Job description

Social network you want to login/join with:

Hi everyone! ? I’m currently hiring for a Staff Engineer to join a global tech company that’s shaping the future of online safety and digital experiences.

This role is ideal for someone who lives at the intersection of machine learning and strong software engineering, and wants to build real-world systems that make a difference.

? What You'll Be Doing:

• Designing & building scalable systems—from ML pipelines to microservices and APIs
• Owning full lifecycle delivery: from research notebooks or rough concepts to clean, robust, and reliable production code
• Collaborating across teams—engineering, product, data, and more
• Leading by example as a senior individual contributor, mentoring others and setting technical direction
• Working with cloud infrastructure (GCP preferred), security-first architecture, and modern dev practices

? What They’re Looking For:

• A builder’s mindset: you thrive on solving problems end-to-end, not just prototyping
• ML-native thinking: you're excited by ML, know when (and when not) to apply it, and can scale it pragmatically
• Strong systems design, architecture, and a clear, pragmatic communication style
• Experience leading complex technical projects or products, either in a company, startup, or open-source community

Bonus points if you’ve worked on privacy tech, GraphQL, OAuth, embedded systems, or large-scale data pipelines.

? Why You Might Love It:

A bold mission with global impact

Remote-first setup (EST to CET) + offices in Berlin & multiple other locations

Smart, passionate teammates and huge autonomy

Competitive salary, benefits, and strong support for professional growth

The chance to “re-found” a company at a pivotal moment in its evolution

If this sounds like something you'd thrive in—or even if you're just curious—I'd love to chat and tell you more.

Feel free to apply here or drop me a message directly.
