Build the AI that replaces search with conversation.
AskOle is building something fundamentally different from today’s ticket exchanges, online travel agencies, and search engines.
Today, users do all the work. They search, filter, compare, open dozens of tabs, read reviews, check maps, compare hotels, look for restaurants, and try to figure out the best option.
We’re eliminating that entire experience.
A fan should simply say:
“I need two tickets for Manchester United vs Arsenal on Saturday.”
AskOle responds naturally:
“I found four excellent ticket options based on value and location. Since you’re traveling from London, would you like me to recommend hotels within walking distance of Old Trafford? I also found several restaurants that match your preferences and the best pub for pre-match atmosphere. I can book everything together in one transaction.”
That conversation replaces hundreds of clicks.
We’re looking for the Principal Architect who will build the intelligence behind that experience.
What You’ll Build
You’ll architect the AI orchestration layer that powers every AskOle conversation.
This is not another chatbot.
You’ll build a conversational commerce platform capable of understanding intent, gathering information from dozens of independent systems, reasoning over the results, ranking recommendations, asking intelligent follow-up questions, and delivering answers that feel like speaking to an expert concierge.
The platform will combine live inventory from ticket providers, hotels, airlines, restaurants, transportation, hospitality providers, maps, weather, events, reviews, and future partners into a single conversational experience.
The user never searches.
The AI does.
No pathetic AI inflated resumes or using someone else's resume
OleOle is building a global football super app combining social networking, messaging, live scores, short-form video, gambling, commerce, payments, translation, and mini programs into a single ecosystem focused entirely on football.
The vision is to create the first true “WeChat for football” — a platform where fans, clubs, brands, leagues, sportsbooks, creators, and merchants can communicate, transact, and engage directly inside one global environment.
Unlike traditional social media platforms, OleOle is built specifically for sports fans and designed around communication, real-time engagement, commerce, and community.
The platform combines elements of:
Twitter/X style social conversation

mini program ecosystems similar to WeChat
All integrated into a single football-first platform.

OleOle is designed around several key ideas:
Communication First
Fans can communicate directly with:
clubs
brands
sportsbooks
creators
media companies
other fans
through follows, messaging, sharing, comments, and real-time translated conversations.
Mini Program Ecosystem
OleOle is building a mini program platform that allows brands and partners to launch experiences directly inside the platform without requiring fans to download separate applications.
Initial mini program categories include:
Games
News
Merchandise
Ticket Sales

Fans can:
follow or unfollow mini programs
communicate directly with brands
share mini programs with friends
receive translated content automatically
Brands can communicate directly with followers within platform communication limits designed to prevent spam and preserve user experience.
Real-Time Translation
A core component of the platform is AI-driven real-time translation across conversations, content, video, messaging, and mini programs.
The goal is to remove language barriers between global football fans and allow mini programs to operate across dozens of languages automatically.
This creates a global communication layer connecting fans, clubs, brands, and creators worldwide.

OleOle includes an integrated Wallet ID and payment infrastructure powering:
commerce

OleOle – Where Fans Kick Off
The Principal AI Search & Conversation Architect will be responsible for designing and leading the architecture of a next-generation conversational AI platform that replaces traditional search with intelligent dialogue. This role owns the systems that understand user intent, determine what information is needed to satisfy a request, retrieve data from multiple real-time providers, reason across competing options, and generate conversational responses that lead users from discovery to transaction.
The successful candidate will architect the AI orchestration layer that coordinates multiple large language models, specialized agents, retrieval systems, recommendation engines, and external APIs into a single seamless conversational experience. Rather than returning lists of search results, the platform will assemble and rank information from ticketing providers, hotels, airlines, restaurants, transportation services, mapping platforms, weather services, and other third-party data sources, presenting recommendations
