Applied AI & Automation Graduate Associate

We are looking for an ambitious individual with a genuine interest in AI, automation and building useful systems.

You will work directly with a founder to help design, build and improve a growing collection of AI powered tools, workflows and internal software.

This role is suited to somebody who spends their spare time experimenting with AI, building projects, testing new tools and finding better ways of doing things.

What You'll Be Doing

• Building and improving AI agent workflows
• Working extensively with OpenClaw
• Using Claude Code to design, build and iterate software
• Creating automations and multi agent systems
• Developing internal tools and dashboards
• Connecting APIs, databases and external systems
• Building workflows that combine AI models with business processes
• Testing new AI technologies and identifying practical use cases
• Turning ideas into working software quickly
• Improving and expanding existing systems

You will be expected to move rapidly from concept to implementation and continually improve what has already been built.

The Type of Person We're Looking For

You are likely someone who:

• Uses Claude Code regularly
• Has experimented with OpenClaw or similar agent frameworks
• Enjoys building things from scratch
• Is comfortable learning new technologies without formal training
• Has a strong curiosity about AI and automation
• Enjoys solving practical business problems
• Thinks commercially as well as technically
• Can identify inefficiencies and opportunities for improvement
• Takes ownership rather than waiting for instructions

Useful Experience

Experience in some of the following would be beneficial:

• OpenClaw
• Claude Code
• Anthropic APIs
• OpenAI APIs
• MCP servers and tools
• Python
• JavaScript or TypeScript
• APIs and integrations
• Databases
• Workflow automation
• Browser automation
• Web scraping
• Agent orchestration
• Git and GitHub

You do not need experience in every area.

What matters most is your ability to learn quickly, build useful solutions and figure things out independently.

What We're Interested In

We care far more about what you have built than what qualifications you hold.

Please include:

• Your CV
• GitHub profile (if applicable)
• Examples of projects, automations or tools you have built
• A brief explanation of the most interesting thing you have created
• Any examples of OpenClaw, Claude Code or AI agent workflows you have worked on

We are looking for someone who enjoys building, experimenting and improving systems, and who wants to be at the forefront of how AI is applied in a real and established business.
