AI in this role
Manufacturing runs on fragmented data: machines, sensors, and decade-old systems that don't speak to each other. Data sits in departmental silos, knowledge lives in people's heads, and AI can not unfold its potential in point solutions that don’t deliver. At Manex AI, we build that missing layer with our platform: It handles manufacturing data at scale, models the factory ontology and builds agentic applications that reason and act across it.
We're a small team in Munich, backed by Lightspeed and BlueYard, with engineers from top companies. We ship fast, work close to the shop floor and we don't ship things we're not proud of.
The Role
You'll build the core of our platform: From data ingestion and our ontology layer to the applications manufacturers use on the shop floor every day. The work spans backend, frontend, performance, and tooling - you'll work where your skills count most. You own features end-to-end and work directly with founders and customers.
You should apply if you
Write maintainable, tested, and performant code
Own problems from design to production
Enjoy writing and reviewing RFCs
Know at least one of React, Python, TypeScript, or Rust
Thrive in the pace of an early-stage startup
Have 2+ years of professional experience
Nice to have
PostgreSQL, DuckDB or experience with lakehouse formats
Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, or AWS
ML and LLM systems
CI/CD pipelines, preferably GitHub Actions
Monitoring distributed enterprise systems
Open standards (e.g. RDF, OWL, SHACL)
What we offer
A cooperative team where you never solve hard problems alone
Competitive salary and equity
High trust and ownership from day one
Corporate Wellpass membership, subsidized public transport
Regular offsites with the greatest team - think austrian mountains, lakeside retreats, or european cities
Relocation support, incl. corporate housing offers
Are you willing to start contributing to European autonomy at scale? Apply now!
