• Hands-on experience with API integrations (REST, GraphQL, Webhooks) and data transformation.
• Familiarity with LLM APIs and prompt engineering.
• Comfortable with JavaScript/TypeScript or Python for custom nodes, scripts, and extensions.
• Understanding of process mapping, orchestration, and optimization principles.

Work Environment & Culture

Important Note on "Hybrid" Work: While we describe this as a hybrid position, as a young, fast-growing company, we prioritize in-person collaboration and team building. Our CTO is based in our Berlin office, and having our technical team physically present is essential for knowledge sharing, mentorship, and maintaining our innovative culture. We expect team members to be in the office most days of the week, with occasional flexibility for remote work. We organize frequent team activities, collaborative sessions, and learning opportunities that require physical presence. This is fundamentally an office-based role with some remote flexibility, not a primarily remote position.

Why Join Us?

• Work on cutting-edge AI and automation projects.
• Shape solutions for top-tier global brands and ambitious scale-ups.
• Full ownership from idea to delivery, see your work go live fast.
• Collaborate directly with our CTO and technical leadership team in our Berlin office.
• Be part of building our company culture and technical expertise through in-person collaboration.
• A chance to grow with a fast-moving, founder-led company at the forefront of enterprise AI orchestration.
