AI Systems Engineer

Why This Role Matters? Running great schools at scale is an unsolved problem. Timetables, staffing, student success, operational workflows, quality loops. It's a web of complexity that no off-the-shelf software can handle. So we're building our own. We call it the Ops OS an intelligent, event-driven system that makes schools work and scale. Think of it as the nervous system of a school network: routing the right information to the right person at the right time. We're looking for AI Systems Engineers who want to build things that matter Role Summary This isn't a typical AI/ML role. You won't be training models in isolation or writing research papers. You'll be embedded in the real world. Talking to students, school staff and internal leaders. You ll be understanding messy operational problems, and shipping working systems that people rely on every single day. You'll use AI as a power tool alongside strong product engineering skills to build internal apps, data pipelines, dashboards, and intelligent workflows. What You'll Do • Investigate real problems sit with ops teams and school leads to deeply understand what's broken before writing a line of code. • Build fast go from messy problem spec working prototype in days, not months. We use Claude Code, Cursor, Replit, and every AI tool that makes us faster. • Ship products, not scripts build real, production-quality tools with great UX (React/TypeScript, Supabase, APIs). Our users are internal Nooners, students, teachers, and school staff. Each user deserves thoughtful designs! • Design systems that compound think in loops, not features. Data insight action feedback better data. • Own your domain end-to-end from problem discovery to adoption. If nobody uses it, we haven't succeeded. What We're Looking For • You think before you build. You can explain a problem to a non-technical person in 30 seconds. • You're fast. Ruthlessly good at scoping: 80% of the impact with 20% of the effort. • You're strong in data & SQL , AI/LLMs , and product engineering. • You re eager to learn and adopt new tools and ways of working. • You build things that work, not things that look impressive on a slide. • You communicate clearly in writing, in demos, in Slack. No jargon. • You don't wait to be told. You find the problem, propose the solution, and drive it. • Fluent in Arabic and English • Based in Riyadh (or able to relocate by an agreed date) Bonus Points • Experience with event-driven architectures or operational systems. • You've built internal tools or ops platforms before. • You've used AI coding tools (Cursor, Copilot, Claude) to move 5x faster and ship real products.
