AI engineer – Al Nahiya Group
Ekthar works at the intersection of wildlife protection and conservation. We are building an internal AI capability from scratch — a small, hands-on team that will design and ship agents, automations, and internal platforms that make the rest of the organization faster, sharper, and more data-driven. This is a builder’s seat, not a research seat. The Role You will join a small founding team responsible for delivering AI-powered solutions across Ekthar. You will own problems end-to-end — scoping, building, deploying, and maintaining the agents and platforms that support our mission. What you’ll do • Build AI agents and workflows that solve real, named problems for our operations, field, research, and leadership teams. • Ship internal platforms — small tools, dashboards, and agentic systems — end to end. You design it, you build it, you maintain it. • Work fluently across n8n, OpenClaw, custom Python/TypeScript, and orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, Claude Agent SDK, or similar). • Decide pragmatically between cloud LLMs (Claude, GPT, Gemini) and local/self-hosted models (Llama, Qwen, Mistral via Ollama, vLLM, or LM Studio) based on cost, privacy, and latency. • Integrate with the tools the organization already uses (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, GIS and conservation data sources, etc.). • Help define the team’s stack, standards, and roadmap. We expect strong opinions, loosely held.
