AI Engineer

Turn frontier models into products that ship.

Full-time Munich / Remote Competitive

The Role.

You bridge the gap between cutting-edge models and real products. You design and build AI-powered features — agents, RAG systems, evaluation pipelines — and make them reliable, fast, and genuinely useful. You care about what works in production, not just on a benchmark.

Your Stack.

What You'll Do.

01

Design and build AI-powered features: agents, RAG pipelines, and structured-output systems.

02

Integrate LLMs into production applications with proper guardrails and observability.

03

Build evaluation and testing harnesses to keep AI behaviour reliable as it scales.

04

Work with full-stack engineers to ship AI features inside real products.

05

Stay close to the frontier — evaluate new models and tools and bring the best into our stack.

06

Optimise for latency, cost, and quality across the whole inference path.

What We're Looking For.

  • 3+ years of software engineering experience, with hands-on LLM/AI work.
  • Strong in TypeScript and/or Python.
  • Practical experience with LLM APIs, prompting, tool-calling, and agent patterns.
  • Understanding of embeddings, vector search, and retrieval-augmented generation.
  • Comfortable reasoning about evaluation, reliability, and cost/quality trade-offs.
  • Fluent in English; German is a plus.

Nice to Have.

  • Experience with the Vercel AI SDK or similar agent frameworks.
  • Fine-tuning, model hosting, or inference-optimisation experience.
  • Open source contributions in the AI/ML space.
  • Background in fast-moving startups or research.

What You Get.

Top Equipment

MacBook Pro, 4K display, and the model budget to actually experiment.

Build with the latest models on real products — not throwaway demos.

Flexibility

Flexible hours and hybrid work between our Munich office and remote.
