About the Role

Join an early-stage AI and logistics technology team as a Founding Engineer. You will combine customer discovery with hands-on full-stack engineering to turn AI agent demos into reliable, production-ready tools for freight operations, while helping shape product and technical direction.

What You'll Do

Lead customer conversations and translate operational insights into product features and technical strategy.

Design and build full-stack applications and advance the product's AI capabilities.

Move prototypes and demos toward scalable, high-quality production systems.

Make pragmatic architecture decisions and help shape the product and engineering direction.

What We're Looking For

At least 2 years of professional software engineering experience building and shipping production applications.

Broad product-engineering experience across backend systems and user-facing applications, rather than a focus limited to one discipline.

Hands-on experience with Node.js, TypeScript, and React, as well as Python backend development.

Experience shipping customer-facing LLM features or agents in production, including LLM design patterns, vector stores, and model fine-tuning.

Experience building and deploying scalable products from MVP to production, including moving beyond prototype or demo stages.

Ability to lead customer conversations, turn feedback into product requirements, and make sensible early-stage architecture trade-offs.

Experience in a startup or other early-stage environment; freight or logistics technology experience is relevant.

Compensation & Benefits

Visa sponsorship is available.

Location

Hybrid in Berlin, Germany. Candidates should be willing to work from Berlin or relocate there.
