Description

Datarails is growing, and we're looking for a passionate, curious AI Adoption Specialist to join our R&D team!

Datarails is a SaaS B2B solution solving one of the biggest challenges in finance: transforming scattered Excel-based processes into streamlined, cloud-based systems. We help finance professionals gain control, clarity, and insight over their data — from reports to forecasts to deep analytics. Now, we’re ready to take the next step by embedding AI into the way we build software. This is where you come in: helping our R&D teams embrace AI-powered development tools, workflows, and possibilities. If you're excited about exploring the latest AI technologies, influencing engineering culture, and making a real impact—this is the role for you.

What You'll Do

Drive the adoption of AI-based development tools and workflows across the R&D organization.

● Identify, evaluate, and experiment with emerging AI technologies that can enhance developer productivity and code quality.

● Work closely with developers, team leads, and stakeholders to integrate AI into day-to-day development processes.

● Act as a cross-team enabler, helping teams overcome technical and cultural barriers to AI adoption.

● Lead internal initiatives, workshops, and knowledge-sharing sessions to promote AI-driven practices.

● Stay up to date with the latest AI tools, SDKs, and developer-focused platforms, and assess their relevance to our tech stack and workflows.

Requirements

● Proven software development experience, with hands-on familiarity with modern IDEs, developer tools, and workflows.

● Deep interest in AI and its applications in software engineering – including copilots, AI-assisted programming, and code generation.

● Demonstrated ability to take initiative, experiment, and lead change across teams.

● Strong communication and collaboration skills – comfortable influencing engineers and managers alike.

● Ability to think strategically and translate AI potential into practical engineering wins.

● Experience in R&D organizations or platform/DevEx roles – advantage.

● Prior experience with AI tooling, prompt engineering, or LLM-based integrations – advantage.

What We Offer

  • We offer a supportive, agile, and creative work environment with brilliant colleagues!
  • Competitive compensation, ongoing recognition, and most of all, a chance to learn, contribute, and develop your skills.
  • Opportunity to join an explosive industry, a successful and growing organization, and an unmatched leadership team that is passionate about their employees!
  • Most of all, we will give you fun, enthusiasm, support, a passion for healthy living, and never a dull moment!
