About Seerist

Seerist is a threat intelligence SaaS company that provides enterprise and government customers with AI-driven analysis of global events. Our platform processes millions of documents daily, combining structured data pipelines with machine learning to deliver early warning and situational awareness at scale. We are building toward a future where agentic AI systems amplify human analysts and automate operational workflows across the business.

Role Overview

The AI Enablement Engineer is a cross-functional technical role responsible for identifying, designing, and deploying AI-powered solutions across every part of Seerist. This person will work with stakeholders in IT, HR, customer support, sales, product, engineering, and operations to find high-leverage opportunities where large language models, agentic workflows, and intelligent automation can transform how the company operates.

This is not a research role. The focus is on shipping working systems that deliver measurable value: reducing manual effort, accelerating decision-making, and building the operational infrastructure for an AI-native company. The right person combines strong software engineering fundamentals with practical experience deploying LLM-based systems in production.

• Translate business requirements into technical specifications and deliver working solutions
• Train and support internal teams on AI tools and workflows

• Contribute to Seerist's broader AI and platform strategy in partnership with the CTO
