# AI Engineer - Valsoft

> Valsoft Corporation · Beirut, Lebanon (Hybrid) · Full-time · Posted 2026-05-11

**Workplace:** hybrid

**Department:** Research & Development

## Description

Aspire Software is looking for a AI Engineer to join our team in Lebanon.

**Here is a little window into our company:** Aspire Software operates and manages wholly owned software companies, providing mission-critical solutions across multiple verticals. By implementing industry best practices, Aspire delivers a time sensitive integration process, and the operation of a decentralized model has allowed it to become a hub for creating rapid growth by reinvesting in its portfolio.

About the job:

How we work with AI

-   AI is a teammate, not a magic wand. We expect you to use it daily for code generation, refactoring, debugging, and code review — and to be honest about its limits. Verify, don't trust blindly.
-   Velocity matters. This is a one-developer project supporting a real HR team. We ship multiple changes per day and iterate based on direct user feedback. We do not do month-long rewrites.
-   You own the judgment. Architecture, security, and data-correctness decisions are yours. AI tools accelerate execution; they don't replace thinking about edge cases (a single bad salary record can blow up a $50M number — ask me how I know).
-   You'll work directly with the user. No PM, no ticket queue. Conversations happen in Teams or a short weekly sync. Bring context, ask before assuming, push back when needed.

What you'll do

-   Refactor the frontend into a modular, component-based architecture (React / Vue / Svelte — your call, with reasoning). Preserve all existing functionality and visual design.
-   Move data off disk to a real database (Postgres or our existing Supabase) with proper migrations and a query layer.
-   Harden security. Replace the current token-based auth with proper session management, add MFA for admins, add audit logging for sensitive views, pen-test the upload endpoints.
-   Set up CI/CD. GitHub Actions for linting, type-check, automated tests, preview deployments. Today every change goes straight to production.
-   Add observability. Error tracking (Sentry or similar), basic uptime/perf monitoring, structured server logs.
-   Document the data pipeline. From BambooHR weekly export → CSV upload → application state. Today this lives in scattered Python and JS.

## Requirements

-   5+ years full-stack: modern JS/TS frontend framework, Node.js, Postgres, REST/JSON APIs.
-   Strong opinions on incremental refactoring over rewrites. We can't afford a 6-month "stop the world" rebuild.
-   Experience with auth (OAuth/SSO, RBAC), security best practices, and threat modeling.
-   DevOps fluency: CI/CD pipelines, environment management, monitoring/alerting.
-   Comfortable with charting libraries (Chart.js, D3, or similar).
-   AI fluency. Daily use of AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar) — comfortable shipping production code with AI in the loop, while exercising independent judgment on architecture and security. Bonus if you've built features that call LLM APIs directly (the existing
-   Roster chatbot and the planned HR-Jira automation agent will benefit).

Nice to have

-   HR or workforce-analytics domain experience.
-   Experience with Render, Supabase, or BambooHR's API.
-   Python (for the weekly export pipeline).

Success looks like, after 6 months

-   Frontend split into a maintainable codebase with tests.
-   Page-load and tab-switch times measurably faster (target: ≤1s for first meaningful paint).
-   All data persisted in the database with migrations and backups.
-   Auth + audit + monitoring in place; no production incidents from missing observability.
-   Same HR team using it, no regressions, plus a documented runbook for future contributors.
