About the Role

This is a full-stack engineering role sitting across the product and AI teams at a seed-stage B2B AI customer support startup. You will own end-to-end features, shape AI-powered capabilities, and help scale the agentic architectures that drive automated ticket resolution for technical B2B teams. The role offers real ownership and impact at an early-stage company pushing the boundaries of current-generation AI systems.

What You'll Do

  • Design and implement full-stack product features from concept through production.

  • Build and enhance AI features, including autonomous agent workflows and data or model pipelines.

  • Collaborate closely with the team to plan, design, and launch new capabilities.

  • Help make internal work processes AI-native by integrating AI coding agents and related tooling into day-to-day engineering.

What We're Looking For

  • 1 to 4 years of backend or AI engineering experience; strong new-grad candidates are welcome.

  • Demonstrated success shipping backend systems or AI features to production.

  • Hands-on experience building agentic AI systems, with solid intuition for autonomous-agent frameworks and system design.

  • Experience integrating OpenAI models and applying prompt engineering techniques.

  • Familiarity with relational databases such as PostgreSQL and/or Firestore on GCP.

  • Experience designing end-to-end architectures and building AI-powered data or model pipelines.

  • Heavy user of AI coding agents (such as Codex, Claude Code, or Cursor), with concrete learnings or ideas for improving AI coding agent setups.

  • Hobby projects involving LLMs or related AI topics, showing genuine curiosity beyond the day job.

  • Startup drive and comfort operating in a hands-on, fast-moving environment.

  • Already authorised to work in Germany; visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
