Founding Engineer

About the Role This is a founding engineering position at an early-stage enterprise AI company building agents that automate complex system integrations, data migrations, and ERP implementations. You will join a small team where your decisions directly shape the architecture and set the standard for every engineer who follows. The work is critical: the software runs on production financial systems where reliability is non-negotiable. What You'll Do Design and build the agent core, including planning, execution, and self-healing loops that turn natural-language integration descriptions into production-grade data movement. Own systems end to end across connectors, the transformation engine, execution runtime, the web app, the SDK, and the MCP server. Identify and tackle the highest-leverage engineering problem each week without waiting for a spec or a ticket queue. Work directly with customers when their requests touch your systems, translating real-world needs into technical solutions. Establish engineering patterns and quality standards that will guide the next wave of hires. What We're Looking For At least 2 years of software engineering experience building and shipping production systems. Strong proficiency in TypeScript with demonstrated end-to-end application development. Proficiency in at least one additional language such as Python, Go, or C. Experience designing and implementing critical infrastructure with sound judgment on reliability and scalability. Hands-on experience with enterprise systems such as ERPs, CRMs, or data warehouse platforms (e.g. SAP, NetSuite, Salesforce, Snowflake, or similar). Experience working directly with customers on technical implementations or support. A track record at a startup or high-growth environment where ownership and speed matter. Experience building or contributing to open source projects. Strong written and verbal communication skills, including comfort engaging with customers. Bonus: experience with data migration, ETL, distributed systems, data pipelines, or LLM and agent tooling. Bonus: strong CS fundamentals from a competitive academic or self-taught background. Compensation & Benefits Salary range: 90,000 to 150,000 EUR annually. Visa sponsorship is not available. Location On-site in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, five days per week. Candidates must be based in Munich or willing to relocate.
