About the role
Description supplied by the original job listing.
ABOUT THE ROLE
This is a co-founder role at a pre-seed AI-powered smart home intelligence platform, where you will own the full technical vision and architecture. You will work at the intersection of IoT, cloud, and AI/ML to build systems that help properties detect anomalies, optimize energy, and manage connected devices. Your decisions will shape the product and engineering culture from the ground up.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Own and evolve the end-to-end technical architecture across IoT, cloud, and AI/ML layers.
- Lead and grow the engineering team, including hiring and mentoring engineers.
- Drive the technical side of the product roadmap, balancing innovation with practical execution.
- Write production code and solve critical technical problems hands-on alongside your team.
- Represent the technical vision to investors, partners, and external stakeholders.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- 10+ years of experience in software engineering or technical leadership, with 3+ years in senior technical leadership roles.
- Proven 0-to-1 startup experience as a co-founder or early CTO, not a purely large-company background.
- Strong IoT and embedded systems background with hands-on product shipping experience.
- Cloud architecture expertise, ideally on AWS, with demonstrated ability to design and deploy scalable systems.
- AI/ML product experience applied to real-world, production systems.
- Experience building and leading an engineering team from scratch.
- Hands-on coder who actively writes production code, not purely a manager.
- Hardware and software crossover experience, with an understanding of embedded and software systems integration.
- Familiarity with smart home, building tech, or energy management domains is a plus.
- German or Spanish language skills are a plus.
- Comfortable working with a stack that includes React, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, Raspberry Pi, and IoT platforms.
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
- Salary range: 60,000 to 100,000 EUR annually, discussed case by case.
- Co-founding equity up to 5% via an earn-in structure.
- Visa sponsorship is not available.
