True Classic is looking for an AI Engineer to design, build, and deploy AI‑powered applications and workflows that solve real business problems across the company. In this hands‑on, execution‑focused role, you will work cross‑functionally to integrate AI into how we acquire customers, maximize lifetime value, and streamline operations. You’ll thrive here if you’re a problem solver first—someone who would rather ship solutions than wait on specs or build slide decks. You’re comfortable writing clean, production‑ready code, moving quickly, and turning ambiguous problems into real, working systems that drive impact. All True Classic roles are global and omni‑channel, driving accountability across product categories, regions, and sales/marketing channels. This role will allow you to impact operations worldwide, ensuring alignment with our business objectives and delivering success across diverse markets and platforms.

- Build AI agents, automation pipelines, and LLM‑powered features across acquisition, retention, and operations
- Implement and integrate RESTful APIs for efficient, secure data access and exchange across our tech stack
- Write clean, maintainable, production‑quality code across Python, React, Node.js, and other relevant frameworks
- Deploy and manage applications on AWS and other cloud platforms using modern CI/CD pipelines
- Partner with marketing, finance, operations, and commercial teams to solve their hardest problems
- Perform code reviews, enforce best practices, and drive continuous improvement
- Evaluate and implement AI tools that fit our stack — and stay at the frontier to bring new capabilities in
Cross‑Functional Collaboration
- Marketing: AI‑powered acquisition, creative testing, audience targeting, and lifecycle tools
- eCommerce & Product: Personalization, search, merchandising, and conversion optimization
- Operations: Automation of high‑friction workflows across supply chain and fulfillment
- Finance & BI: Connect AI initiatives to revenue, margin, and efficiency KPIs
- Commercial Channels: Solutions that work across DTC, wholesale, marketplace, and international
Qualifications
- Professional experience in AI engineering or software development
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field
- Strong expertise in AI prompting, engineering workflows, and working with LLMs (Claude, OpenAI, or similar)
- Proficiency in Python, React, Node.js, Express.js — SQL/PostgreSQL a plus
- Hands‑on experience with cloud and DevOps: AWS, Heroku, GitHub CI/CD
- Strong understanding of RESTful API design and implementation
- Systems thinker who can architect end‑to‑end solutions, not just point fixes
- Creative, tenacious, and hungry — thrives in ambiguity and moves with urgency
