• End-to-end ownership of features and issue resolution: You’ll take full responsibility for identifying, reproducing, diagnosing, fixing, testing, and deploying changes across a broad control software codebase. Along the way, you’ll make independent design decisions and contribute directly to the evolution of our systems.
• Boosting reliability and performance: You’ll strengthen core components – including planning and orchestration logic, state machines, and embedded sensor/actuator control – to reduce field bugs, regressions, and mean time to recovery (MTTR), while increasing throughput and overall system stability.
• Level 3 production support: You’ll act as the escalation point for unexpected issues in the field. Using telemetry data, you’ll triage incidents, contain impact, implement long-term fixes, and ensure that learnings from each incident are fed back into the codebase, test coverage, and operational runbooks.

Your profile

You’re passionate about innovative technologies, excited about the role, and ready to help us revolutionize the worlds of tech and culinary even further? Let’s get cooking!

These are the qualities helping you thrive in this role:

• Degree in Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field
• 8+ years of professional experience in relevant domains, ideally at the intersection of software and hardware
• Strong software development skills with a clear understanding of hardware-related contexts
• Proven experience in at least one of the following areas: academic research, startup environments, or independently developed technical projects
• Exceptional code comprehension skills – you can read and debug others’ code faster than they can
• High sense of ownership – you take full responsibility for your code, including features, bugs, and long-term maintainability
• Fluent in English – German or other languages are a plus

This is how you act & think:

• Ownership mindset: You take full responsibility for complex challenges, driving solutions end-to-end and ensuring they hold up in production
• Systems thinking: You reason across multiple layers – from planning and state machines to embedded I/O – and anticipate side effects
• Exceptional debugging skills: You work methodically and hypothesis-driven, excelling at reproducing issues, instrumenting systems, and identifying root causes
• Pragmatic engineering approach: You strike a balance between ideal design, speed, and risk, and know when to refactor versus apply a quick fix
• Clear communicator: You provide concise, precise updates and write clean tickets, pull requests, and incident reports
• Learning agility: You quickly absorb new domains, tools, and codebases, actively seek feedback, and iterate effectively
• Code quality advocate: You promote maintainable patterns, well-designed interfaces, and thorough documentation
