About the Role

This is a high-ownership engineering role on a lean team building agentic AI systems that observe, decide, and act on real-world property operations — with humans in the loop. You'll work end-to-end across the stack, modernising legacy systems and turning messy operational workflows into reliable, autonomous software that powers the short-term rental industry across Europe.

What You'll Do

• Own features end-to-end, from requirement gathering through to production-ready software.

• Design and build agentic AI workflows for guest communication (chat and voice), operational decisions, and property tasks.

• Modernise legacy systems and redesign data structures to meet evolving product requirements.

• Shadow real operational workflows to uncover inefficiencies, workarounds, and hidden steps.

• Translate messy processes into clean, scalable software — scoping, shipping, and iterating rather than working through tickets.

• Collaborate closely with internal teams to align product and engineering direction.

• Operate with high agency: plan your own work, communicate progress, and flag blockers proactively.

What We're Looking For

• Demonstrable full-stack engineering experience with a portfolio or track record you can walk through.

• Strong TypeScript skills — this is a hard requirement.

• Familiarity with React, Express, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and AWS; comfortable using Linear and Notion for tracking and documentation.

• Experience working in an agentic engineering style (e.g. running multiple AI coding agents and terminals in parallel).

• Strong product taste — attention to UX detail down to message wording and interaction design.

• Proven ability to ship quickly while exercising sound judgement about what can safely break.

• Fluent English and strong written communication skills.

• Startup mindset: thrives in small, outcome-focused teams rather than process-heavy environments.

• Willingness to relocate to Germany and work from the Leipzig office regularly.

• Bonus: founder mentality or prior experience founding a startup.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary range: €90,000 – €110,000 per year. Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.

Location

On-site in Leipzig, Saxony, Germany. Candidates must be willing to relocate to Germany and attend the office in person.
