Senior Backend & AI Engineer (Remote)

This role is open only to candidates living in the EU or EEA. We can't consider applications from other locations. If you've built something before, start hereThe hardest part of a startup usually isn't the code. It's finding customers who really need what you build and getting them to change how they work. At Scalera, that part is done: manufacturers, suppliers and contractors across Switzerland, Austria and Germany already run their tenders through us every day. What we need now are people who can take the next unsolved problem and turn it into a product customers can't do without. If you've founded a company (whether it worked out or not), been the first engineer somewhere, or built something people paid for, this role was written for you. About ScaleraScalera is an ETH Zurich spin-off building AI for the €200B+ European construction industry. Large manufacturers and suppliers still run their most document-heavy processes by hand, from reading 300-page tenders to retyping purchase orders into their ERP. We automate them one by one. Our product matching already handles 1,400 tender positions in 16 minutes at 98% precision, work that used to take a sales rep most of a day. What you'll doYou'll be part product manager, part engineer. You'll spend real time with customers and help shape what we build. Sometimes you'll spot the next problem yourself, and sometimes we'll hand you a clear priority to run with. Spend real time with customers. Join calls and site visits, sit wit
