Your role in the team
- You work directly within the software team and take on the role of our "AI Scout" and developer.
- Building & Coding: You develop backend services (APIs) that connect our applications with AI models. In doing so, you use Python (for the AI part) and are proficient with the most common libraries (FastAPI, pydantic, SQLAlchemy, etc.).
- On-Premise AI Lab: You assist us in operating our own open-source AI system. You experiment with frameworks such as Ollama or vLLM, benchmark models, and explore how to maximize performance from our hardware.
- Cloud: You have a basic understanding of how Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud work and can connect APIs, e.g., from Azure Foundry.
- Tech Scouting: There are new AI tools every week. You evaluate new "AI features" from software providers: Are they useful or just hype? Your assessment matters.
Our expectations of you
Education
- Background: You have completed a relevant degree or are currently finishing your Master's and/or are a Software Developer. You may have AI projects with code that you can showcase (GitHub, private projects).
Qualifications
- AI Native: You understand how LLMs "work". Terms like Context Window, Embeddings, RAG, or Prompt Engineering are second nature to you.
- Tinkerer mentality: You are not afraid of the command line, Docker containers, or Linux. If something isn't working, you dig through the documentation until it works.
- Communication: You are open and enjoy explaining to others what you have built. Additionally, you can transmit technical enthusiasm to others.
Experience
- We are looking for problem-solving mindset and programming skills, not 10 years of experience in a technology that has only existed for 3 years.
- Coding Skills: You write Python Data/AI scripts and services and have experience with common SDKs.

- In addition to a performance-based gross salary of at least EUR 46,944.38 per year on a full-time basis, we offer numerous benefits:
- 37.5-hour week (full-time basis)
