About the Role
From Europe, for Europe – we are building the leading business AI.
We are Cologne's fastest-growing AI start-up.
SMEs benefit when internal knowledge becomes immediately usable and intelligent agents can respond to it. We believe in a future where business AI – including agents within amber and other platforms – works on a shared context layer, enabling teams to work faster, handoffs to be seamless, and expertise to remain within the company.
As a Staff Engineer (F/M/*) at amber, you are more than just a developer. You are a technical leader who drives innovation and shapes the future of our products and engineering teams. In this role, you will work hands-on with complex software systems while defining architectural direction, ensuring scalability, and setting new standards for code quality. Your day-to-day will range from designing solutions for high-impact challenges to mentoring engineers across teams and collaborating closely with product and design to deliver outstanding, user-centric technology.
If you’re passionate about building scalable systems that impact thousands of users every day, this is your chance to shape the future with us. Join a team that values technical excellence, mentorship and continuous learning.
YOUR TASKS
- You will shape the technical foundation and architecture of products that reach and impact thousands of users every day
- You work on evolving and scaling our software systems to ensure long-term reliability, performance, and sustainability
- You guide engineering teams through complex technical choices, providing clarity and enabling delivery
- You set the standard for code quality, engineering best practices, and system performance across the organization
- You mentor and inspire other engineers, fostering growth, knowledge sharing, and technical leadership
- You collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and other stakeholders to turn ideas into robust, user-centric solutions
- You champion a culture of innovation, continuous learning, and engineering excellence that drives both people and products forward
YOUR QUALIFICATIONS
- You have extensive experience in professional software engineering, including leading complex technical initiatives and driving impactful projects
- You bring deep expertise in system architecture, scalable systems, and performance optimization
- You are fluent in modern programming practices and have hands-on experience across both frontend and backend technologies; you reliably complete tasks you have started
- You have a proven track record of guiding engineering teams through technical trade-offs and high-stakes architectural choices
- You mentor and inspire engineers at all levels, fostering growth, knowledge sharing, and technical excellence
- You communicate with clarity and collaborate effectively across teams, disciplines, and stakeholders
- We put our ambitions above our egos. We are a young, highly ambitious team; your ambition must be stronger than your ego
- You are passionate about continuous learning and shaping an engineering culture that combines innovation with long-term sustainability
You stay up to date with emerging technologies and trends and know when to adopt them, or when to question the hype.
YOUR BENEFITS
- Team offsites – Since you will be working in an international team, we all meet twice a year somewhere in Europe
- Attractive remuneration (see in the description). In addition, we reward outstanding employees with company shares, allowing them to participate directly in the company's success
- Start at a company that lets you grow – whether you want to develop your skills in the field or learn new ones
- We promote your personal development through further training and room for personal responsibility
- We live a hybrid working model: we believe it is important to work together in person on a regular basis. That's why we meet three times a week at one of our locations
- The choice is yours: either a subsidised Germany-wide Deutschlandticket or an Urban Sports Club membership are on us
- A team of motivated people who are keen to make AI solutions accessible to medium-sized companies
- Work with the latest technologies and tools 🔨
A FEW WORDS AT THE END
Here, you’ll have the opportunity to take on responsibility from day one: Shape innovative solutions and contribute your expertise to the development of a groundbreaking AI product.
