Your role in the team

  • Build and operate infrastructure for production AI applications—from the development environment and CI/CD to stable operation at the customer’s site, and also:
  • Put LLM and agentic AI systems into production: inference and model-serving endpoints, vector databases, RAG pipelines, MCP servers—scalable, secure, and cost-conscious.
  • Own observability and quality: latency, token and infrastructure costs, agent tracing, automated evaluations and regression tests.
  • Automate consistently instead of doing things manually: Infrastructure as Code, GitOps, containerized, reproducible deployments.
  • Ensure security and compliance: secrets and access management, guardrails, traceability in accordance with the EU AI Act.
  • Advise customers on architecture and operational decisions—as a technical sparring partner, not as an account manager.

Our expectations of you

Education

  • Degree in (Business) Informatics, Data Science, AI, or a related field—or equivalent practical experience as a career changer, e.g. with completed vocational training as an IT specialist in system integration.

Qualifications

  • Solid DevOps foundation: containers/Kubernetes, CI/CD, agile development environment.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Helm, or GitOps).
  • Python plus at least one other language (Go, TypeScript/JavaScript, Java, C# or Shell).
  • Basic understanding of LLM systems: RAG architectures, prompting, agent frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI).
  • German at C1 level, English at B2 level – confident in customer interactions and able to lead a workshop when needed.

Experience

  • Several years of experience in software development and operations.
  • Senior role: several years of hands-on experience designing and operating production systems.
  • Cloud experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP), deployment as a container, API, or serverless.

What we offer

  • Remote work is not just tolerated here—it’s an option: anywhere in Germany, hybrid, or fully remote.
