A bit about Smartly, a Datacom company

Our slick software combined with our awesome support team help businesses pay their people on time, accurately and in line with legislation. Which I’m sure you’d agree is important stuff.
We wholeheartedly believe that if you put people first, everyone wins. Great employees and great employee relationships are still one of the most valuable things a business can have. Look after them, and success however you measure it gets easier. Your people win, your customers win, you win.

- Build and maintain intelligent agents that can assist in code reviews, test case generation, and identifying performance bottlenecks.
- Collaborate with engineering teams to identify opportunities for process automation and drive continuous improvements.
- Integrate AI solutions into our existing development tools and workflows to improve efficiency and reduce manual tasks.
- Analyse and improve the performance and scalability of AI agents in a fast-paced SaaS environment.
- Work closely with product and engineering teams to define key success metrics and ensure alignment with business objectives.
- Stay up-to-date with the latest AI trends and technologies, and continuously evaluate new tools that can enhance the SDLC.

- Proven experience as an AI Solution Architect or similar role, with a strong understanding of AI/ML principles and their applications in software development.
- Deep expertise in building and deploying AI agents that automate software development processes.
- Strong background in software engineering and an understanding of SDLC, with the ability to design solutions that enhance developer productivity.
- Hands-on experience with AI frameworks, cloud platforms, and development tools.
- Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a proven track record of identifying automation opportunities.
