Jobbeschreibung

About Dataleap

We raised $3M from YC and angels like Aravind (CEO Perplexity) and Rahul Vohra (Superhuman) to build the agentic operating system for the enterprise. Thousands of agents deployed, doubling revenue every month. Far more enterprise inbound than we can handle.

About the role

You are the engineer on the ground at our biggest DACH customers, based in Munich, working hand in hand with our Deployment Strategist.

When a multibillion-dollar company decides to go AI-native with Dataleap, you show up at their office, sit with their teams, find the workflows that matter, and ship agents that run in production. You scope, build, integrate, debug, and teach. You leave behind systems the customer can own. Then you do it again at the next account.

Part forward-deployed engineer, part founding engineer, part technical sparring partner for the customer's CTO. End-to-end. No PM. No spec. You walk into ambiguity and ship.

You also build on our core product. When you hit a platform limitation at a customer, you don't file a ticket, you work directly with engineering to close the gap, most often by writing the fix yourself.

What you'll do

• Embed with our largest DACH customers. Run workshops, hackathons, and implementation sprints on site.
• Ship the highest-leverage use cases end to end: complex agents, custom integrations, MCP servers, multi-step workflows wired into the systems they already run on (SAP, internal APIs, legacy tooling).
• Sit with customer CTOs and platform teams as a technical peer.
• Push our own product forward. Identify what's blocking customer value and work with engineering to fix it.
• Build agents to automate your own work. Eliminate manual work from your role.

You're a fit if

• You're a strong full-stack engineer who can also go deep. Bonus if you know Go.
• You're an AI engineer in practice. You've shipped agentic systems, tool-use loops, and LLM features that work under load.
• You live in Claude Code, Cursor, and coding agents. You've already scaled yourself in ways most engineers haven't.
• You can scope a complex use case in a customer meeting at 11am and have it working by EOD.
• You've shipped something from scratch. Founder or early-employee experience is a strong plus.
• You communicate sharply with technical and non-technical stakeholders alike.
• You're high agency, high clock speed, low ego, high ownership — and you want to work very hard and be deeply obsessed.
• You speak German at a native level and are based in Munich or ready to move.

We index on energy, values, and slope — not years of experience.

What you get

• Direct exposure to my network at YC, Founders Inc, and CDTM.
• The fastest growth opportunity of your career. I'll make sure of it personally.
• Unlimited AI budget. We practice what we preach.
• Top-of-market equity for a founding hire — see the range above.
• A seat at the table as we build out the European org from Munich.
• If you ever want to start your own company, I'll back you.
