View Accra rolesWhat we are building
Zof AI is hiring a small number of exceptional people to help build world-class AI products.
We are currently hiring across two locations: San Francisco and Accra. Each location is designed for high-agency people who want to work with intensity, use the best AI tools available, and contribute directly to the development of ambitious AI systems.
In Accra, we are building a focused, hacker-house-inspired environment where selected team members can live and build together with major daily needs supported. The goal is to remove distractions and create the conditions for exceptional work.
In San Francisco, we are building close to the center of the AI ecosystem, with proximity to customers, partners, technical leaders, and frontier product development.
Across both locations, the standard is the same: high ownership, strong discipline, fast learning, clear communication, and a deep commitment to building products that matter.
Why Zof AI
Zof AI is building advanced AI products for teams that need more confidence, speed, and operational clarity. We are assembling a small team of people who can think deeply, execute quickly, and take ownership of important work.
We are intentionally hiring carefully. The goal is not to build a large team quickly. The goal is to build the right team with the right environment, expectations, tools, and operating rhythm.
Two locations, one standard
San Francisco and Accra offer different environments, but the standard is the same in both locations: high ownership, strong judgment, technical excellence, clear communication, and deep commitment to building world-class AI products.

Senior Software Engineer, AI Products
Zof AI is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to help build advanced AI products and infrastructure. This role is for a highly capable engineer who can operate across the stack, work through ambiguity, make strong technical decisions, and build production-quality systems with speed and discipline. The ideal candidate is AI-native, deeply technical, and comfortable using modern AI tools to increase engineering velocity without compromising quality.
Competitive salary
Software Engineer, Level 2 / Junior
Zof AI is seeking high-potential Software Engineers who are early in their careers but demonstrate exceptional curiosity, discipline, and learning velocity. This role is designed for builders who want to grow quickly, work closely with senior engineers, use AI tools deeply, and contribute to meaningful product development from the beginning.
Competitive salary
AI Engineer
Zof AI is seeking an AI Engineer to build product features on top of frontier model APIs. This role owns the model-facing layer of our products: retrieval and RAG pipelines, agent planning and orchestration, multi-agent frameworks, and the context engineering that makes AI systems reliable in production. If you have worked as a GenAI Engineer, LLM Engineer, RAG Engineer, or Algorithm Engineer, this is that discipline at Zof AI. The ideal candidate has shipped LLM-powered features to real users and treats quality, cost, and latency as engineering constraints, not afterthoughts.
Competitive salary
Machine Learning Engineer
Zof AI is seeking a Machine Learning Engineer for the traditional ML discipline: training, fine-tuning, and evaluating models rather than only building on top of them. This role owns datasets, training pipelines, and the applied models that power verification and quality systems inside our products. The ideal candidate is rigorous about evaluation, comfortable owning the full model lifecycle, and pragmatic about when a trained model beats an API call.
Competitive salary
AI Infrastructure Engineer
Zof AI is seeking an AI Infrastructure Engineer to own the platform our AI systems run on. This is a consolidated platform role spanning what the market posts as AI Infrastructure, MLOps, LLMOps, and agent platform engineering: model serving and scaling, GPU and compute efficiency, and the provisioning, observability, and reliability infrastructure that keeps production agents stable. The ideal candidate has operated real AI workloads in production and builds infrastructure that lets a small team run systems well above its weight.
Competitive salary
Forward Deployed Engineer
Zof AI is seeking a Forward Deployed Engineer to embed with enterprise customers and make AI agents work in their environment. This role owns the full arc from business intent to shipped outcome: scoping the real problem, deploying and optimizing agents in live customer systems, embedding them into enterprise platforms and workflows, and staying accountable until the outcome is delivered and verified. The ideal candidate is a strong engineer who thrives in front of customers and measures success in working systems, not demos.
Competitive salary
Evals Engineer
Zof AI is seeking an Evals Engineer to build the tests that determine whether AI actually works. Verification is the heart of what Zof AI does, so this role sits close to the core of the product: designing eval suites, verification harnesses, and quality gates that confirm AI systems built the right thing, part QA discipline and part domain judgment. The ideal candidate is skeptical by default, rigorous about measurement, and motivated by turning "it seems to work" into evidence.
Competitive salary
AI Product Manager
Zof AI is seeking an AI Product Manager to own product decisions where model behavior meets business value. This role owns the trade-offs that define AI products: cost versus quality versus latency, what to automate versus verify, and what "good enough to ship" means, backed by evals rather than intuition. The ideal candidate has shipped AI-powered products, communicates precisely, and can hold both customer outcomes and model realities in view at once.
Competitive salary
GTM Engineer
Zof AI is seeking a GTM Engineer to win deals with working software. This role builds the custom demos and proof-of-concepts that prove value before a contract is signed, carries technical credibility through the sales cycle, and uses AI agents to run a leveraged go-to-market motion: research, enrichment, and follow-up handled by automation so humans spend their time where it counts. If you have worked as a Sales Engineer, Solutions Consultant, or in technical pre-sales, this is that discipline evolved. The ideal candidate builds fast, communicates clearly, and enjoys being the technical proof in the room.
Competitive salary
Enterprise Account Executive
Zof AI is seeking an Enterprise Account Executive to own long, multi-stakeholder enterprise deals from first conversation to signed contract. This is agent-augmented selling: AI handles research, account intelligence, and follow-up so the AE spends their time on relationships, navigation, and closing. The ideal candidate has closed enterprise software deals, is credible with technical and executive buyers alike, and wants to help define a repeatable sales motion rather than inherit one.
Competitive salary
Solutions Architect
Zof AI is seeking a Solutions Architect to design how our product actually lands in each customer environment. This role owns the technical implementation design per customer and the full contract-to-production onboarding arc, and turns AI capability into business cases and rollout sequencing that enterprise stakeholders can commit to. If you have worked as an Implementation Consultant or AI Consultant / Strategist, this role consolidates those disciplines. The ideal candidate pairs strong architecture judgment with the consulting skill to make a rollout succeed organizationally, not just technically.
Competitive salary
AI Customer Success Manager
Zof AI is seeking an AI Customer Success Manager to make customers successful after launch and prove it. This is technical customer success: driving adoption, being the first line for debugging and optimizing customer AI deployments, and turning outcomes into evidence that powers renewals and expansion. If you have worked as a Customer Success Engineer, this role consolidates that discipline with account ownership. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable reading a trace and running an executive business review.
Competitive salary
Head of Marketing
Zof AI is seeking a Head of Marketing to own how we tell our story to a technical, high-standard audience. This is a hands-on, builder-level marketing role for someone who can shape positioning, run demand generation, and turn a serious AI product into a clear, credible narrative. The ideal candidate writes well, thinks strategically, moves fast, and is comfortable owning marketing end to end in an early-stage environment.
Competitive salary
Content & Communications Manager
Zof AI is seeking a Content & Communications Manager to produce clear, high-quality content that explains a technical AI product to a discerning audience. This role is for a strong writer and editor who can turn complex ideas into compelling articles, docs, and campaigns, and who uses AI tools to research and scale output without losing accuracy or voice.
Competitive salary
Developer Advocate
Zof AI is seeking a Developer Advocate to be the bridge between our product and the developers who use it. This role combines technical credibility with strong communication: building demos and examples, creating technical content, engaging with the community, and bringing developer feedback back into the product. The ideal candidate can code, explain clearly, and genuinely enjoys helping other builders succeed.
Competitive salary
Product Designer
Zof AI is seeking a Product Designer to shape how our AI products look, feel, and work. This role spans product and brand: designing clear, elegant interfaces for complex functionality, contributing to the design system, and raising the visual quality bar across the product and marketing surfaces. The ideal candidate has strong craft, good product judgment, and moves quickly from idea to prototype.
Competitive salary
Conversation Designer
Zof AI is seeking a Conversation Designer to shape how our AI talks to the people who depend on it: tone, flow, and above all how it handles uncertainty. When the AI is confident, unsure, or wrong, what it says next is a designed decision, and this role owns it. Sitting between design, product, and AI engineering, the ideal candidate treats language as an interface, tests their work against real transcripts, and knows that trust in an AI product is won or lost sentence by sentence.
Competitive salary
AI Legal & Policy Counsel
Zof AI is seeking an AI Legal & Policy Counsel to own the legal and governance foundation an enterprise AI company needs: IP and data rights, customer contracts, EU AI Act and emerging AI regulation, and the assurance posture enterprise buyers ask about, aligned to standards like ISO/IEC 42001. This role also carries the AI audit and assurance mandate: making our compliance story verifiable, not just asserted. We are open to a fractional arrangement early with a path to full-time. The ideal candidate advises concretely because they understand how the systems actually work.
Competitive salary
Operations Lead / Chief of Staff
Zof AI is seeking an Operations Lead / Chief of Staff to help the company run well as it grows. This is a high-trust, high-ownership role spanning operations, hiring support, planning, and execution: building the systems and rhythms that let a small, ambitious team move fast. The ideal candidate is organized, resourceful, discreet, and comfortable owning the unglamorous work that keeps a company sharp.
Competitive salary
