Senior Applied AI Engineer

Our agentic platform helps finance and operations teams worldwide remove manual work from their core business processes, so work runs end-to-end with greater control and significant productivity gains.

Today, over 550 enterprise customers use BLP across 1,300+ deployed projects. In the processes we automate, customers achieve productivity improvements of 5 to 10 times.

To date, BLP remains majority employee-owned, with Goldman Sachs holding a minority stake as a growth investor. Our success is driven by deep expertise in technology and business processes, a superior product with strong product-market fit, reflected in an expanding customer base that includes Fortune 500 companies.

BLP is one of Switzerland's fastest-growing SaaS scale-ups; we are now entering our next phase of growth. From our headquarters on Zürich's Bahnhofstrasse, we're expanding globally, with a growing presence across Europe and North America.

Join us and help make autonomous operations the new standard.

We're giving you the keys to the machine. As our Applied AI Engineer, you'll have a founder-level mandate to build and ship AI-powered internal tools that make our hiring, finance and ops workflows 10x faster, not 10% faster. You'll work at the frontier of what's possible with LLMs, AI agents, and emerging AI tooling, and apply it where it matters most: inside our own company.

• →

  Build and ship AI-powered internal tools fast: we're talking days and weeks, not quarters

• →

  Evaluate, integrate, and chain the latest AI models, APIs, and frameworks (LLMs, agent frameworks, embedding pipelines, AI coding tools) into production-ready internal solutions

• →

  Create compounding leverage: document and share each tool well enough that it frees up hours company-wide, not just for you

• →

  Write clean, maintainable code that integrates with our existing systems (APIs, databases, third-party services) and doesn't break at scale

• →

  Own your deployments end-to-end: build it, test it, ship it, monitor it, and build it well enough that it runs reliably without babysitting

• Technical background with real building experience: CS degree, bootcamp, self-taught, we don't care as long as you've shipped things that work

• You've built with modern AI tooling (LLMs, AI coding assistants, workflow automation) and you're obsessed with what's coming next

• Startup or entrepreneurial DNA: you've either founded something, built an internal tool that became critical infra, or hacked together solutions that people actually used

• You move fast, communicate clearly, and love collaborating with non-technical teams to understand their pain points and turn them into elegant, automated solutions

• Fluency in English, German is a plus

• Bonus: experience with tools like Make, n8n, Retool, Supabase, or similar, but honestly, we care more about your ability to learn any tool in a weekend

• Build from zero to one. Take ownership of our internal tooling landscape, shaping its foundations and direction from the ground up.

• A founder-level mandate. You decide what gets built and how, with direct access to the latest LLMs, agent frameworks, and AI coding tools.

• Speed as the standard. Ship in days and weeks, not quarters, and see your tools change how the company runs within the same month.
