About Fractional

Fractional is an applied-AI company based in Porto/Braga, Portugal, but working remotely with a few in-person workdays. We design and build AI agents and systems for Portuguese SMEs — not prototypes or dashboards, but systems that go live in production and replace real manual work: reconciling invoices, managing HR, running audits, processing credit applications. We have 20+ systems live in production with clients like Casa Financeira, Wewood, Dehouse, and Train your Dog.

We also build our own products: forhumans (an AI-native HR platform) and foraudits (an AI-native audit and compliance platform, partnered with the Instituto Português da Qualidade).

We work in small, hands-on teams that go from design to delivery, fast.

About the role

You'll join the team building and operating our engagement with Casa Financeira, a credit/real-estate client, as well as work touching financial-markets (stock exchange) data and workflows. You'll be responsible for real systems in production, not internal tools.

‍

‍

What you'll do

• Design and build full-stack features: backend services, data models, and (ideally) front-end interfaces
• Design and evolve database architecture for systems handling real financial and operational data
• Work directly with the client and the rest of the delivery team to turn business processes into working software
• Own your work end-to-end

‍

What we're looking for

• 2–3 years of professional software engineering experience
• Strong backend fundamentals, and solid understanding of database architecture and design
• Comfortable working across the stack — some front-end experience is a strong plus
• Interest or prior exposure to financial services, credit, or stock-market/trading domains is a plus
• Comfortable in a fast-moving, small-team environment with direct client exposure
