Senior Fullstack Engineer (Core)

Company

Founded in Berlin, autarc is a ~40 person start‑up who were part of Y Combinator’s S24 batch in San Francisco. Our team consists of people in Sales, Tech and Operations, with the Engineering & Product department currently ~20 people, as we continue to grow throughout the year.

Role description

This role is to join our Core Engineering team, who are focused on improving both developer and user experience. This includes optimising database performance, working on the scalability of our app, honing in on quality assurance and working on integrating 3rd party SaaS.

You will be exposed to working on something 1‑10, as an early member in our journey. You’ll be continuously involved in decision‑making, as opposed to having narrow and machine‑like tasks in a larger organisation where you will need to contribute towards defining roadmaps and mentoring other members of squad.

Day‑to‑day work will consist of designing architecture and ensuring that as our customer base grows, the quality in the technology that we offer is not affected. You will be working with PDF rendering and on the integrations of third‑party APIs, with the expectation that you are someone capable of rapid prototyping.

This team is central to everything at autarc and influences wider Product squads.

Other responsibilities will include:

• Setting up servers
• Building a sync engine for offline use
• Focusing on flawless Frontend designs and UI
• Interacting with the Design team to improve UX
• Be hands‑on in designing, coding and testing cycles for both existing and new features
• Develop B2B SaaS applications
• Have a high level of responsibility to turn ideas into performant and reliable code

This role is Fullstack but Backend heavy, with the split being approximately 80/20.

Requirements

• 5+ years of working experience
• Experience with compiled languages such as Go, Rust, Swift or C/C++
• Database, Backend and Cloud experience
• Experience working with Frontend technologies such as React
• Experience building B2B SaaS products
• Based in Berlin with a willingness to work hybrid (3 days in the office)

What we offer

• Freedom to choose your own equipment (within a budget)
• 26 paid vacation days
• An annual team retreat
• The choice between Dance or JobRad for mobility
• The choice between Classpass or Urban Sports Club for fitness
• Regular team events, lunches and activities

Next steps

If your application is successful, you will participate in the following:

• Screening call with Louis (Recruiter)
• Culture fit call with a Senior Engineer
• Pair programming/live coding exercise
• Final on‑site interview with Marius (CTO) and the team
