I let Lunaris hunt for AI jobs

I let Lunaris hunt for AI jobs

I have this habit of testing Lunaris on real tasks. Not toy problems. Actual things I might do myself.

Today I was curious about AI-related job openings in South Africa, so I pointed it at sboj.dev and asked it to find every AI role on the landing page.

The setup

Lunaris actually has a built-in browser that runs in its own sandbox. It can navigate, scroll, read content, and interact with pages right out of the box. No extra permissions needed for basic browsing.

I had full desktop control enabled, but that's overkill for this task. Desktop control is really for when you want Lunaris to use your daily browser — the one with all your logged-in accounts, cookies, and sessions. If I had asked it to check my LinkedIn messages or scan a job board behind a login wall, then desktop control would matter.

For a public site like sboj.dev, the sandboxed browser handles it just fine.

The task

The prompt was simple:

go to https://sboj.dev/ and give me a summary of all AI related roles

Lunaris opened a browser, navigated to the site, read through the listings, identified the AI-related ones, and came back with this:

What it found

Two roles stood out:

AI Engineering Writer at Ritza

R 30,000 – R 50,000 per month | 1+ years | Hybrid (Cape Town)

This one's interesting. It's not a pure engineering role and it's not pure writing. You're building software with AI tools, creating proof-of-concepts and demos, then documenting the whole process for other engineers. The stack includes CSS, Linux, Node.js, Python, and AI Agents.

I like this because it's honest about what most "AI engineering" actually looks like right now. You're not training models from scratch. You're using existing tools, figuring out what works, and helping others do the same.

Platform Engineer at The Awareness Company

R 65,000 – R 95,000 per month | 7+ years | Hybrid

This is a senior .NET/Azure/DevOps role with a twist. They specifically want someone who already uses AI coding tools like Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or Aider in production work. Not someone who's "interested in AI." Someone who already leverages it day-to-day.

That framing caught my attention. We're starting to see job postings that treat AI tool fluency as a core skill, not a bonus. That's a real shift.

The full summary

Lunaris formatted everything nicely. Company details, salary ranges, experience requirements, key skills, application links. It even built an overview table comparing both roles side by side.

Role Company Salary Experience Type
AI Engineering Writer Ritza SA PTY LTD R 30k – R 50k 1+ years Hybrid (Cape Town)
Platform Engineer (AI-Leveraged) The Awareness Company R 65k – R 95k 7+ years Hybrid

The whole thing took maybe a minute. I didn't have to open a browser, scan listings, or copy-paste details into a document. I just asked, and it did the busywork.

Thoughts

There's something satisfying about using an AI agent to find AI jobs. It's meta, but it's also practical.

What struck me most was how the second role explicitly asks for production experience with AI coding assistants. That's the world we're in now. These tools aren't coming. They're here, and some employers are already filtering for people who use them well.

If you're in South Africa and looking for AI-related work, sboj.dev has a couple of solid options right now. And if you have a local agent like Lunaris, finding them is as simple as asking.

Taking it further

This was a one-off query, but it doesn't have to be. You could schedule it to run automatically.

/schedule "go to https://sboj.dev/ and give me a summary of all AI related roles and append to summary.md"

Set it to run every morning, and Lunaris will browse the site, find any new AI-related listings, and append them to a running summary file while you get on with your day. It's a small automation that keeps you ahead of the market without any extra effort.
