Associate Founding Engineer

### About the Role We're an early-stage, Munich-based startup building an AI-powered digital assistant for B2B sales teams. Our product automates the administrative burden of sales work — from meeting preparation and real-time note-taking (without audio recording, fully GDPR-compliant) to CRM updates and follow-up management — so sales professionals can focus on what they do best: selling. Our engineering team is small and moving fast. We're building a true multi-platform product: a **React Web App**, an **Electron Desktop Client**, a **Swift Mobile App**, and two backend services. As an **Associate Founding Engineer (Full-Stack)**, you'll work side-by-side with founding engineers from the very beginning — learning deeply, contributing meaningfully, and growing quickly as you take on increasing responsibility. **Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.** ### What You'll Do * Learn from and support founding engineers on real, high-impact product work. * Contribute to core features across Web, Desktop, Mobile, and backend services. * Receive direct mentorship from senior technical leaders. * Participate in product and architecture discussions from day one. * Take on greater ownership and responsibility as you demonstrate your strengths. ### What We're Looking For **Required:** * Solid foundation in **TypeScript** and modern **React**. **Strongly preferred:** * Demonstrable experience in one or more of: mobile (**Swift**), desktop (**Electron/React**), or Web (**React/Node.js**, REST/WebSockets). * Proven track record delivering features that span multiple platforms (Web, Desktop Electron/React, and Mobile Swift) within a single product. * Comfort working in **GitHub-based teams** with code reviews and CI/CD pipelines. * Experience participating in early-stage product discussions and influencing architectural or technical decisions. * Active contributor to open-source projects, or a strong portfolio of side projects and extracurricular technical initiative. * Strong CS fundamentals; a degree in Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field is preferred. * Enthusiasm for a fast-paced, early-stage startup environment where the roadmap evolves quickly. * Willingness to work from our **Munich, Germany office** in a hybrid arrangement (on-site presence is required as part of this role). ### Location & Work Arrangement This is a **hybrid role** based in **Munich, Germany**. Regular on-site presence at our Munich office is expected. Fully remote arrangements are not available for this position. ### About the Team & Culture * Small, senior-calibre engineering team with backgrounds at top-tier enterprise software and consulting organisations. * You'll have a real voice in shaping the product, the architecture, and the team culture from an early stage. * 0–3 years of experience is the target range — this is an ideal role for a strong early-career engineer who wants to grow fast in a high-ownership environment.
