Job Description
### About the Role
Join a small, fast-moving engineering team at a seed-stage AI voice platform company building the infrastructure that powers thousands of automated customer conversations every day. This is a high-impact, end-to-end ownership role — you'll work directly alongside customers, shape core architecture decisions, and ship meaningful product experiences in an AI-first, communications-enabled environment. You'll be part of a driven, low-ego team working on-site in Berlin.
### What You'll Do
* Work closely with customers to deeply understand their problems and design product experiences that solve real challenges.
* Build scalable backend infrastructure capable of handling thousands of AI-driven phone calls per day.
* Create intuitive, AI-first user experiences that set a new standard for human–machine interaction.
* Own high-stakes projects end-to-end — from initial concept through production deployment and post-release support.
* Contribute to core architectural decisions that shape the platform's future.
### What We're Looking For
**Required**
* 2+ years of professional software engineering experience.
* Strong PostgreSQL experience, including complex queries, performance tuning, and optimization.
* Proven experience designing scalable backend architectures and making core product and architectural decisions.
* Experience with scalable async processing or real-time processing systems.
* Hands-on experience building products for AI-first or communications-enabled platforms.
* Demonstrated ability to take a product from 0 to 1 and own it through production.
* Strong cross-functional collaboration skills — able to translate customer problems into product solutions.
* Familiarity with **TypeScript, React, Node.js,** and **Python**.
* Willingness to work on-site in **Berlin, Germany**.
**Nice to Have**
* Familiarity with **Temporal.io, Twilio,** or **Modal**.
* Experience with voice infrastructure or telephony systems.
* Background at a startup or high-growth technology company.
### Compensation & Benefits
* **Salary:** €75,000 – €160,000 per year, depending on experience.
* Visa sponsorship is available.
### Location
This role is **on-site in Berlin, Germany**. Candidates must be willing and able to work from the Berlin office. Remote work is not available for this position.
