About this role

ABOUT THE ROLE This is a high-ownership engineering role at a Y Combinator–backed AI startup automating sales workflows for distributors and manufacturers. You'll be the critical bridge between the product and the customer — taking technical implementations from sales handoff all the way to live deployment, and shaping the product from the field. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own the full technical implementation of the AI platform from sales handoff through go-live.

- Configure and fine-tune AI models for customer-specific use cases, including prompt engineering and behavior adjustments. - Structure customer data and build system integrations with platforms like SAP and a variety of REST/GraphQL APIs. - Develop prototypes to demonstrate new features or solve emerging customer problems, then evolve them into scalable solutions. - Engage daily with technical users and senior business stakeholders, translating their pain points into engineering decisions.

- Act as the voice of the customer internally, surfacing product gaps and recurring patterns to the core engineering team. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - Native fluency in German — this is essential for the role. - Strong full-stack engineering skills across Python, React, TypeScript, SQL, and API development. - Hands-on experience with enterprise system integrations, including ERP systems (e.g., SAP) and REST/GraphQL APIs.

- Practical experience with LLMs, AI agents, and prompt engineering, with the ability to adapt model behavior to specific domains. - Proven ability to work with messy, real-world data and establish reliable structures quickly. - A customer-obsessed mindset — comfortable sitting at the intersection of engineering, product, and live customer environments. - High agency and ownership; you proactively identify problems and drive solutions without waiting to be directed.

- Clear, confident communication with both technical and non-technical audiences. - Comfort with ambiguity, legacy systems, and imperfect data — a scrappy, pragmatic problem-solver at heart. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS Salary range: €90,000 – €200,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available. LOCATION On-site in Munich, Germany. Candidates must be based in Munich or willing to relocate.
