(Senior) AI Engineer - Conversational AI Systems (m/w/d)

We are building a conversational AI experience at idealo – a product-aware assistant that helps users explore, compare, and decide on purchases through natural dialogue.

The system integrates capabilities like RAG-based access to product data, agent orchestration, and explainable result evaluation.

As an AI Engineer, you will combine conceptual thinking with hands-on engineering to design, implement, and evolve this AI-native experience.

You will stay up-to-date in this dynamic field, continuously testing the latest AI developments and integrating them into production systems when they meet a real business need.

You will work closely with our Fullstack Developers and AI Engineers, collaborating across the stack to deliver robust, scalable AI workflows that connect seamlessly with idealo’s product ecosystem.
