About the company My client is a leading high-tech startup
specializing in the research and development of products in the field
of artificial intelligence and autonomous systems . The goal is to
transform pioneering research results into marketable products and to

innovative solutions and technologies, they strive to ensure that
their customers can take a leading position in the constantly evolving
AI landscape. (Senior) AI Engineer - Kotlin, Java, TypeScript (m/w/d)
In permanent full-time employment Salary: 60.000 – 120.000 €
brutto / Jahr Location: Munich Ref. 31411 The Role You will work
directly with the CEO as a technical generalist , removing technical
blockers across the entire technology stack . You will develop
features, configure systems, build integrations, investigate technical
challenges, and create prototypes—exactly where the greatest impact
is currently needed. This is not a pure engineering role and not a
pure product role . It is operator work with technical substance : you
will read and write code, design architectures, work with
infrastructure, and reliably bring solutions into production. The
decisive factor is not processing tickets but sustainably resolving
technical blockers and quickly validating new ideas . You work
AI-natively : Claude Code, agentic workflows, and automation tools are
part of your daily toolkit. Your Responsibilities Identifying and
independently resolving technical blockers in customer projects,
product development, or infrastructure Implementing features in the
Kotlin backend or TypeScript frontend and targetedly expanding
existing systems Configuring customer-specific workflows,
integrations, and automations Implementing new concepts as prototypes:
AI agents , integrations, internal tools, or dashboards Reviewing pull
requests with a view to system boundaries, architecture, and component
transitions Investigating production issues together with the
engineering team and taking responsibility for their resolution until
completion Consistently utilizing AI tools: Claude Code, agent chains,
MCP servers , and customized automations are part of your standard
toolkit What the role is NOT Not a traditional software developer
position with responsibility for a single codebase – you work where
technical solutions create the greatest value Not a pure product
management role – you technically implement solutions yourself
instead of exclusively documenting requirements Not a data science or
ML research position – the focus is on transforming AI technologies
into marketable products Not a remote-only position – collaborating
within the Munich team is an important part of the role Not a role for
people who consider AI tools optional – modern AI development tools
are part of your daily way of working Your Profile Degree in computer
science, business informatics , or comparable practical experience
Confident handling of existing codebases in Kotlin, Java, TypeScript
,or Python – you can implement features independently and expand
existing systems AI-native way of working : You use Claude Code or
comparable tools daily , develop your own small tools, and know both
the strengths and limitations of AI assistants Systemic thinking : You
understand components, interfaces, error scenarios, and technical
trade-offs Enjoyment of ambiguous situations : Requirements evolve,
priorities change, and clarity arises through the work Personal
responsibility : You take ownership of a blocker and drive it to a
solution – even if you have to learn new things along the way
Excellent written and spoken English skills and German language skills
Residence in the Munich area or willingness to relocate Nice to have
