My client is one of Berlin’s most forward-thinking AI startups — applying cutting-edge machine intelligence to solve complex, real-world problems. Backed by top investors and led by proven founders, they’re scaling fast and hiring a Staff Engineer to join their growing team of exceptional technologists.
This isn’t a maintenance role — it’s a rare opportunity to help architect and build next-generation systems from the ground up. As a Staff Engineer, you’ll be a technical leader and hands-on contributor, working at the intersection of advanced front-end development and AI integration.
What you’ll be working with:
* A modern front-end stack: TypeScript, React, and a clean, modular architecture
* A product that leverages AI in genuinely useful, novel ways
* A collaborative environment where engineers partner closely with research, design, and product
* Technical challenges at scale — from performance to developer experience to system design
What they’re looking for:
* Deep expertise in TypeScript and React, with a strong grasp of architecture and design patterns
* Experience scaling modern web applications, ideally in high-growth or startup environments
* A strong technical voice — you know how to influence decisions, mentor others, and guide direction
* Comfort working autonomously and taking ownership of entire technical areas
* Interest or background in AI/ML-driven products is a major plus
Why this role?
* Influence without management: Help set direction, guide architecture, and shape engineering culture
* Innovation at pace: Move fast, ship meaningfully, and avoid bureaucratic drag
* Real product impact: Work on tech that customers actually use — with AI at its core
* Growth & recognition: Join early and help define the engineering org as it scales
