Your Role In this position, you will lead two teams that form the core of our product: Machine Learning / Data Science: Focus on pricing & forecasting. Agentic Application (Greenfield): You will build this team from scratch to develop a completely new, AI-driven product. You are responsible for people management (disciplinary) for both teams. Your task is to bridge complex ML models and a scalable product. You will work closely with our staff engineers (full stack & ML), who set the technical guidelines and architecture. Your Responsibilities Team Building & Scaling You will build the new "Agentic Application" unit. In the first phase, you will manage development with external partners and freelancers, while simultaneously recruiting the internal team. You are responsible for the entire hiring process (interview loops, case design, final decisions). People Leadership You act as coach and mentor for your teams. You take care of feedback, individual development paths, and a healthy team dynamic. You create structures where engineering quality and reliable delivery go hand in hand. Execution & Processes You establish a system for planning and release cycles that suits a startup. You ensure that ML experiments and frontend features integrate logically, and that we learn quickly through measurability (e.g., A/B tests). Product Focus You work closely with the product team on the roadmap and make pragmatic decisions when weighing trade-offs between UX, technical risk, and speed. Your Profile Background: You have experience as an engineering manager or as a tech lead with a clear focus on people & processes. Builder Mentality: You are eager to build a team from 0 to 1 and establish processes where they do not yet exist. Communication: You can facilitate communication between ML experts, app developers, and product managers—clearly and solution-oriented, with no empty buzzwords. Stakeholder Management: You have experience not only "managing" external service providers, but also leading them operationally to prevent technical chaos. You know how to combine external speed with internal quality standards. Languages: Fluent German and English. Tech Stack You should feel comfortable in our environment: Python (ML), TypeScript, Angular, AWS, and MongoDB.
