Job Description

Working arrangement: United States (Remote - work from anywhere in the United States)

Build Intelligent Systems from Model to UI - and Everything in Between At BJAK, we’re using AI to reinvent how financial services work across Southeast Asia - making them smarter, simpler, and more inclusive. As a Full Stack AI Engineer, you’ll bridge machine learning and software engineering to deliver real AI-powered features into users’ hands.

This is a remote role based in the US, working closely with our Malaysia HQ and cross-functional regional teams. You’ll operate across the stack - from backend logic and ML integration to frontend delivery - building intelligent systems that scale fast and matter deeply.

Why This Role Matters

You’ll be the critical link between AI models and user-facing experiences

Your work will shape how millions of people interact with smart financial services

You’ll architect and deliver full-stack systems that combine backend, ML, and frontend layers

You’ll thrive in a lean, high-impact team where speed, ownership, and collaboration are everything

What You’ll Do

Build and deploy full-stack applications that incorporate ML models

Work with data scientists and ML engineers to integrate models into scalable backend systems

Develop APIs, backend services, and real-time data pipelines for intelligent features

Design clean, performant, and intuitive UIs that surface AI insights to users

Own the full development lifecycle - from architecture and testing to deployment and monitoring

Collaborate with product, design, and engineering teams to ship polished, end-to-end solutions

Continuously improve the performance, usability, and reliability of AI-integrated applications

You’ll Thrive Here If You...

Own the outcome, you care about impact, not just lines of code

Solve problems end-to-end, from data and systems to UI and user flow

Build fast and iterate even faster, V1 out now beats V3 someday

Move forward even in chaos, ambiguity, shifting priorities, and lean resources excite you

Think like a founder - you don’t wait to be told, you figure it out and ship

Learn aggressively, new tools, frameworks, and failures fuel your growth

Have the humility to learn from others and the drive to help them grow

Bring energy, clarity, and execution - and raise the bar for your team every day

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field

Strong proficiency in Python is a must

2 - 4 years of experience in full stack development (frontend + backend)

Strong programming skills in JavaScript (Node.js, React, or similar)

Experience integrating ML models into production systems

Familiarity with REST APIs, cloud deployment, and scalable architecture

Comfortable working with SQL/NoSQL databases and distributed systems

Strong grasp of software design patterns, testing, and debugging

Must be based in the US and open to remote collaboration with international teams

Nice to Have

Experience deploying ML models using tools like FastAPI, Flask, or TensorFlow Serving

Familiarity with modern frontend stacks like Next.js, Vue, or TypeScript

Exposure to ML tools like MLflow, Airflow, Docker, GCP, or AWS

Background in high-growth startups or agile product teams

Interest in explainable AI, visualizations, or surfacing complex ML outputs to end users

What You’ll Get

Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses

Remote-first setup with flexibility to work from anywhere in the US

High-impact, high-ownership role in a product-led AI company

Flat structure - your ideas are valued, and your code is seen

Fast-track growth with real visibility across engineering, data, and product

Regional exposure across Southeast Asia and the chance to shape products at scale
