AI Systems Engineer

About Noon Academy

Ops Os

Ai Systems Engineers

Role Summary

What You'Ll Do

• Investigate real problems — sit with ops teams and school leads to deeply understand what's broken before writing a line of code.
• Build fast — go from messy problem → spec → working prototype in days, not months. We use Claude Code, Cursor, Replit, and every AI tool that makes us faster.
• Ship products, not scripts — build real, production-quality tools with great UX (React/TypeScript, Supabase, APIs). Our users are internal Nooners, students, teachers, and school staff. Each user deserves thoughtful designs!
• Design systems that compound — think in loops, not features. Data → insight → action → feedback → better data.
• Own your domain end-to-end — from problem discovery to adoption. If nobody uses it, we haven't succeeded.

What We'Re Looking For

• You think before you build. You can explain a problem to a non-technical person in 30 seconds.
• You're fast. Ruthlessly good at scoping: 80% of the impact with 20% of the effort.
• You're strong in data & SQL, AI/LLMs, and product engineering.
• You’re eager to learn and adopt new tools and ways of working.
• You build things that work, not things that look impressive on a slide.
• You communicate clearly — in writing, in demos, in Slack. No jargon.
• You don't wait to be told. You find the problem, propose the solution, and drive it.
• Fluent in Arabic and English
• Based in Riyadh (or able to relocate by an agreed date)

Bonus Points

• Experience with event-driven architectures or operational systems.
• You've built internal tools or ops platforms before.
• You've used AI coding tools (Cursor, Copilot, Claude) to move 5x faster and ship real products.
• Why Noon?
• Real impact — your work directly affects how thousands of students learn every day.
• Speed and autonomy — small team, big problems, zero bureaucracy.
• AI-native culture — we don't just talk about AI, we build with it daily.
• Well-funded — Series B closed, substantial recurring revenue, and accelerating.
• Mission that matters — every student deserves world-class teachers. We're making it happen.

Benefits

• Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)

• Performance-based bonus
• 21 days of annual leave
• Full premium Medical coverage, including Family Dependent
• If you're a builder who wants to solve hard problems in education and create something students talk about for years to come, we would love to talk to you.
• Noon Academy is the leading edtech platform in the Middle East, with over 14 million students and teachers using our app to learn, teach, and collaborate.
• We have recently raised $41 million in Series B funding to expand our reach and impact in the region and beyond.
• We are on a mission to transform the physical classroom experience by introducing our highly engaging social, group-based learning and AI to make learning fun and improve learning efficacy.
• Our ultimate goal is to provide access to the best teachers to every student even if that teacher is only available virtually.
• We believe we can do this if we blend AI, peer-to-peer learning, and a carefully designed physical space.
