Job description

Описание:

We are looking for you to complement our team of round pegs in square holes! AI is transforming everything, and we are not here to watch from the sidelines. We are already Germany's leading AI powerhouse and play it boldly. With a team of 50 friendly nerds, we deliver what Accenture, BCG, and Capgemini merely talk about: genuine AI breakthroughs for DAX-listed companies, hidden champions, international NGOs and even the government. That's why we have just secured the first place in the Data & AI category of WirtschaftsWoche's Best of Consulting ranking.

Задачи:

You orchestrate agents to build what teams used to build by hand: faster, sharper, at a scale that wasn't possible before You shape fast-paced AI breakthrough projects from PoC to production-ready MVP, ensuring they generate real business value You build data pipelines, run ML workflows, develop and deploy web services on cloud environments (preferably Azure) You support integration with client systems and make sure what we ship actually holds up in the real world You work embedded in one of our squads: close to the action, with short decision paths and real ownership You bring AI to organizations that need it most: corporates, Mittelstand, scale-ups, NGOs, and the public sector You help shape who we are – internally and externally – as a key contributor in a fast-growing company

Требования:

3+ years of professional experience building scalable, production-grade software Hands-on ML in production: model training, deployment, monitoring; proficient with TensorFlow, PyTorch, or scikit-learn Strong Python and SQL: solid foundations, clean code, good engineering instincts Cloud and web experience: at least one cloud platform (preferably Azure), secure web app setup, PostgreSQL You run multiple Claude Code instances in parallel and feel frustrated when you can't You've created proper evals and let AI agents cook for 30+ minutes You're comfortable in a boardroom and a terminal on the same day and you switch between the two without losing a beat You build trust fast: with clients, with your squad, with stakeholders who are skeptical of AI You translate between business and technology fluently – in both directions Comfort with ambiguity: vague requirements are your starting point, not a blocker German from C1 for confident client communication This role requires being on-site with clients around 50% of the time. You're comfortable with that – and ideally, you see it as a feature, not a bug.

Условия:

The resources, trust, and stage to do the best work of your life. No micro-management, no slow approvals. You get autonomy and accountability in one package. We've been on the journey to 1000 AI breakthroughs since long before the recent hype. What you learn here, about cutting-edge AI, enterprise transformation, and building at speed, isn't available anywhere else.

Base, Bonus, vESOPs. We pay for excellence, not tenure. Flexible hours, remote work possibilities and a family-friendly environment. "No Rules Rules" is how we actually operate. Equal opportunities, active mentorship, and leadership support for women because building the future of AI in Europe means building it with the right people, full stop. A team of warm outliers who believe the best way to predict the future is to build it 1000 times over. Plus: free drinks, snacks, game nights and people who actually have your back.
