Smart Working is hiring an experienced and AI-fluent AI-Powered Product Engineer to design, build, and enhance an AI-powered education platform — fully remote from the UAE. This ownership-driven role spans the full product lifecycle from concept through delivery, combining full-stack development in Rails, HTML/CSS, JavaScript, and Hotwire with modern AI tooling and a strong emphasis on UX quality. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to shape the product using customer insights and data-driven decisions — owning features end-to-end with genuine autonomy and creative input.
About This AI-Powered Product Engineering Opportunity
Company: Smart Working — building an AI-powered education platform that transforms how people learn and work
Role Scope: Full-stack product engineering — frontend and backend — with modern AI tooling integration and UX quality at the forefront
Ownership: Own features from concept through delivery — collaborating cross-functionally and shaping the product with customer insights and data
Working Style: Fully remote, UAE-based — delivering high-quality, AI-enhanced engineering with genuine product autonomy
Why This AI Product Engineer Role Stands Out
End-to-End Feature Ownership: Take features from idea through design, development, testing, and delivery — with real product influence and creative input
AI Tooling Integration: Apply modern AI tools directly into the education platform — not just using AI but actively engineering AI-enhanced product features
Rails + Hotwire Mastery: Work with a modern, productive full-stack including Rails, Hotwire, Turbo, and Stimulus — one of the most elegant web development stacks available
Education Impact: Build technology that genuinely improves how people learn — a meaningful and fast-growing sector with global demand
Position Overview
This AI-Powered Product Engineer at Smart Working designs, builds, and enhances an AI-powered education platform — owning features from concept through delivery and collaborating with cross-functional teams to shape the product using customer insights and data-driven decisions. The role focuses on full-stack development with Rails, HTML/CSS/JavaScript/Hotwire, and modern AI tooling, with responsibilities spanning frontend and backend work and a strong emphasis on UX quality — making this an ideal opportunity for an experienced full-stack engineer who combines technical depth with product thinking, AI fluency, and a commitment to user experience excellence.
Why This Role Matters: As AI-Powered Product Engineer at Smart Working in the UAE, you are not just a developer executing tickets — you are a product-minded engineer who owns the full journey from idea to shipped feature on an AI-powered education platform that is changing how people learn. Combining Rails full-stack expertise with modern AI tooling, Hotwire’s reactive UX patterns, and genuine product ownership in a remote-first environment, this role offers technically strong engineers the rare combination of high autonomy, real impact, and AI-era product engineering craft.
Key Responsibilities
AI-Powered Platform Design & Feature Development
- Design, build, and enhance features on an AI-powered education platform — owning each feature from concept and requirements through development, testing, and production delivery
- Integrate modern AI tooling into platform features — applying AI to improve learning experiences, personalisation, content delivery, and educational outcomes
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, and business teams to shape platform direction using customer insights and data-driven decision-making
- Contribute to product strategy through technical perspective — advocating for engineering-informed product decisions that balance user needs and business goals
Full-Stack Development — Frontend & Backend
- Develop robust backend features using Ruby on Rails — RESTful APIs, database design, business logic, and server-side rendering
- Build reactive, high-quality frontend interfaces using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Hotwire, Turbo, and Stimulus — delivering fast, modern UX without heavyweight frontend frameworks
- Maintain a strong emphasis on UX quality throughout — ensuring every feature delivers a seamless, intuitive, and accessible user experience
- Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code — applying engineering best practices across the full stack
Data-Driven Iteration & Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Use customer insights, usage data, and product analytics to drive decisions about feature design, prioritisation, and iteration
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams including product management, design, and operations to align development with platform goals
- Continuously improve platform quality, performance, and AI capability through evidence-based engineering and product iteration
Ideal Candidate Profile
Essential Skills
- Strong full-stack development experience — Ruby on Rails, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and modern frontend patterns
- Hands-on experience with Hotwire (Turbo + Stimulus) for reactive, server-rendered web application development
- Familiarity with modern AI tooling and experience integrating AI capabilities into web products or features
- Product-minded engineering approach — ability to own features end-to-end from concept through delivery
- Strong UX sensibility — attention to interaction quality, accessibility, and user experience throughout development
- Ability to use customer insights and data to inform technical and product decisions collaboratively
- Comfortable working autonomously in a fully remote, asynchronous engineering environment
