Your mission

You’ll work on the core of Daidalo: the technology that structures, enriches and makes recruitment data reliable at scale. You build new features, improve existing systems and fix the bottlenecks that slow things down. You help push our backend, data and AI infrastructure forward.

What you’ll do

Backend & feature development

• Build and extend scalable backend services in Python.
• Take features from concept to production.

• Work with REST/GraphQL APIs. Integrating, maintaining, improving.

Data & AI engineering

• Build and optimise data pipelines for processing and enriching large datasets.
• Keep improving enrichment quality, speed and reliability.
• Contribute to our AI-driven services (ML/LLM integrations), think semantic matching and auto-parsing.
• Experiment with new AI techniques and turn them into real product improvements.

Solution engineering & client impact

• Support client integrations and help build proof‑of‑concepts.
• Work with sales to turn technical questions into workable solutions.

This is you

• 2–5 years in software development.
• You know your way around backend development in Python.
• You’re interested in data engineering and AI integrations.
• Hands‑on, analytical, and comfortable taking ownership.
• You work in a structured way and always look for ways to make things better.

Our offer

• An engineering role where what you build actually matters. Direct impact on product, architecture and clients.
• You’ll work side by side with the founders.
• Real autonomy over the features you build and the technical decisions you make.
• A small, ambitious team that ships fast and cares about quality.
• Flexible working and room to grow fast in responsibility.
• Competitive pay with real growth potential.

About daidalo

• Recruitment agencies are sitting on a goldmine of data in their ATS. But in practice? That data is messy, outdated and unreliable. It costs them placements, revenue and real opportunities, month after month.
• We fix that. Daidalo automatically cleans, completes and keeps ATS data up to date, so agencies can actually work from their own database again. No more searching, checking and repairing the same records over and over. We’re bootstrapped, growing fast, with 20+ recruitment agencies as clients and clear international ambitions.
