Founding Engineer

We’re looking for a Founding Engineer to work directly with leadership on high-impact, zero-to-one projects. If you love taking full ownership, moving fast, and building real products end-to-end, we want to hear from you.

FOUNDING ENGINEER

€90K – €150K

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

• Build core product features end-to-end (backend and/or mobile/web), from idea to production.
• Take full ownership of projects: scope, architecture, implementation, and rollout.
• Jump onto critical initiatives (SDK, network, new product bets) and unblock them fast.
• Ship high-quality, testable code at high speed.
• Work closely with whoever is needed to shape what we build next.
• Using AI tools (Claude, Cursor, Copilot, etc.) as part of your everyday toolkit — we actively encourage AI-assisted development.

WHAT YOU NEED:

• Strong experience as a senior-level engineer in product teams.
• Deep hands-on skills in backend (e.g. TypeScript/Node).
• Proven zero-to-one experience (early-stage startup, founding engineer, or similar).
• Track record of owning complex projects and delivering them to production.

YOU ARE:

• A builder with a strong ownership mindset and high output.
• Comfortable with ambiguity, fast decisions, and a high bar for quality.
• Product-minded: you care about impact, not just code.
• A clear communicator in English, both written and spoken.

WHY ALMEDIA?

• High Impact: Work on company-defining projects, not tickets in a queue.
• Scale With Almedia: Join a profitable, high-growth startup early.
• Great Environment: Central Berlin office, transport subsidy, breakfasts and lunches, language learning, Urban Sports Club, and more.

We believe in fostering talent, evaluating all skill levels during the hiring process, and providing a clear path for growth. Almedia is an equal opportunity employer. We embrace and celebrate diversity, and encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply.
