Principal Applied AI Engineer

We are the company behind CKEditor — an open-source rich text editor used by millions of people around the world. We are part of Tiugo Technologies, a family of API-first developer platforms (CKEditor, TinyMCE, ButterCMS, Uploadcare) focused on content creation and digital collaboration. Your role: We’re looking for a Principal Applied AI Engineer to solve high-impact problems across our products and internal systems using a pragmatic combination of software engineering, systems thinking, and AI. You will work across CKEditor AI & Cloud Services, internal tools, and cross-functional initiatives, identifying where AI or automation can create real value, shaping the solution, and building it end to end. A significant part of this role is improving how software is built inside the company. You will design and implement agentic workflows and AI-assisted development systems that enhance how engineers write, review, test, and operate software. You are expected to use AI as part of your own daily engineering workflow - not just build AI systems for others. This role is for a senior hands-on engineer who is comfortable operating in ambiguity, moving from problem definition to architecture to implementation, and influencing how other teams adopt AI effectively.
