💚 About Uxia

At Uxia, we’re reinventing how user testing is done using AI.

Born in Barcelona in 2025, we’re building a future where Product and Design teams can validate ideas instantly, without needing to recruit real users, wait for days or spend fortunes. Our synthetic testers help companies learn faster, iterate smarter, and build products users truly love.

We’re backed by leading investors such as ABAC Nest and Encomenda, and supported by top executives from Clarity AI, Oracle, and Scopely.

Now, we’re expanding our engineering team in Barcelona and looking for a Founding AI Engineer to join our small but mighty team, someone ready to push the boundaries of what’s possible with large language models and UX automation.

📎 What You’ll Do

  • Build and optimize AI models that simulate realistic user behavior and feedback.
  • Design and develop agentic workflows that enable synthetic users to interact intelligently with digital products.
  • Work closely with the product team to create seamless, intelligent testing pipelines.
  • Develop and fine-tune LLM-based systems that analyze designs, prototypes, and usability flows.
  • Implement and experiment with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), Evals, and other techniques to improve model reliability and insight quality.
  • Explore and apply state-of-the-art methods in NLP, generative AI, and synthetic data generation.
  • Help shape the technical foundations of a fast-growing, AI-first startup.

💪 Who You Are

  • You have 3+ years of experience working with AI or ML models (LLMs, NLP, or generative systems).
  • Hands-on experience with prompt engineering, model fine-tuning, and API integrations.
  • Experience building or working with agentic models or multi-step reasoning systems.
  • Hands-on experience working with image or vision recognition models (e.g. CLIP, BLIP, or multimodal LLMs) is a strong plus.
  • Comfortable working in unstructured, fast-paced environments, where experimentation and iteration are part of the process.
  • You’re curious, self-driven, excited to help define the next era of UX research and deeply committed to making that vision a reality. At Uxia, we all give 200% to everything we do, driven by purpose, speed, and impact.

⭐️ Nice to Have

  • Experience working in early-stage startups.
  • Knowledge of web development technologies (NodeJS / React / NextJS)
  • Experience with non-relational databases (MongoDB)

🚀 Why Joining Uxia

  • Be part of the founding engineering team of a pre-seed AI startup backed by top investors and tech leaders.
  • Build groundbreaking technology that transforms how companies understand their users.
  • Enjoy the freedom to shape key technical decisions and influence the product from the ground up.
  • Competitive salary and stock options (40k-50k base + stock)
  • Join a small, ambitious, super hard-working and global-minded team on a mission to reinvent user testing with AI.
