What you'll do

• Own architectural decisions for your domain and drive long-term technical vision.
• Lead a team of engineers: hire, develop, and retain talent through coaching, code reviews, and continuous feedback.
• Stay hands-on: contribute directly to the codebase alongside architectural and leadership responsibilities.
• Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and Operations to align technical decisions with business goals.
• Balance innovation with pragmatism – make smart build-vs-buy decisions at system level.
• Integrate LLMs and AI agents into product workflows where they create real value.
• Drive operational excellence: observability, reliability, and incident response.

• 6+ years of software engineering experience, including 2+ years of technical leadership in high-performance environments.
• Proven end-to-end responsibility in software engineering and technical leadership. From ideation to release.
• Strong background in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or similar.
• Strong system design and coding skills with proficiency in Go, or similar. Experience with event-driven architectures and distributed systems.
• Fluent in spec-driven, AI-assisted development (e.g. Claude Code).

• Fluent in English (C1); German (B2).

Nice to have

What they offer

• Competitive salary and flexible perks (sports, mobility, learning) tailored to your needs.
• Prime location in Berlin Charlottenburg with partial remote work as an option.
• Measurable impact on decarbonization – CO₂ savings, energy efficiency, and cost reductions.
• Hypergrowth phase with unique opportunity to actively contribute to company success.
• Direct access to decision-makers with minimal bureaucracy.
