About the Role
This is the first engineering hire at a Y Combinator-backed AI marketing startup, working directly alongside the two founders. You will own full product features from ambiguous problem all the way to live, customer-facing product, and your work will span product thinking, frontend, backend, LLM pipelines, data, and direct customer conversations. It is a true founding-scope role with immediate, meaningful impact.
What You'll Do
-
Own product features end to end: figure out what to build, ship it, and keep iterating until it creates real customer value.
-
Work closely with the founders and customers to turn conversations into concrete product improvements.
-
Build and maintain production full-stack features across frontend, backend, and data layers.
-
Design simple, intuitive UX for complex workflows.
-
Develop and improve LLM pipelines and agentic workflows within the product.
What We're Looking For
-
Approximately 2 to 4 years of relevant engineering experience, with a strong track record appropriate for a first engineering hire.
-
Demonstrated early-stage startup or founding experience; big-company-only backgrounds are not a fit.
-
Has shipped products from 0 to 1 before and can independently deliver production-quality code.
-
Proficient with TypeScript and React; familiarity with Vite, Supabase, Vercel, or ClickHouse is a plus.
-
Comfortable working with LLMs and agentic workflows, both in the product and in day-to-day development (e.g., coding agents, MCP, or similar AI-leveraged tools).
-
Able to own full-stack product work from an ambiguous brief through to a live feature.
-
Communicates clearly and confidently with customers in English.
-
Experience in GEO, SEO, or marketing technology is a bonus.
-
Based in Munich or able to relocate readily.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary of EUR 85,000 to EUR 120,000 annually, plus equity participation (VSOP). Visa sponsorship is available.
Location
On-site in Munich, Germany. Candidates willing to relocate are welcome to apply.
