Description
About the Role
This is a rare opportunity to be the first engineering hire at a fast-moving, Y Combinator-backed startup building the marketing suite for the agentic web. The company helps brands understand and improve how AI platforms — think large language model-powered search and content tools — mention and surface them. You'll work directly with both founders and customers, owning product features from ambiguous idea all the way to live, value-delivering product.
The work spans product thinking, frontend, backend systems, LLM pipelines, data, and real customer conversations. If you thrive in early-stage environments where you shape what gets built and how, this role is for you.
What You'll Do
Own full product features end to end — identify what to build, ship it, and keep iterating until it creates real customer value.
Work side by side with the founders and customers on a daily basis.
Span the full stack: frontend UI, backend systems, LLM/agentic pipelines, and data infrastructure.
Talk directly to customers, translate those conversations into product decisions, and close the loop.
Design simple, intuitive UX for complex AI-driven workflows.
What We're Looking For
Required:
Demonstrated track record of shipping production SaaS features — you know what "done" looks like in a real product.
Comfortable owning full-stack product work from an ambiguous problem all the way to a live feature.
Strong instinct for designing clean, usable UX on top of complex workflows.
Solid experience with TypeScript and React.
Has shipped a product from 0 to 1 before (side project, startup, or early-stage role counts).
Nice to Have:
Hands-on experience with Vite, Supabase, Vercel, and/or ClickHouse.
Exposure to LLMs and agentic workflows — either in production or in the way you personally work.
Comfortable with the pace and ambiguity of an early-stage startup environment.
Soft skills:
Product-minded generalist who wants to own outcomes, not just tasks.
Enjoys direct customer contact and turning feedback into product.
Based in Munich or genuinely willing to relocate — this is an on-site role.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary: €85,000 – €120,000 per year
Equity: Meaningful VSOP (founding-team range)
Visa sponsorship: Available
True founding-team scope and impact from day one
Location
Munich, Germany — on-site. The team works together in person. Candidates must be based in Munich or willing to relocate. Start date: as soon as possible.
