Associate Founding Engineer (Full-Stack)

About the Role

We're an early-stage, Munich-based startup building an AI-powered digital assistant for B2B sales teams. Our product automates the administrative burden of sales work — from meeting preparation and real-time note-taking (without audio recording, fully GDPR-compliant) to CRM updates and follow-up management — so sales professionals can focus on what they do best: selling.

Our engineering team is small and moving fast. We're building a true multi-platform product: a React Web App, an Electron Desktop Client, a Swift Mobile App, and two backend services. As an Associate Founding Engineer (Full-Stack), you'll work side-by-side with founding engineers from the very beginning — learning deeply, contributing meaningfully, and growing quickly as you take on increasing responsibility.

Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.

What You'll Do

• Learn from and support founding engineers on real, high-impact product work.

• Contribute to core features across Web, Desktop, Mobile, and backend services.

• Receive direct mentorship from senior technical leaders.

• Participate in product and architecture discussions from day one.

• Take on greater ownership and responsibility as you demonstrate your strengths.

What We're Looking For

Required:

• Solid foundation in TypeScript and modern React.

Strongly preferred:

• Demonstrable experience in one or more of: mobile (Swift), desktop (Electron/React), or Web (React/Node.js, REST/WebSockets).

• Proven track record delivering features that span multiple platforms (Web, Desktop Electron/React, and Mobile Swift) within a single product.

• Comfort working in GitHub-based teams with code reviews and CI/CD pipelines.

• Experience participating in early-stage product discussions and influencing architectural or technical decisions.

• Active contributor to open-source projects, or a strong portfolio of side projects and extracurricular technical initiative.

• Strong CS fundamentals; a degree in Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field is preferred.

• Enthusiasm for a fast-paced, early-stage startup environment where the roadmap evolves quickly.

• Willingness to work from our Munich, Germany office in a hybrid arrangement (on-site presence is required as part of this role).

Location & Work Arrangement

This is a hybrid role based in Munich, Germany. Regular on-site presence at our Munich office is expected. Fully remote arrangements are not available for this position.

About the Team & Culture

• Small, senior-calibre engineering team with backgrounds at top-tier enterprise software and consulting organisations.

• You'll have a real voice in shaping the product, the architecture, and the team culture from an early stage.

• 0–3 years of experience is the target range — this is an ideal role for a strong early-career engineer who wants to grow fast in a high-ownership environment.
