About this role
About Petra Brands:
Petra Brands is a dynamic and innovative consumer products company that manages a diverse portfolio of brands, including House of Party, Fomin Soap, Roofus, Everymood, and Luna Naturals. We specialize in creating unique and memorable consumer packaged goods (CPG) in the party, craft, beauty, personal care, and lifestyle sectors.
Our mission is to deliver products that spark creativity, celebration, and connection — crafting experiences that evoke emotion, memories, and a sense of place through captivating brand identities and thoughtful packaging.
The Role:
We are looking for an AI Engineer who lives and breathes AI and thrives on building scalable, data-heavy systems. You will help us leverage AI, custom web applications, and automation to streamline operations, manage huge datasets, and modernize our business workflows.
This isn't a purely theoretical research role—it’s about getting things built and deployed. You will work across our group of retail and consumer businesses to find opportunities where AI can automate manual work, process high-volume data, and power intelligent enterprise systems like ERPs.
If you are a builder who regularly uses Claude, ChatGPT, and modern web frameworks to solve real-world operational problems, this role is for you.
What You'll Do:
- Architect and deploy custom web applications, ERP integrations, and automated workflows using AI models and modern web frameworks.
- Handle large volumes of corporate, financial, and supply chain data to create intelligent, automated data pipelines.
- Analyze existing workflows in finance and supply chain to identify high-impact areas for AI automation.
- Connect AI models (including Claude) and modern tech stacks with existing internal systems, databases, and third-party tools.
- Write, refine, and optimize prompts and leverage RAG architectures to deliver consistent, context-aware, and reliable AI outputs.
- Work alongside non-technical business teams to translate complex operational pain points into practical software solutions.
Core Technical Skills Needed:
- Languages: JavaScript or TypeScript.
- Frontend: React or Next.js.
- Databases: Relational databases like PostgreSQL.
- AI & Architecture: LLM integration and deep familiarity with AI concepts like RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation).
- Automation & Scripting: Comfort with workflow tools (Zapier, Make, or n8n) and scripting (Python or JS/TS).
What We're Looking For:
- Proven track record of working on data-intensive projects, web applications, and enterprise systems like ERPs.
- Direct experience building with AI models, specifically Claude, ChatGPT, or similar LLMs.
- Strong problem-solver who can break down messy processes
- Good communicator — can explain tech stuff to non-tech people
Nice To Have:
- Experience with RPA tools (UiPath, Automation Anywhere).
- Background in retail, e-commerce, or CPG agency environments.
- Proven track record of measuring ROI on automation and AI projects.
What We Offer:
- A chance to work with the exciting and rapidly growing global company.
- Career growth and professional development support.
- Competitive compensation with performance-based bonuses.
- A collaborative and supportive workplace culture that celebrates creativity.
