Hands-on senior IC role · Deep-tech AI startup
Reporting to: CTO
Contract: Full-time, permanent
Tikos is building a next‑generation decision‑reasoning platform that combines distributed systems with applied AI. We are a small, technically led team solving problems that genuinely lack a textbook answer, and we are seeking a Senior Software Engineer who wants to roll up their sleeves and help us crack them.
This is a hands‑on individual contributor role. You will write production code daily, shape how our AI services are built, and work closely with the CTO on architectural decisions. You will not be running a team or owning compliance frameworks; your focus is on engineering excellence on hard problems.
If you are energised by small‑team ownership, fast feedback loops, and seeing your work go from notebook to production in weeks rather than quarters, you will feel at home here.
