What we offer
Your mission
- Own the product roadmap for our data platform: decide what we build, in what order, and why
- Be the architect: design the platform end to end and make the key technical decisions, from data ingestion and synchronization to processing and storage for our drones, IoT, and robotics devices
- Drive internal adoption: work with teams across the company to understand their needs, make the platform the tool they rely on, and turn their feedback into improvements
- Shape its future as a product: define the next steps to turn the platform into something we can offer externally
- Build reliable, high-performance services in Python/Django, with a strong focus on concurrency and asynchronous processing
- Run the platform on-premise today, and plan its evolution toward a hybrid setup
- Mentor engineers and set the standards for quality, observability, and security
Your profile
- 7+ years of software engineering experience, with a proven track record of leading projects from idea to production
- Experience owning a product or platform roadmap and making prioritization decisions
- Strong system design and architecture skills, including concurrency and asynchronous programming
- Ability to work independently, make sound technical decisions, and explain the trade-offs to technical and non-technical people
- Experience driving adoption of internal tools or platforms across teams, and comfort working with stakeholders
- Experience mentoring engineers and guiding a team’s technical direction
- Strong Python skills; Django experience is a strong plus
- Hands-on experience with data pipelines and distributed systems, and running services on-premise (Docker, Kubernetes)
Nice to have
- Experience turning an internal tool into a commercial product
- Cloud experience (e.g. AWS), useful as we move toward a hybrid setup
- Experience with robotics, IoT, or device data
- Rust or Go, for performance-critical components
What else
- Intrinsic motivation, attention to detail, and strong problem-solving mindset

Über uns
Wer wir sind: ein Start-up der Verteidigungstechnologie, das sich auf Lösungen für die industrielle Bildverarbeitung spezialisiert hat. Wenn Sie eine Leidenschaft für bahnbrechende Innovationen haben und Ihre Fähigkeiten einsetzen möchten, um Lösungen der nächsten Generation zu entwickeln, ist dies eine Chance für Sie!
Was wir tun: Wir entwickeln Lösungen, die es Computern und Sensoren ermöglichen, in Teams zusammenzuarbeiten, um neue Sicherheitsherausforderungen zu bewältigen. Unsere Hauptaufgabe ist die Abwehr von KI-gestützten asymmetrischen Bedrohungen in großem Maßstab, wie z. B. Drohnenschwärme und andere UXVs.
Wie wir arbeiten: Wir setzen auf eine hybride Arbeitskultur - wir schätzen die Zusammenarbeit im Büro, ermöglichen unseren Teammitgliedern aber auch die eigenverantwortliche und selbstständige Arbeit aus der Ferne.
Wo wir sind: Mit Sitz in München, Berlin und Toulouse expandieren wir schnell in ganz Europa und planen, bald weitere Büros zu eröffnen.
