Fullstack AI Engineer (Senior) - IFS Logistics
Job description
A product-focused fullstack engineer role owning the audit and visibility product surface end to end within IFS Logistics, including the audit review queue, self-serve check configuration, and explainability interfaces. The role also involves mentoring a junior engineer and setting the product-side technical approach for the squad.
At a glance
- Work mode
- Remote · Netherlands
What you'll do
- Own the audit review queue at real scale — tens of thousands of findings per tenant, filtered, triaged, actioned and evidenced
- Build self-serve check configuration so customers can build, preview and version their own audit checks
- Build explainability for incorrect-charge detection — why a charge was flagged, against which rate card, at which version — reproducible months later for a dispute
- Write the Django endpoints, data contracts and pagination behaviour behind the product surface
- Define where the agent sits in each flow: agentic audit creation, human review at minimal, meaningful points, and the guardrails that make that safe against a customer's freight spend
- Set the approach for the product surface and partner directly with the squad's Product Lead on product
- Be the day-to-day mentor for the Junior engineer joining alongside you
- Raise quality standards in the squad: code review on all merge requests, no direct-to-prod, acceptance criteria per ticket
What we're looking for
- Around five to eight years building and shipping production software, with real depth in React, TypeScript, state and interaction design at scale
- Have owned a product surface end to end including the ambiguity in it — closed the open questions rather than waiting for someone to close them
- Genuinely fullstack: write the Python/Django side, argue about the API contract, and know when a client-side answer is the wrong answer
- Strong on performance and scale in the interface: pagination, virtualisation, server-side filtering, and knowing which of those the data volume actually demands
- Build human-in-the-loop and explainability interfaces and treat auditability as a feature, not logging
- Raise the bar on other people's work; review, pairing and direct feedback by default, and happy mentoring an engineer earlier in their career
- AI-native in practice: Cursor and Claude daily, good at giving an agent the right context, better at spotting when its output is confidently wrong
- Form and state a view; ambiguity is the job, not a blocker
- Based in either the UK or the Netherlands
Nice to have
- Design-system ownership, or working shoulder to shoulder with a designer on a complex data surface
- Django REST, BigQuery, dbt, Cube Cloud, GCP
- LLM agents, RAG or evals in production
- Shipped an agent that does real work, like agentic audit or fulfilment-rule automation, and the instinct to build a simulation to prove the logic first
- Logistics, supply chain, freight, or any finance-adjacent domain where being wrong costs money
