  • About the Role

    Join a small, fast-moving engineering team at a Y Combinator-backed conversational AI voice startup building the infrastructure that powers thousands of AI-driven phone calls every day. This is a high-impact, full-stack engineering role where you'll own projects end-to-end, influence core architecture decisions, and work directly alongside customers to ship meaningful product experiences in an AI-first, communications-enabled platform.

    The company is on-site in Berlin, Germany — visa sponsorship is available for the right candidate.

    What You'll Do

    • Work closely with customers to deeply understand their problems and design product experiences that solve real challenges.

    • Build and scale backend infrastructure capable of handling thousands of concurrent AI phone calls per day.

    • Craft intuitive front-end user experiences tailored to an AI-first product paradigm.

    • Own high-stakes projects from initial concept through production launch and post-release support.

    • Contribute to core architectural decisions alongside a senior, driven engineering team.

    What We're Looking For

    Required:

    • 2+ years of professional software engineering experience.

    • Strong PostgreSQL skills — including complex queries, performance tuning, and optimization.

    • Experience designing scalable backend architectures and making core product/architectural decisions.

    • Hands-on experience with scalable async processing or real-time processing systems.

    • Experience building products for AI-first or communications-enabled platforms.

    • Proficiency with TypeScript, React, Node.js, and/or Python.

    • Demonstrated ability to take a product from 0 to 1 and own it end-to-end.

    • Strong collaboration instincts — comfortable translating customer problems into product decisions with cross-functional teams.

    • Willingness to work on-site in Berlin, Germany (this is a dealbreaker requirement).

    Nice to Have:

    • Familiarity with Temporal.io, Twilio, or Modal.

    • Prior experience at a startup or early-stage company.

    Tech Stack

    • Languages & Frameworks: TypeScript, React, TanStack, Node.js, Python

    • Database: PostgreSQL

    • Infrastructure & Tooling: Temporal.io, Twilio, Modal

    Compensation & Benefits

    • Salary: $75,000 – $160,000 USD annually (range reflects experience level)

    • Visa sponsorship available

    • Opportunity to work on a high-growth product from the ground floor with a lean, driven team

    Location

    This role is on-site in Berlin, Germany. Remote or hybrid arrangements are not available for this position. Visa sponsorship is offered to qualifying candidates.
