keep them reliable, and lead delivery with external AI platforms and vendors while building Etihad’s internal capability.Grow the engineers around you: mentor, review, and raise the bar on quality, security and cost across the squad. Education & ExperienceWe look for a technical lead who sets the engineering direction for agentic AI while still building, and combines that with a business-first mindset:Curiosity above all: you dig into problems, question assumptions and want to understand how the airline actually works.A business-first, human-centric mindset: aviation is made for humans, by humans, and AI supports people, it does not replace them. Fluent English, comfortable in a culturally diverse, international team.8+ years building production-grade software, including 4+ years with GenAI, LLMs and applied ML and at least 1 year of hands-on agentic AI as an early adopter, with a track record of setting technical direction and shipping agentic systems at scale.Hands-on experience or strong working knowledge of MCP (Model Context Protocol) for connecting agents to tools, systems, APIs and data.Strong Python, with strong knowledge of at least one of TypeScript / JavaScript, Java, or C#, and modern engineering practice: async programming, FastAPI, Pydantic, Git and CI/CD, testing, error handling and logging.Practical experience with at least one agent framework or enterprise AI platform (e.g. LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK, Microsoft Foundry, Amazon BedrockAgentCore, Google Vertex/Gemini) and with a vector database or search platform (e.g. Azure AI Search, pgvector, Pinecone, Weaviate, OpenSearch).Experience integrating enterprise systems (APIs, managed identities, webhooks, queues, middleware) and deploying on cloud with containers, monitoring and observability; sound judgement on the trade-offs of latency, quality, cost and reliability, and on security, privacy, responsible AI and governance.Strong assets: aviation or airline domain knowledge; a background in classical machine learning and data science; and classical full-stack development (interfaces, frontends, APIs, backend engineering).Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, AI/ML or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience; relevant cloud-AI, GenAI, agentic-AI or MLOps certifications are an advantage.Preferred For This LevelExperience building AI agents for complex enterprise or operations-heavy workflows (logistics, supply chain, aviation, cargo, customer operations or contact centre).Experience with voice AI, email automation, CRM integrations, workflow automation or multilingual agents.Experience designing golden test sets, simulation-based testing, regression testing and agent evaluation frameworks.Experience designing multi-agent systems and agent-to-agent communication patterns, agent registries or tool-orchestration standards.Experience leading delivery with external AI platforms, startups or vendors while building internal engineering capability.Growth path: the natural next step is AI Value Architect, owning a cluster’s value journey while still building alongside the team.

Murphy AI company logo - hiring for AI roles in UAE

Data Scientist

Murphy AI

Financial Services

Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Financial Services
Full-time

Murphy deploys AI agents for banks starting with the most straightforward business case: voice AI for debt collection. We’ve built a fully-fledged platform designed to optimize recovery rates while maintaining respectful and personalized communication.Our AI-powered agents adapt instantly, engaging with debtors across channels like voice, messengers, email and SMS to maximize results while preserving trust.We’re live with Santander, Revolut, BBVA and dozens others. We’ve proven the product in large-scale pilots with top-tier banks. And now we need to move fast to secure leadership in this $300Bn+ industry.About The RoleWe're looking for a Data Scientist to build the Murphy’s brain — the ML that decides who we contact, when, how and how often, to recover the most debt inside hard legal limits. Recovery is a data problem before it's a voice problem, and you own the data problem. This is one of the highest-leverage seats in the company: your models set the strategy every AI agent executes, on every call.Murphy builds AI voice agents that collect overdue debt for banks: more recovered, faster, cheaper, fully compliant, and respectful to the debtor. We're live with Santander, Revolut, BBVA and dozens others. We've proven the product in large-scale pilots with top-tier banks — now we're making every contact smarter, and we need a scientist to own the models that decide how we collect.What you'll doOwn the contact strategy. Who Murphy contacts, when, how often, on which channel — voice, WhatsApp, etc. — to maximise recovery inside hard legal guardrails.Model the debtor. Propensity and uplift models — who picks up, who pays, who responds to which voice, script or offer — turned into live segments the agents act on.Optimise with experiments. A/B tests and bandits over timing, cadence, voice and negotiation policy; find what lifts recovery, and ship it fast.Own business-level outcomes. Collaborate with product, engineering and commercial teams to define solutions and improve the key metrics.Who you areYou hold a degree in mathematics, statistics, machine learning, or computer science.Rigorous with probability and statistics. Experimental design, causal inference. You reach for the right tool, and you know when a result is real.AI-native, ruthless on quality. You reach for AI to automate and streamline by default — and you know exactly where it gets sloppy. You never let that through, and you control quality rigorously.You don’t need a collections or fintech background. We’d rather teach the domain to a killer than hire a lifer who can’t ship — you’ll pick up the domain, the data and the regulation cold, fast.Requirements2+ years shipping ML that ran in production and moved business metrics. Models that pick the best next action and measure whether it actually changed the outcome; ranking, pricing or contact-strategy models. Models that ship as code, not notebooks.Expert Python. Comfortable in a real production codebase — you take a model from idea to production and monitor it. We use Python for ML/AI services and TypeScript around it, on AWS and PostgreSQL.Statistics you can defend. Experimental design, causal inference, measuring the real effect of an action — not just correlations. You know when a result is real, when it’s noise, and how to test it.Experimentation. You’ve designed, run and interpreted A/B tests or bandits on live traffic, and shipped the winner.You turn models into decisions. You can explain to stakeholders why the model says to call this client at 6pm — and defend it.🤝 What we offer💰 Salary at the top of the benchmark.📈 Fair equity with enormous upside potential.🧩 Real Ownership - Murphy's strategy is yours to drive.🙌 Small team, high autonomy, and outsized impact.🗣️ The founding team's direct attention, and a category with a $300B+ industry behind it.🛜 Hybrid & Flexible: Our default setup is hybrid – 3 days a week at our office and 2 days of remote work.📚 Our Process1️⃣ First Interview – Getting to Know YouA conversation with a future teammate who’s excited to find a new colleague. We’ll talk about your story, what drives you, and what you’re looking for next—no trick questions, just a genuine exchange.2️⃣ Second Interview – Deep DiveYou’ll meet the Hiring Manager and potentially another team member. This is a more technical discussion where we explore your skills in detail, walk through real scenarios, and answer any questions you might have about the role.3️⃣ Tech Assessment or Business CaseA practical exercise to see how you approach challenges similar to those you’d tackle at Murphy. You’ll have time to reflect and showcase your thinking—no rush, no surprises.4️⃣ Call with the FoundersOur founders meet every team member and it’s a great opportunity for you to learn about the company and its direction.👉 To learn more about how we hire and what to expect at every step, feel free to explore our Hiring Guide!👉 We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace where everyone, regardless of background, identity, or experience, feels valued and empowered to thrive. We believe that different perspectives drive innovation and success, and we actively foster an environment where all voices are heard and respected.
