AI engineer in retail

Helping a customer choose a suitable outfit. Understanding information from documents. Enabling an application to perform actions in our systems in a controlled way. As an AI Engineer at Omoda Brands, you build the AI functionality that makes this possible. You ensure it reliably does what it is supposed to do in production.

• You build AI functionality that understands information, generates answers or content, and performs actions in a controlled way.
• You combine models, company data, retrieval, and tools into working applications.
• You develop, deploy, and manage the services and APIs behind those applications.
• You set up evaluations and treat prompts and configurations as version-controlled, tested components.
• You build in logging, monitoring, error handling, and fallback options from the start.
• You ensure there are clear limits on what an application may do independently and when human review is needed.
• You monitor and improve quality, reliability, speed, and costs in production.
• You help build shared AI capabilities that the team can reuse.

• You are a medior or senior software engineer and have brought AI or LLM applications into production.
• You can build, deploy, and manage reliable backend services and APIs.
• You have practical experience with, for example, retrieval, tool use, agents, or multimodal models.
• You understand embeddings, context management, and the trade-offs around fine-tuning.
• You know how to test systems whose output is not identical every time.
• You work with Python or a comparable backend language and have experience with a cloud platform.
• You use coding agents and critically assess their output.
• You can clearly explain technical choices.
• Good command of the Dutch language is required for this position.
• You do not need to know every model or framework. We consider strong software engineering, production experience, and the ability to understand new technology more important.

• Flexible working from Zierikzee, Amsterdam, or Zwolle. We meet at one of these locations an average of 1 to 2 days per week.
• 32–38 hours per week, depending on your preference.
• A salary that matches your knowledge, experience, and the value you bring.
• Concrete AI applications to build on.
• Technical ownership, from design through to operation in production.
• Room for technical choices and deeper exploration.
• The scale of four brands and direct contact with the colleagues who use your work.
• A role that we can fill at medior or senior level.
