1KOMMA5°

Deine Position

You'll help shape the Virtual Assembly Line (VAL) team, which builds and scales our growth and operations systems: MarTech, CRM, Payment, Fulfillment and Installation, so we can scale globally with maximum efficiency and quality.

• Own technical direction across VAL's growth and operations engineering domain, keeping architecture aligned with product direction, and hold the team accountable for consistent execution of those decisions

• Set the technical bar for the teams, stepping into the hardest problems yourself rather than just directing others

• Translate business and product requirements into technical solutions that scale as we digitize the installation branches further

• Architect our systems and APIs so AI agents operate as first-class users with machine-readable contracts

• Drive VAL's shift to agentic engineering, reshaping how the team works so agents execute safely while humans stay accountable

• Mentor and challenge engineers within VAL to accelerate their growth

• Build a high-performing engineering culture within the VAL team

• Embed security and reliability as direct customer value

Technologies you will work with include:

• AI-assisted development with Cursor / Claude and agentic coding workflows

• Languages: TypeScript (React, Nest.js, Next.js, VueJS), Ruby on Rails, Flutter

• Cloud & Infra: Google Cloud Platform, GKE (Kubernetes), Cloud Run, Terraform/IaC, Vercel, Datadog

• Data & BI: PostgreSQL, BigQuery, SQLMesh, Looker

• Linear, Notion, Figma, Miro

Dein Profil

• Extensive hands-on experience in software development with multiple general-purpose programming languages for a minimum of 10 years

• A proven track record of architecting scalable and secure systems, demonstrating a strong commitment to quality

• Extensive experience designing and implementing APIs that enable seamless integration between systems, as well as for non-human/automated consumers like AI agents

• An agile and result-oriented mindset, with a strong emphasis on collaboration and teamwork

• Experience communicating with stakeholders in business terms and understanding the technical implications of their requirements

• Experience driving technical alignment within a team in fast-paced environments, including making and following through on critical technical decisions

• Track record of leading a team through a major workflow or tooling shift, with the judgment to know where automation (including AI agents) can run safely and where human sign-off stays mandatory

• Proven ability to own features end-to-end, from rough problem statement to shipped, maintained product, working closely with product managers and business stakeholders across the company

• Strong verbal and written communication skills in English, with proficiency in German considered a plus
