Our mission is to craft clean code and practical solutions with precision and purpose. We foster a dynamic culture rooted in strong engineering, a sense of ownership, and transparency, empowering our team. As part of the expanding VirtusLab Group, we offer a compelling environment for those seeking to make a substantial impact in the software industry within a forward-thinking organization. About the role We’re looking for an engineer to join a small, startup-like team building a desktop tool for local AI inference. You’ll work with Kotlin and Compose Desktop to create an application that deploys, configures and manages AI models running on local devices – think NVIDIA Spark, Claude Code, and Codex connected to locally hosted models. Your daily work will include building the UI in Compose Desktop, integrating with backend REST APIs for model deployment, and setting up agent configurations through TOML/JSON/YAML files. You’ll also work on LLM proxy routing and create installers for Windows, macOS and Linux. The team already has an internal MVP and talks directly with potential users. We’re on the road to making it open source. If you want to shape a developer tool from the early stages, this is it. Project Local Inference Platform Project Scope We are building a desktop application for deploying and configuring local inference on local devices (e.g. NVIDIA Spark / DGX Spark), managing model lifecycle (start/stop), and connecting coding agents like Claude Code and Codex to locally hosted models. Currently an internal MVP, on the road to open source. Tech Stack Kotlin, Compose Desktop (with JetPack Compose roots), kotlinx.coroutines Backend integration: REST APIs for model deployment management Agent layer: configuration files in toml/json/yaml, LLM proxy routing from agents to BE Packaging: native installers — msi (Windows), deb (Linux), dmg (macOS) Nice-to-have tooling: mitmproxy for HTTP debugging, LiteLLM/OpenRouter-style proxy layers. Challenges Building a desktop control plane for local AI agents that abstracts away the messy parts of running LLMs on heterogeneous hardware — model lifecycle, proxy routing, agent configuration, and OS-specific quirks (path separators, signing, packaging) — while keeping the system extensible enough to evolve toward open source. Visualising model statistics and system load on top of a backend that actually does the deployment. Team Small, startup-like team on the JetBrains side — no bureaucracy, direct contact with potential users, fast iteration. Code reviews as part of the process. What we expect in general Strong Kotlin skills and genuine interest in Compose Desktop as a UI framework Understanding of asynchronous and concurrent programming with Kotlin Coroutines Awareness of cross-platform differences (file paths, OS-specific packaging) Engineering pragmatism: cutting complexity while keeping the system extensible System-level thinking: understanding how UI, backend APIs, agent configs and proxy layers fit together Hands-on experience using LLMs daily, with the judgement to know when they help and when they don’t Fluency in English, with good communication skills for a remote-first team Self-motivation and the ability to take full ownership of features end-to-end Experience with different LLM agents and their configurations (nice to have) Experience with mitmproxy or similar HTTP traffic inspection tools (nice to have) Experience with LLM proxy layers such as LiteLLM or Openrouter (nice to have) Experience creating and signing OS installers (MSI, DEB, DMG – nice to have) A few perks of being with us Building tech community Flexible hybrid work model Home office reimbursement Language lessons MyBenefit points Private healthcare Training Package Virtusity / in-house training And a lot more!

As part of the expanding VirtusLab Group, we offer a compelling environment for those seeking to make a substantial impact in the software industry within a forward-thinking organization. About the role You will be responsible for building and owning data pipelines on a Spark Kubernetes cluster orchestrated with Airflow using PySpark. You will improve and introduce data validation and monitoring to ensure trustworthy data at every stage. Tasks will include provisioning and managing Azure resources using a mature Infrastructure as Code approach, as well as automating everything with GitHub Actions and maintaining CI/CD workflows. You will enhance monitoring to further improve the reliability and stability of deployed ML solutions using the Grafana/Prometheus stack. Additionally, you will collaborate with cross functional teams to ensure the seamless deployment and serving of ML models and actively shape the project’s technical roadmap and direction. Project: Loss Prevention Project Scope Loss prevention in retail involves the strategic implementation of processes and technologies designed to identify, mitigate, and prevent the disappearance of inventory. To achieve that an Engineering and a Data Science team within a major UK retailer partner to bridge the gap between experimental ML models and robust, production-grade systems. By embedding engineering excellence into the data science lifecycle, the team ensures that loss prevention insights are delivered with high reliability. In this project you will not only develop high-quality Python code, but also implement trustworthy data pipelines on a big Spark cluster orchestrated with Airflow, setup highly automated CI/CD pipelines with Github Actions, and provision Azure infrastructure as code with Terraform. Tech Stack Python, PySpark, Airflow Azure, IaC (Terraform), CI/CD (Github Actions), Observability (Grafana/Promotheus), MLOps, Kubernetes Challenges Establish a resilient MLOps Ecosystem by integrating robust observability, experiment tracking and automated deployment to model serving infrastructure. Improve the reliability and observability of data pipelines to guarantee trust-worthy data. Advancing DevOps Maturity through the implementation of standardized pipelines, enabling rapid iteration and minimizing manual intervention. Team 3 Engineers What we expect in general: Strong experience in writing high-quality Python code and deploying production-level projects. Proactiveness and a strong sense of ownership, taking full responsibility of project outcomes. Significant experience in Data Engineering, specifically with PySpark, data quality monitoring and workflow orchestration. Proficiency in Azure (or equivalent cloud providers) and hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code principles. Robust DevOps mindset with practical experience automating CI/CD pipelines via GitHub Actions. A dedicated team player with excellent communication skills who thrives within a cross-functional, collaborative environment. Good command of English (B2/C1 level), comfortable utilizing the language daily. A hybrid model is preferred (2-3 days per week in the Kraków office); alternatively, candidates must be available for on-site collaboration as required (approx. once a month). Seems like lots of expectations, huh? Don’t worry! You don’t have to meet all the requirements. What matters most is your passion and willingness to develop. Apply and find out!
