Description
The Role
You’ll own the whole lifecycle, analyze → design → implement → release → operate, applying systems thinking to model dependencies and identify leverage points in the system, making clear engineering decisions to turn ambiguity into shippable software.
You’ll collaborate directly with customers, clients, and teammates to clarify problems, present designs and trade-offs in writing and demos, and communicate crisply throughout execution.
What You’ll Do
Build with AI: use generative tools, evals, and our components; contribute new patterns back into our blueprint.
Engineer solutions and make decisions: evaluate trade-offs, pick patterns, make the architecture designs, develop and commit.
Pair daily with product and design; turn ambiguous problems into shippable increments.
Build scalable services, APIs, data pipelines, and frontends; instrument, observe, and optimize them in prod.
Own the solution. Reliability, scalability, performance, availability.
Work directly with the clients: clarify requirements, validate solutions, and close the loop. Fast.
Document clearly and present effectively to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Required Skills
Senior-level expertise in designing, engineering, and implementing large-scale solutions. Node.js + TypeScript, React/Next.js, PostgreSQL; Python; Rust or anything else of your taste
Data and systems fundamentals: schema design, pragmatic caching, event-driven architectures (Kafka/Redis)
Cloud and edge: AWS or Azure; Cloudflare (Workers/Durable Objects/KV) experience is excellent
Systems thinking mindset; comfortable writing specs, design docs, ADRs, etc.
Excellent written and verbal communication; ability to analyze, design, solution, and present
Experience building internal platforms or templates that speed up other engineers
Typical Stack
Languages / Frameworks: Node.js, TypeScript, Python, Rust or Ruby
Data: PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Redis, Airflow
Messaging/Streaming/Workflows: Kafka, Temporal
Cloud / Edge: GCP, Azure or AWS is OK but our love goes to Cloudflare (Workers, Durable Objects, KV, R2, etc.)
Infra/Tooling: Docker, GitHub Actions, IaC (Terraform)
Perks and Benefits
Competitive salary + bonus; equity where applicable.
Up to 30 days PTO; public holidays (location-based); high-end laptop + tools; learning budget; extensive AI tooling.
Fully remote from the EU, the UK or the US, with occasional travel.
FAQ
Remote?
Yes, fully remote from anywhere in Germany after a successfull onboarding.
Visa?
Case by case.
