Software Engineer (m/f/d) – Backend & Platform | AI-First Engineering

Job description

We are modernizing a business-critical Payroll platform and building the foundation for a more scalable, service-oriented and AI-enabled product. This is a software engineering role, not an AI/ML engineering role.

We are looking for experienced engineers who are strong in backend and platform development and who already work, or want to work, in an AI-first engineering environment.

AI-assisted development is part of the normal engineering workflow: understanding existing systems, exploring solutions, writing and reviewing code, creating tests, documenting decisions and accelerating delivery. You will work on gradually transforming an established, business-critical product without disrupting the proven Payroll logic behind it.

Your tasks

• Design and build modern backend services and platform capabilities around an established Payroll product
• Build APIs and integration points that allow Payroll capabilities to be used by modern applications and workflows
• Modernize the product incrementally rather than through a big-bang rewrite
• Work closely with existing engineers and Payroll domain experts to understand and safely evolve proven business logic 
• Establish strong engineering practices around automated testing, observability, code quality and maintainability 
• Use AI throughout the software development lifecycl
