(Senior) Backend Engineer (m/f/d) Data & AI Services - Remote

At Xentral, we’re transforming how businesses use data — from analytics to automation. To strengthen our capabilities, we’re looking for a Software Engineer who thrives in a cross-functional environment and wants to build scalable services, extend existing infrastructure, and help shape our AI platform.

This role combines hands-on development, architectural thinking, and long-term impact: from building services in Golang and integrating with our PHP-based core, to driving the development of our internal AI platform in Python.

• You develop and maintain backend services and data pipelines using Golang, contributing to our evolving service architecture
• You tackle infrastructure topics related to scalability, performance, and deployment
• You collaborate closely with the Xentral Core (PHP) team — with the opportunity to deepen your PHP knowledge over time
• You take ownership of our internal AI platform in Python, supporting analytics and automation use cases
• You contribute to the development of our new Analytics platform, then transition into broader engineering initiatives
• You work cross-functionally with product, core backend, and data teams

• You have 3+ years of hands-on experience in software engineering or data engineering
• You bring a strong background in Golang and Python - and you’re excited about building scalable services in both
• You’re interested in infrastructure and architecture topics beyond writing code
• You enjoy working at the intersection of backend systems and data — from services to pipelines to AI tools
• You’re proactive, take ownership of your work, and bring a drive to push things forward
• You’re fluent in English; German is a plus

• Flexible Work Environment: Enjoy remote work options across Europe or from our office-hubs in Augsburg, Amsterdam, Berlin, Munich, and Lohne (Oldenburg), along with flexible working hours.


• Competitive Compensation & Comprehensive Benefits: Attractive salary packages and a generous leave policy that includes 28 annual leave days, special leave days, and nursing care days. Our comprehensive benefits package also provides a monthly voucher to choose from a variety of providers, including Urban Sports Club, grocery stores, entertainment, and lifestyle options. Additionally, we equip all employees with state-of-the-art home office equipment and offer a 50% subsidy on private pension plans for permanent employees in Germany.


• Professional Growth & Development: Benefit from a significant budget dedicated to learning and personal development, supporting your career growth and continuous learning.


• Inclusive & Engaging Culture: Participate in virtual and in-person company events and in our yearly culture connect days, fostering a collaborative and vibrant company culture with minimal hierarchies and respectful communication.


• Diverse & International Team: Work alongside a multicultural and international team across 17 different work locations within Europe and 32 nationalities, embracing diversity and a global perspective.


• Mental Health & Well-being: Access comprehensive, evidence-based mental health care with 24/7 counseling, therapy placement, on-site support, and legal and financial guidance to help you thrive at work and in life.
