Our bar is high, and this is the best place for ambitious builders.
Bootstrapped and profitable from day one, Almedia is Germany’s fastest-growing company (FT1000). Join us as we build the global leader in rewards, at a $1bn+ revenue run rate and climbing fast.
We’re looking for a Founding Engineer to work directly with leadership on high-impact, zero-to-one projects. If you love taking full ownership, moving fast, and building real products end-to-end, we want to hear from you.
Founding Engineer
€90K – €150K
What You’ll Do:
Build core product features end-to-end (backend and/or mobile/web), from idea to production.
Take full ownership of projects: scope, architecture, implementation, and rollout.
Jump onto critical initiatives (SDK, network, new product bets) and unblock them fast.
Ship high-quality, testable code at high speed.
Work closely with whoever is needed to shape what we build next.
Using AI tools (Claude, Cursor, Copilot, etc.) as part of your everyday toolkit — we actively encourage AI-assisted development.
What You Need:
Strong experience as a senior-level engineer in product teams.
Deep hands-on skills in backend (e.g. TypeScript/Node).
Proven zero-to-one experience (early-stage startup, founding engineer, or similar).
Track record of owning complex projects and delivering them to production.
You Are:
A builder with a strong ownership mindset and high output.
Comfortable with ambiguity, fast decisions, and a high bar for quality.
Product-minded: you care about impact, not just code.
A clear communicator in English, both written and spoken.
Why Almedia?
High Impact: Work on company-defining projects, not tickets in a queue.
Scale With Almedia: Join a profitable, high-growth startup early.
Great Environment: Central Berlin office, transport subsidy, breakfasts and lunches, language learning, Urban Sports Club, and more.
We believe in fostering talent, evaluating all skill levels during the hiring process, and providing a clear path for growth. Almedia is an equal opportunity employer. We embrace and celebrate diversity, and encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply.
