Build the Backbone of AI That Matters
Your Mission
We’re not just another company piping our data into someone else’s black box. We build our own AI stack — scalable, secure, and 100% under our control. If you're tired of patching together pipelines that nobody understands or maintaining legacy ETL monsters, keep reading.
As our Data Engineer – AI, you'll own the architecture and operations of our AI applications — from raw data to production-grade services. You’ll work side by side with Data Scientists to make models actually usable, and you’ll drive the technical backbone of products that run at scale.
1. Real engineering: You’re not just gluing APIs — you’re building systems
2. Visible impact: Your work powers live services — used, tested, and appreciated
3. Tech-first environment: We're AI-focused by design, not by buzzword
4. Shape the future: You’re part of the journey, not just maintaining what’s already there
What You’ll Do
5. Design, build & run: Architect scalable data backends to power our AI-driven products
6. Bridge the gap: Work closely with Data Scientists to turn prototypes into production
7. Automate & optimize: Ensure stability and performance of our AI APIs — and make testing a non-event
8. Explore the new: Evaluate bleeding-edge tech in storage, compute, and orchestration — if it's open source and promising, you'll touch it
Your Toolbelt
9. Deep knowledge of software engineering, including testing and design patterns
10. Experience with data pipelines, storage, and processing techniques
11. A get-code-into-prod mentality — you care about robustness and performance
12. You thrive in agile, cross-functional teams where people ship fast and learn faster
Your Tools
13. Python – For building clean, scalable data pipelines and backend services.
14. SQL – You write efficient queries and know your way around complex joins and large datasets.
15. Git – Version control is second nature. You know how to branch, commit, and collaborate cleanly.
Bonus Skills (nice to have): Apache Hadoop, Spark / Docker, Kubernetes / Grafana, Prometheus, Graylog / Jenkins / Java, Scala / Shell scripting
Our Tech Stack
We build with the tools we love (and we love good tools): TypeScript,, React, Python, SQL, Scala, Java, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, GCP, C++, GitHub, and the occasional caffeine-fueled whiteboard sketch. And we’re not afraid to throw something out if there’s a better way. Check out our open source stuff:
What’s in Your Loot Box
16. Top-tier hardware (Mac/Linux/whatever you need)
17. Paid access to Coursera, Udacity, conferences, hackathons & coaching
18. "Smart Fridays" – our 4-day workweek to protect your flow
19. Flexible hours & remote work – we trust you to do your thing
20. JobRad + Urban Sports Club deals + free RTL+ subscription
21. Deutschlandticket subsidy, awesome team events, and more
