[Hiring] Senior AI Engineer @JTL-Software GmbH

Role Description

We are looking for two AI Engineers who make AI agents a reliable part of our developers' everyday work. You will enable developers to work with AI on their own through workshops, pairing, and coaching.

• Be the point of contact for the teams: collect where they get stuck, share what works across teams, and keep everyone informed.
• Build AI workflows together with development teams – from the first idea to a workflow that runs on real tickets: bug fixes, code reviews, tests.
• Make repositories ready for agents: context files, skills, rules, and the automated checks a workflow needs to validate its own work.
• Develop our internal agent platform and its integrations with Jira, GitHub, documentation, code search, and MCP servers.
• Run workflows in production: monitoring, cost, quality of results, and the data behind our scorecards.
• Evaluate new developments in coding agents, MCP, and context engineering for their practical value to us.

Qualifications

• Several years of software development experience and have built and maintained real-world products beyond prototypes.
• Clear communication skills and enjoy sharing knowledge, enabling other engineers through collaboration, explanation, and active listening.
• Hands-on experience with coding agents such as Claude Code or GitHub Copilot in your daily development workflow.
• Understanding of the practical application of LLMs, including context engineering, tool calling, and agentic workflows.
• Ability to navigate unfamiliar codebases, quickly understand their structure, and identify the context an AI agent needs to work effectively within them.
• Experience integrating APIs, tools, and data sources into software systems.
• Enjoy building custom tools, MCP servers, skills, and plugins to extend the capabilities of AI agents.
• Experience with one or more of our technology stacks, including C#, PHP, Node.js, and React.js.
• Fluency in both German and English, written and spoken.

Benefits

• Remote-first within Germany, with the option to work remotely from eligible countries for up to 180 days per year.
• Meal allowance of up to €115 net per month.
• Ergonomic workspace allowance for your home office setup.
• Regular team events, company-wide gatherings, and summer and Christmas parties to stay connected as a remote-first company.
• EGYM Wellpass and JobRad subsidy.
• Financial benefits including capital-forming payments (Vermögenswirksame Leistungen) and a company pension scheme.
