Staff AI Engineer, Payments Intelligence

Who We Are

Yuno is the AI-native operating system of global commerce, powering the financial infrastructure of enterprise merchants, banks, and wallets. Through a single API, Yuno connects them to pay-ins, payouts, fraud prevention, KYC/KYB, and stablecoins globally, so they can operate everywhere. Agnostic by design and connected to 1,000+ payment methods and 460+ integrations in 190+ countries, Yuno optimizes acceptance rates, reduces costs, and strengthens security through specialized AI agents that learn from every transaction. Global brands including McDonald's, NetEase Games, GoFundMe, and Rappi run their payments on Yuno.

About The Role

Yuno is looking for a Staff AI Engineer to be the senior technical leader for Payments Intelligence — the unit building the AI agents and intelligence products that make payments smarter across the platform. You'll architect and build production AI-agent systems like AIDA and NOVA, shape how Yuno applies LLMs and agentic AI to real payment problems, and raise the technical bar for the engineers around you.

This is a hands-on AI leadership role at the frontier. You'll design agents that hold real conversations with customers, recover revenue, automate operations, and surface intelligence to merchants — all in a production, multi-market, compliance-sensitive environment. Your impact comes as much from setting the technical direction for agentic AI as from the systems you build.

What This Unit Owns

Yuno Agents (AIDA & NOVA) — AIDA, the agent that retrieves payment data and answers technical questions for support and operations teams; and NOVA, the agents that recover revenue by turning failed payments into intelligent, multilingual customer conversations across channels

AI Ops & Support — AI-driven automation that streamlines internal operations and customer support

Client Intelligence — the AI and data products that surface insight and intelligence to Yuno's merchants

How AI Shows Up in This Role

You're not adding AI to a product — you're building the AI that is the product: the agents, LLM pipelines, and intelligence systems at the core of Payments Intelligence

AI is our default execution layer: you're expected to use AI-assisted tooling fluently in your own work, and to define how the unit designs, evaluates, and ships agentic systems responsibly

Your Contribution Will Be

Agent architecture and technical leadership — own the architecture of Yuno's AI agents (AIDA, NOVA) and intelligence systems; set the technical direction for agentic AI and raise the bar for the team

Production LLM and agentic systems — design multi-step agents with tool use, orchestration, memory, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), engineered for reliability and low latency at scale

Conversational and multilingual experiences — build agents that hold real, dynamic customer conversations across channels (phone, WhatsApp) and 70+ languages, adapting to context and intent

Evaluation, safety, and guardrails — define how the unit measures agent quality and safety, with rigorous evaluation, observability, and guardrails so agents behave reliably in a compliance-sensitive, multi-market environment

Intelligence and data products — architect the client-intelligence systems that turn payment data into actionable insight for merchants

AI Ops automation — build the AI-driven automation that streamlines internal operations and support

Mentorship and cross-functional collaboration — mentor engineers and partner with Product, Data Science, and Staff Engineers across domains to ship complex, cross-team AI work

What Success Looks Like

Within your first 6–12 months, you've led the architecture of at least one core agent or intelligence capability, shipped agentic systems to production with real evaluation and guardrails behind them, and become the technical voice Yuno trusts on how to build AI agents responsibly at scale.

Requirements

  • ·Minimum Qualifications
  • ·Extensive software engineering experience, with a track record building and shipping production LLM or AI-agent systems
  • ·Deep expertise in agentic systems — multi-step agents, tool use, orchestration, memory, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
  • ·Strong LLM application skills — prompt engineering, evaluation, and guardrails for reliable, safe outputs

Benefits

  • ·Competitive Compensation
  • ·Remote Work — you can work from everywhere
  • ·Home Office Bonus — a one-time allowance to set up your ideal home office
