Full-Stack Engineer (f/m/x)

We work remotely with regular opportunities to travel and meet as a team, balancing flexibility with strong collaboration rituals. You must live in Berlin, residency is required; day-to-day work stays fully remote.

What you’ll do

• Build and iterate on full-stack features for our learning platform, directly shaping how staff and learners use challenges, milestones, and AI-assisted workflows.
• Develop and maintain our Next.js application and related frontend components.
• Implement and improve backend services, APIs, and data flows using MongoDB.
• Help design and implement simple, safe AI-based product loops (prompt → structured output → human review → save) — pragmatic, not research-heavy.
• Collaborate with product, design, QA, engineering, and academic stakeholders in a low-ego environment that values trust, ownership, and clear communication.
• Bring product sense into engineering discussions — question scope, propose simpler paths, and care about the user journey as much as the implementation.

What you bring

• Experience shipping web product features end-to-end. Portfolio / side projects welcome if motivation and judgment are clear. We care about ramp speed and ownership.
• Comfortable with TypeScript and modern React; Next.js experience preferred — willingness to ramp fast matters more than years of Next.js.
• Practical experience with MongoDB or similar NoSQL databases.
• Exposure to LLMs based projects and judgment around AI — prior LLM shipping is a plus.
• A product mindset: you care about user experience, reliability, and impact, not just code or models.
• Curiosity for education, and working in a mission-driven environment — high energy for ToU’s mission beats a perfect CV.

Nice to have

• Experience with AWS and serverless environments such as AWS Lambda.
• Experience with structured LLM outputs, basic evals, or human-in-the-loop UX.
• Background in edtech or regulated environments.
• Knowledge in deployment, monitoring, and operational practices.
• Experience collaborating tightly with product/design in a fast-paced startup environment
• German language is a plus, not required.

What Matters to Us

We care about people who take ownership, communicate clearly, learn quickly, and genuinely care about the people using what they build. We value pragmatism over perfection, collaboration over ego, and thoughtful product decisions over complexity for complexity’s sake.
