Software Engineer, Foundation

Department: Engineering

Location: Berlin

Employment Type: FullTime

About the Role

This is a foundational engineering role on the team that builds the technical base — Flutter mobile app, agentic and AI infrastructure, developer experience, and Go services — that 25+ engineers rely on to ship to millions of students. You'll work across platform and product, multiplying the impact of everyone building on top of you.

What You'll Do

• Own core parts of the Flutter app: shared components, design system, state management, performance, and tooling.

• Build and maintain agentic and AI infrastructure — MCP servers, a background agent platform, evals, and feedback loops.

• Help integrate agentic coding tools into day-to-day engineering workflows across the team.

• Improve developer experience through CI/CD, release tooling, and tightening the loop between writing code and seeing it live.

• Ship user-facing product features alongside platform work.

• Keep the foundation reliable so a growing engineering team can build on it with confidence.

What We're Looking For

• 2–4 years of production experience building mobile (Flutter/Dart) or web applications — hands-on Flutter/Dart experience is essential.

• Daily, fluent use of agentic coding tools (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, or similar), with a genuine perspective on where they excel and where they fall short.

• An eye for design — you notice inconsistent spacing, an animation that feels off, or a component that's close but not quite right.

• Clear written communication in English and a bias toward improving systems that slow other people down.

• Strong academic background in Computer Science or a related field from a well-regarded university.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary: €80,000 – €110,000 per year. Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
