We're building an AI-first LegalTech company where humans focus on thinking, systems, and decisions, and AI handles the bulk of execution.

We move fast, ship often, and operate with a high degree of ownership. There's no heavy hierarchy, no rigid roles, and no waiting for permission. If something is missing, we build it.

What you'll do

You'll work across our full platform: React Native, React, TypeScript, Python, FastAPI, and more.
Write specifications detailed enough that a teammate or an AI agent can implement them.
Push back on ideas. We expect you to treat product decisions as your own.
Automate everything that can be automated: internal tools, ops, QA, deploys, your own workflow.
Carry the mental load of several tasks at the same time. AI does the coding; you do the thinking and review.

How we code

We write all code with AI. Writing it by hand isn't fast enough for us.
Our coding velocity is very high. We ship multiple big features every week or two.
Humans design and architect features. AI writes the rest.
All code reviews require human approval.

Who we're looking for

Strong hands-on experience building and architecting complex systems. You've owned non-trivial systems end-to-end.
A communicator. You can present ideas, defend them, change your mind on good input, and write things down clearly.
A generalist mindset. We hire on willingness to learn whatever is needed. Your current stack doesn't have to be ours. Specialists are welcome if they're willing to stretch.
Willing to code with AI by default. Prior experience isn't required. You'll demonstrate it on the test day.
Comfortable in a flat structure. You won't have a PM filtering your work, an architect handing you a design, or a manager turning problems into tickets.
Bias toward solutions. If something is missing, build it.

What to expect

This is not a 9-to-6 job. The load is uneven, and overtime can come at any time.
We are a small team. We don't have a large engineering org or an internal platform team.
Roles overlap. Designers and non-engineers write code, and engineers do product work. If that doesn't suit you, this isn't the place.
Specs and priorities change. Anything in your queue today can be different next week.
Direct feedback is the norm. It goes both ways.

Stack

Where and how we work

Berlin or Potsdam.
Working language is English.
Plus 1 month per year work from anywhere.

Compensation

Salary is competitive.
Equity is above average for a German startup, on purpose. We want engineers who feel like owners.
Intro call (~30 minutes). First impressions on both sides; we decide if it's worth continuing.
CTO interview (~1 hour). Can get technical, no live coding. We want to see how you think, design, and argue.
Test day. About half a day in the office with the team, working on a real task. Not a toy exercise. This is where we see how you use AI tooling on real work.
