Senior Full-Stack Engineer

We are an exciting early-stage AI start-up creating the future of manufacturing! We believe that blue-collar workers are an essential part of this transformation. We are dedicated to empowering these workers by assisting them in their daily tasks and unlocking the full potential of manual labor through productivity and flexibility.

We are utilizing cutting-edge technology, such as computer vision and artificial intelligence, to revolutionize manufacturing by providing workers with the tools they need to improve their productivity beyond current limitations. Our focus is initially on assembly processes, but we plan to expand to other areas, including material consignment and machine repair activities. By improving efficiency, we aim to make products more affordable and use resources more sustainably.

Our team is led by experienced entrepreneurs Max and Silviu. Max has previously founded a company in manufacturing that digitized 40 factories, and Silviu holds a PhD in computer science and is a computer vision expert. He has previously led a team that developed a robot taxi service at Volkswagen and built a startup in the security industry. Our team includes members from top-tier universities such as ETH and MIT, as well as individuals with entrepreneurial experience in the fashion industry and at leading research institutions like Fraunhofer. 

At our company, we value hard work, creativity, and a willingness to learn and grow. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome candidates of all backgrounds. Additionally, we offer a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical insurance and a learning and development budget. Furthermore, we provide flexible scheduling options and the opportunity for employees to set their own schedule to support our employee's families and personal responsibilities.

We are financially backed by Merantix, the world’s first AI Venture Studio. We are proud to be part of a team that includes some of the world’s most talented engineers, scientists, and entrepreneurs from prestigious universities such as Yale, Oxford, and Harvard. Our studio is based on the Berlin AI Campus, and we have already founded seven ventures to date, employing over 150 people between our studio and our ventures. This presents an opportunity for you to join our ecosystem and collaborate with AI and business experts from various industries, who will support you in your professional development and in balancing your personal and professional responsibilities.

Senior Full-Stack Engineer

This is a remote role, allowing you to work from anywhere within Europe while ensuring that we still don’t lose the personal touch through frequent personal encounters in Berlin. 

You will be one of the first engineers and will have the opportunity to apply artificial intelligence to the manufacturing industry. As an early engineer, you’ll be a core part of our product. You are full-stack by nature and care about products and user experience, not specific technologies. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to define and architect an entirely new platform from the bottom up.

You will not be bound by legacy technologies and slow processes. As our venture grows, you will also grow and have an opportunity to expand our engineering team and create an engineering culture. This role is for entrepreneurial-minded engineers who want to be an early part of a fast-growing startup. Our fast-growing nature also means you will receive increasingly more responsibilities. You’d be required to take the lead on the major projects and support Junior Full-Stack engineers with their developments.

Your role will include:

• Building our Web app from the ground up.
• Use your full-stack experience to design intelligent solutions that include front-end and back-end systems—and teach others to do so by example.
• Proactively collaborate closely with engineers, product designers, and product owners to drive the evolution of our technology.
• API and infrastructure development
• Maintain effective communication and collaboration with other engineering teams to manage dependencies and deliverables to ensure end-to-end integration and quality
• Ensure development of a robust, safe, secure, highly available, and highly scalable product
