Apply to role ›You'll work at the intersection of software engineering, AI, and product design. You will own the full lifecycle of AI features, from ideation and customer feedback to implementation and deployment.
This role is ideal for an engineer who loves building AI-powered products and wants build for the “real word” with high impact.
You'll be one of our first hires, which means you’ll have significant autonomy, impact, and ownership.
You’ll work closely with Pierre-Habté, CPTO at Bravi.
Responsibilities:
- Design and ship agentic AI systems: multi-step workflows that reason, act, and recover from failure in real production environments
- Build the knowledge layer: ingest product catalogs, technical documentation, and pricing rules into structured, reliable AI memory
- Own evaluations: design feedback loops and benchmarks that tell us whether the AI is actually getting better with each iteration
- Integrate with the physical world : connect agents to the tools manufacturers actually use: telephony, ERPs, CRMs, scheduling systems
- Work directly with clients: sit in on calls, understand where human experts break down, and design the automated replacement
- Shape the product: you're early enough that what you build defines what Bravi becomes
Qualifications
- 3+ years of experience building web applications with TypeScript/React (or equivalent experience through personal projects).
- Previous experience with AI/ML projects, natural language processing, or data extraction systems.
- Experience with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) and prompt engineering.
- A product-minded engineer who thinks about user experience and business impact.
- Strong problem-solving mindset and ability to operate in ambiguous, fast-paced environments.
- Highly curious about AI tools (Cursor, Claude code etc)
- French/English speaker
Bonus Points For:
- Familiarity with B2B SaaS or CRM product development.
- Prior experience in a startup or early-stage environment.
- Experience with React Native
Bravi is reimagining CRM and communication tools from the ground up. Backed by Y Combinator (F2025), we're building voice assistants, smart CRMs, and workflow automations that work with people, not just for them.
Our focus is on the fast-growing home services & construction sector, empowering businesses that are shaping a sustainable future, from solar panel installers to energy renovation experts.
These companies face a high volume of unstructured communications that traditional CRMs can't manage.
Our mission is to transform this complex data into actionable insights through AI-powered automation.
