About the Role

Join a small, product-focused team at a bootstrapped AI platform and consulting studio based in Munich, Germany. You'll be a core contributor to the platform that enables thousands of users to interact with AI every day — building high-quality full-stack features and the scalable backend systems that power them. From synchronizing large client datasets and running massive LLM workloads to architecting secure sandboxed environments, you'll own meaningful, high-impact work end to end. This is a hybrid role based in Munich.

What You'll Do

Build and ship high-quality full-stack features using TypeScript and React, focused on a seamless user experience.
Design and implement robust backend systems capable of handling massive data scale and millions of API requests.
Take full ownership of features from concept and deployment through to production operation, ensuring reliability and security.
Debug production incidents, identify root causes, and implement lasting solutions.
Mentor junior engineers and elevate the codebase through thorough, constructive code reviews.
Synchronize and index terabytes of client data while managing fine-grained permissions.
Operate and optimize systems that process millions of LLM calls per month with high reliability.
Architect and scale environments that spawn thousands of secure code sandboxes per day.
Build foundational infrastructure that enables rapid onboarding of custom integrations.
Shape how users interact with the platform by working across the core stack and AI integrations.

What We're Looking For

Must-haves:

3+ years of professional software engineering experience delivering full-stack features with React, TypeScript, and PostgreSQL.
Proven experience with Kubernetes-based deployment and container orchestration.
Hands-on experience building and running production-grade backend services at scale — high data volumes, millions of API requests, with a focus on reliability and security.
Comfortable working in Dockerized environments with robust CI/CD pipelines.
End-to-end product ownership mindset: from concept through deployment to live operation.
Strong debugging skills and experience resolving production incidents.

Nice-to-haves:

Experience with backend technologies such as Python or tRPC.
Experience working with GenAI platforms or LLM integrations.
Track record of mentoring junior engineers and leading code reviews.
Familiarity with high-throughput distributed services.

You'll thrive here if you:

Care deeply about user experience and long-term product quality.
Learn quickly and enjoy operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
Take pride in production ownership and have a strong instinct for reliability and security.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary: €60,000 – €80,000 per year, depending on experience.
Agile, collaborative team culture with a strong emphasis on engineering quality.
Direct impact on a platform used by thousands of users daily.
Work at the intersection of AI and enterprise software in a growing market.
