Founding AI Engineer (m/f/d)

  • Berlin, Berlin, Germany
  • Full-Time
  • On-Site

Job Description:

A stealth-stage startup in Berlin is making its first dedicated AI hire — and the search runs confidentially through Gunia Consulting.


The role

Own the AI layer end to end: architecture, LLM integration, agent workflows, evaluation, production. Work directly with the founders and set the technical direction the future team inherits. Ship fast, measure honestly, document what you build.


Your profile

You have shipped LLM-based features to real users in production — not demos. Strong software engineering foundation; fluent in Python and/or TypeScript. Pragmatic about models and providers: evaluate, measure, swap. Based in Berlin or ready to be; English is the working language.


What you get

Founding-engineer scope and equity. Direct line to the founders. No layers, no legacy. Terms are discussed directly in conversation.


The company name is shared in the first conversation — the confidentiality protects a head start, not a weakness.
