About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

AI orchestration as a core skill: You think in agent pipelines rather than individual prompts.
You orchestrate Claude Code (and similar agentic frameworks) so that multiple agents work in parallel on features, refactorings, and tests, and you evaluate, curate, and correct their outputs deliberately.
Maximize product landscape optimization: You identify where the existing codebase (Java backend, JavaScript frontend) can be made faster, more robust, and more maintainable through AI-assisted new development and enhancements, and you implement these changes autonomously.
Architecture & quality control: You understand, validate, and safely integrate AI-generated code into existing architectures.
You define the guardrails (tests, reviews, best practices) that turn agent output into reliable software.
Technical conception within the core team: You develop new ideas and technologies for backend and frontend together with the core team and introduce AI workflows into the entire development process.
Performance & scaling: You design and implement measures for quality assurance and performance optimization.
Technical sparring partner: As a last-level support and point of contact for product owners and sales, you translate between business requirements and technical solutions.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Several years of solid experience in software development with Java and optionally JavaScript (or comparable languages).
You know clean code because you have written it for years.
Regular, productive use of agentic AI tools in daily development, ideally Claude Code, Cursor, or similar — not as an experiment but as a primary working tool.
Experience in prompt and context engineering for precise code generation as well as in evaluating, hardening, and integrating AI-generated code.
Degree in (business) computer science or a comparable qualification (e.g., Fachinformatiker with relevant experience).
Very good knowledge of German, spoken and written (mandatory), and good English.
Structured, independent working style and experience with agile methods (Scrum).

Top equipment: High-end hardware and height-adjustable desk, also for home office.
