Dalton helps websites improve themselves. We're building a platform that continuously analyzes user behavior and automatically adapts UX and performance to maximize impact — no manual A/B testing, no guesswork.
We're an early-stage startup, just 7 months in. But in that time we've:
* Built and shipped the first version of our product
* Onboarded multiple recurring customers
* Raised pre-seed funding from top-tier angels (founders/operators of Belgian unicorns — announcement soon)
* Joined the Wintercircus hub in Ghent, one of the most exciting startup spaces in the country
We're now hiring an AI engineer to join us at the core of Dalton’s journey. If you’re a strong & experienced builder looking for real ownership, autonomy, and impact — we’d love to talk.
What You’ll Do
* Build key product features across the stack (TypeScript, React, Python)
* Collaborate closely with the founders (you’ll be working directly with our CTO)
* Help shape architectural decisions as we scale the platform
* Bring new ideas to the table — you’ll be involved in product thinking, not just coding
* Work on real customer problems and see the results of your work quickly
* Help define our technical culture and future team
What We’re Looking For
You should:
* Be confident in Python — this is essential
* Have experience in building GenAI production systems
* Interested or experienced in llm agent design & optimization
* Understand full-stack systems: APIs, databases, frontend performance
* Have a track record of shipping well-structured code quickly
* Enjoy working independently but thrive in a collaborative environment
* Willing to work at least 3 days/week on-site
Bonus Experience
* Working on UX, web performance, or conversion optimization
* Web analytics or A/B testing
* ML/AI in applied contexts like personalization or recommendations
* Thinking like a product owner: balancing speed, value, and usability
What We Offer
* Competitive salary
* Generous equity — we’re serious about shared upside
* A chance to join early and shape the product, culture, and direction
* Work directly with experienced founders and real customers
* A base in Ghent’s Wintercircus, alongside other high-growth startups
* A fast-paced, focused environment with room to grow
Why This Role Matters
This isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to join a company early enough to really shape it, but with just enough traction to de-risk the leap. We’re looking for someone who wants to build something meaningful, take ownership, and grow with us.
