Build Intelligent Systems from Model to UI — and Everything in Between

At BJAK, we’re reimagining financial services across Southeast Asia with AI, making them smarter, simpler, and more inclusive. As a Full Stack AI Engineer, you’ll bridge the gap between machine learning and software engineering to bring intelligent features directly into users’ hands. This is not a traditional ML research role. We’re not looking for someone to train models from scratch; we’re looking for a builder who knows how to integrate ML models into robust, scalable, user-facing applications.

This hybrid role is based in Malaysia, and you’ll collaborate closely with teams across product, data, and engineering.

Why This Role Matters

  • You’ll be the critical link between AI models and user-facing features

  • Your work will define how intelligence is delivered to millions of users

  • You’ll build end-to-end systems that combine backend, ML, and frontend engineering

  • You’ll thrive in a lean, fast-moving team that values bold execution and real-world impact

What You’ll Do

  • Build and deploy full-stack applications that leverage machine-learning models.

  • Collaborate with ML engineers and data scientists to integrate models into production.

  • Develop backend services, APIs, and pipelines to power intelligent features.

  • Build intuitive and performant UIs that surface AI insights clearly and meaningfully.

  • Own the full development lifecycle: architecture, implementation, testing, deployment, and monitoring.

  • Work with product, design, and engineering teams to deliver seamless user experiences.

  • Continuously improve the performance, scalability, and reliability of AI-integrated systems.

You’ll Thrive Here If You...

  • Love shipping fast - you’d rather launch V1 this week than perfect V3 six months later.

  • Treat every problem as your own, regardless of scope or title

  • Enjoy switching hats - builder, debugger, architect, and product thinker when needed

  • Believe clarity comes from action - prototype, test, and iterate without waiting for perfect plans

  • Stay calm and effective in startup chaos - shifting priorities and building from zero doesn’t faze you

  • See feedback and failure as part of growth - you're here to level up

  • Believe “done” beats “perfect,” but still care deeply about UX and code quality

  • Show up with humility, hunger, and hustle, and lift up others as you go

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field

  • 2–4 years of experience in full stack development (frontend + backend)

  • Strong coding skills in Python and JavaScript (Node.js, React) or similar stacks

  • Experience integrating machine learning models into production applications

  • Solid understanding of API development, RESTful services, and cloud deployment

  • Comfortable working with SQL/NoSQL databases and scalable system architecture

  • Proficient in debugging, testing, and modern software design best practices

  • Based in Malaysia and open to hybrid work from our Petaling Jaya HQ

Nice to Have

  • Experience with tools like FastAPI, Flask, and TensorFlow Serving for ML model deployment

  • Familiarity with frontend frameworks like Next.js, Vue, or TypeScript

  • Exposure to ML lifecycle and ops tools (MLflow, Airflow, Docker, GCP/AWS)

  • Experience in high-growth startup or agile product development teams

  • Understanding of AI explainability and data visualization in user interfaces

What You’ll Get

  • Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses

  • Hybrid flexibility - work from home and collaborate in-office at HQ

  • High-impact role with visibility across product, data, and engineering

  • Flat structure - your work is seen, your ideas are heard

  • Fast learning curve and accelerated growth in a mission-driven company

  • Regional exposure across Southeast Asian markets
