Toku
Forward Deployed Engineer / AI Engineer BR
About the opportunity
At Toku, we are building a conversational agent platform to solve complex collection problems for our clients.
We are looking for FDEs / AI Engineers with a founder's mindset: people capable of understanding a real problem, building a functional MVP in a few weeks, and validating it directly with the client before scaling the solution.
This role combines three highly relevant dimensions: software engineering, product thinking, and customer proximity.
We want to work with people who enjoy building products from scratch, know how to prioritize critically amidst change, and are not afraid to experiment to validate a solution within weeks.
We enjoy working with curious people who learn quickly, take initiative, and enjoy building solutions that generate impact in an agile way. If you identify with this way of working, we are waiting for you!
What awaits you?
- Meet periodically with clients to understand their processes, identify opportunities, and translate business needs into technological solutions.
- Design, develop, and iterate on MVPs of conversational agents using AI technologies, validating hypotheses with clients in short cycles.
- Build sustainable and scalable software on a common platform that supports multiple conversational solutions.
- Collaborate closely with Engineering, Product, and other Product Engineers to define the best technical and functional strategy for each solution.
- Make technical decisions considering the trade-offs between execution speed, scalability, and maintainability.
- Actively participate in code reviews, architecture design, and continuous improvement of the team's engineering practices.
What we are looking for in you?
- 4 to 6 years of experience as a Software Engineer, actively participating in the design, development, and deployment of software products.
- Experience building high-scale B2B/B2C products or platforms used by a high volume of users or transactions.
- Experience actively participating in defining features and/or working closely with Product teams in agile contexts.
- Proven experience designing scalable solutions and making technical decisions considering trade-offs between speed, maintainability, and scalability.
- Excellent communication skills to interact with both technical profiles and clients.
- Ability to operate in ambiguous contexts, prioritize autonomously, and transform open-ended problems into concrete solutions.
- Motivation to build AI-driven products.
- Proficiency in Spanish (intermediate/advanced or fluent), with the ability to participate in meetings and communicate clearly with the team.
- Availability for a hybrid model (50%), with in-office presence at our São Paulo office.
Differentiators
- Experience developing products based on LLMs, conversational agents, or AI systems.
- Having participated in building products from initial stages (0 → 1).
- Experience conducting client discoveries or participating in product conversations.
- Experience in high-growth startups or technology companies with large-scale products.
- Experience in distributed systems, APIs, cloud architectures, or high-availability platforms.
- Experience working with agile methodologies and/or with multidisciplinary teams.
