AI & Automation Engineer

Location: Ortisei

About Demitas  Demitas is a software engineering company from Ortisei. We integrate AI into workflows, automate data and build custom software, mainly for mid-sized and large companies. From requirements analysis to go-live, we build systems that are easy to follow, maintain and develop further.
Our projects are as varied as our customers: assistants that answer questions in many languages, automations that take routine work off teams, AI that helps create milling programs, firmware for embedded systems and a test bench that checks cable harnesses in production. With us you see how an idea becomes a system that people work with every day.
Why we are hiring  Our projects keep growing. That is why we are looking for someone who makes sure each of them is delivered on time, cleanly and to the customer's satisfaction.
What you will do  You deliver our projects, from requirements to acceptance. You work closely with the founders and take on more and more responsibility over time.
Work out requirements.  You turn what our customers want into clear requirements and concrete tasks.
Build and automate.  You build prototypes and complete systems and automate recurring work, with AI where it helps.
Test and run.  You test against the requirements, put solutions into operation and keep them running reliably.
Keep projects on track.  You watch schedule and effort, keep planning and documentation in order and speak up early when something goes off course.
What you bring  The projects you have brought to a successful finish matter more to us than titles or certificates.
You have already delivered software, IT or digitalization projects.
You work confidently with APIs, databases and Git and implement solutions on your own.
You have automated workflows or built AI services into software before.
You keep track of several projects at once and let nothing slip.
You handle data, access rights and security with care and know the basics of the GDPR.
You speak at least two of German, Italian and English fluently. All three are a big plus.
Nice to have   A technical degree

Experience with agile methods (Scrum, Kanban) and common project management tools

Experience with Kubernetes

Experience with FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Docker or React

Experience with Microsoft Azure
A network in South Tyrol
How we work  We are a small team in which every person moves a lot and carries a lot of responsibility.
Results, not hours.  We do not count attendance. What matters is that our projects land well with the customer.
Direct feedback, both ways.  We say openly what is going well and what is not, and we expect you to tell us when we are wrong.
Little process, lots of trust.  Short paths and quick decisions. You get access and responsibility for delivery from day one.
High standards, no burnout.  We live in the Dolomites for a reason. Focus is the goal, not late nights.
What we offer    A key role in a small team.  With real influence on how Demitas delivers projects.
Salary.  Graded under the Italian collective agreement for commerce (CCNL Commercio), plus a performance bonus.
Variety.  Projects from many industries, from software to firmware.
Budget.  For tools, hardware, courses and conferences.
Hybrid and flexible hours.  With an office in Ortisei and the Dolomites outside the window.
Growth.  As Demitas grows, so does your responsibility.
We look forward to meeting you.
This role is not for everyone. If you are looking for a narrowly defined job, a large team or a slow pace, it is not a fit. If you want to own projects from start to finish and see your impact every week, it is.
