Job description

Join BLP and help make the world’s business processes autonomous!

Our agentic platform helps finance and operations teams worldwide remove manual work from their core business processes, so work runs end-to-end with greater control and significant productivity gains.

Today, over 550 enterprise customers use BLP across 1,300+ deployed projects. In the processes we automate, customers achieve productivity improvements of 5 to 10 times.

To date, BLP remains majority employee-owned, with Goldman Sachs holding a minority stake as a growth investor. Our success is driven by deep expertise in technology and business processes, a superior product with strong product-market fit, reflected in an expanding customer base that includes Fortune 500 companies.

BLP is one of Switzerland's fastest-growing SaaS scale-ups; we are now entering our next phase of growth. From our headquarters on Zürich's Bahnhofstrasse, we're expanding globally, with a growing presence across Europe and North America.

Join us and help make autonomous operations the new standard.

About The Role

BLP’s AI agents are only as good as their data: they need reliable context from our customers’ ERP systems, such as SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, or Oracle, and a safe way to write their results back.

What You'll Do

• Shape the platform: work with the engineers and implementation teams who connect our customers’ ERP systems, find where that work is slow or fragile, and turn it into platform improvements.
• Build great software: design and build clean, maintainable services in Go, and raise the bar through thoughtful code reviews.
• Lead technically: drive technical decisions on key initiatives, influence the product roadmap, and support your teammates as they grow.
• Improve how we work: share what you learn openly and keep improving our processes, tools, and team practices.
• Tech stack: Go, Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub CI/CD, running on GCP.

What You Bring

• 3+ years as a software engineer, with a degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
• Experience with Go, or strong backend experience and the motivation to learn Go quickly
• Craftsmanship: a solid grasp of Clean Code and Clean Architecture
• Product thinking: you turn business problems into precise requirements, specifications, and ultimately code
• Ownership: you take responsibility for your code, the product, and the team
• Clear communication: you simplify complex systems and explain them to engineers and business stakeholders alike
• Fluent English: you work comfortably in English, in writing and in conversation

Nice to have

• Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, GCP and infrastructure as code.
• Experience with observability tooling such as OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana or Google Cloud Monitoring.
• German.

What You'll Get

• Real leverage: every improvement you make to the platform speeds up go-lives and stabilizes integrations for hundreds of enterprise customers.
• Full ownership: from internal user problem to shipped and operated code.
• A modern, varied tech stack and continuous learning as the platform scales.
• Fast-tracked growth, with promotions and a bonus scheme that includes company shares.
• Regular team events.

Practical information

• Location: Zurich office, hybrid with 3+ office days per week.
• Employment: full-time, permanent.
