AI-Assisted Development
We actively encourage the use of AI tools such as ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Claude and similar
tools as part of our development workflow.
However, AI is there to assist you — not do the job for you.
We’re looking for someone who uses AI to:
-
Research and learn new technologies.
-
Investigate bugs and find potential solutions.
-
Explore different approaches.
-
Speed up repetitive development tasks.
-
Review and improve code.
-
Generate ideas and test cases.
You must be able to understand, review, test, modify and debug AI-assisted code and explain
why your chosen solution works.
We are not looking for someone who simply generates a website using AI without understanding the underlying code.
