Jobs in Koln, Germany

The goal is to develop open, modular AI middleware that enables SMEs to integrate various AI services in compliance with GDPR, host them locally, or orchestrate them via secure access points. This is scalable, understandable AI integration with an independent, transparent infrastructure, preserving data sovereignty and decision-making power for customers.

To jointly implement an innovative AI middleware solution that combines open-source principles, digital self-determination, and modular AI technology in a secure, scalable architecture concept, we are looking for a technical project partner (IT service provider, SME, startup) who can perform and supervise the following services.

An AI-supported business plan generator with a knowledge database that is more than just a planning tool thanks to its integration into a project management system, automatic integration into an open source ERP system, and data archiving, which enables easy migration of the ERP system and archive so that everything can be taken along.

All modules are open source, allowing for full self-hosting or cloud use. The middleware connects ERP, archive, and other modules, ensures data security, and enables flexible extensions. There is a protected area for sensitive data, and all documents can be moved between systems in a controlled manner.

• Architecture and development of modular middleware
• Integration of internal and external AI solutions
• Development of a central semantic knowledge database
• Provision of infrastructure or hosting (optional)

• Experience with middleware and API development
• Knowledge of AI integration, NLP, semantic databases
• Knowledge of containerization, DevOps, infrastructure
• Experience with open source technologies

An AI and IT security expert will develop the security concept and take on other areas. Comprehensive collaboration on the overall concept should be possible. To ensure that the Estonian start-up is not assigned a German permanent establishment due to its residence in Germany, it would be important for the IT partner to be based outside Germany.

Participation in the development of an open source-based ecosystem

I have seen how great innovative AI solutions on the market, or not even on the market yet, have quickly become obsolete. In order to quickly integrate or replace new AI agent solutions, AI middleware with a knowledge database is needed, also for future challenges such as IoT, CO₂ footprint, etc.

Based on my many years of experience as a controller, finance manager, tax expert, coach, and management consultant, I can now combine all my expertise and use AI to develop practical concepts. My degree in economics with an IT background, extensive practical experience in software implementation, and numerous assignments over the past 15 years as a management consultant for large companies solving a wide variety of problems now enable me to design solutions specifically from the user's perspective and efficiently solve complex challenges.
