Founding ML Engineer

Stellenbeschreibung:

Fashion e-commerce is one of the world’s largest consumer markets, yet the core experience has barely evolved in decades. We’re here to change that with a proprietary model pipeline which is based on ML and physical simulation. We’ve just raised a €2M pre‑seed from PlutoCapital, run by a group of Germany’s most successful e-commerce entrepreneurs and are now looking for founding engineers crazy enough to join our mission.

Tasks

As one of our first hires, you'll have unprecedented technical autonomy to architect a novel ML system from the ground up, working directly with founders who understand that breakthrough ML requires both deep technical expertise and creative freedom.

You’ll be solving genuinely hard problems that don’t have established solutions – the kind that require reading papers, prototyping novel approaches, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in production systems.

Architect novel, high-performance ML systems: You have the freedom to think beyond a single part of the system. Challenge our ideas and solutions. You should think beyond a single model in search of the best solution for the overall pipeline.
Own the full research‑to‑production pipeline: From experimenting with cutting‑edge techniques to building robust evaluation frameworks to optimizing inference at scale – you control the entire technical journey.
Build the infrastructure: You won’t hand off your model to a different person – you’ll design and own the APIs and infrastructure that serve your model, ensuring they scale from 10 to 100k users.

Requirements

You like working on complex problems and find creative solutions to those.
You are experienced with ML .
You prefer building things from scratch .
You think building in one room together makes a huge difference.
You thrive in an environment where you can work autonomously .
You love working in fast‑paced environments .
You also like to work in software engineering from time to time.

Co‑Founders

Caterina (CEO): Product builder by heart. Loves to create products that people really like to use.
Paul (CTO): A true geek by heart. Loves to experiment, innovate and push the boundaries of what’s possible.

We’re on fire when we’re building products that combine real technological depth with an experience that simply feels right for users. If that sounds like you (even if not all requirements are met 100%) – let’s talk!
