On ‘Vibecoding’ 

Random Studio is always interested in new ways of working and understands the value the use of AI can have for rapid prototyping of new ideas and problem solving. However, vibe coding alone cannot tackle many of the software challenges we take on, especially those that are expected to be production ready.

This role involves combining both software engineering and hardware work to produce innovative new concepts. Independent creative thinking and problem solving are essential skills. As such, we are looking for people who do not solely rely on AI in their work. A portfolio that showcases examples of non-’vibecoded’ work is essential.
