Systems Engineer
Location: Germany
Shopware is a leading ecommerce system that enables companies worldwide to scale quickly and efficiently in digital commerce.
In this role, you’ll be part of the Agentic Commerce Lab
, a startup‑like team within our scale‑up, dedicated to exploring how agentic systems will shape commerce by 2030. We build new products
, run fast experiments
, and prove what is possible
.
Join us on the zero‑to‑one journey and shape the future of commerce as part of a strategic moonshot at Shopware
. This is not a “wait for requirements” kind of role. You operate as an entrepreneur inside Shopware, acting like an owner. You will drive ideas from inception to production
.
This position can be filled on‑site
, hybrid
, or full‑remote within Germany or specific European countries where we are registered. Your work location will be agreed upon in advance and forms the basis of your employment contract.
Build what is next: You live in our customers' relative future. Push the edge of what is possible with the latest in AI, often without documentation or playbooks.
End‑to‑end ownership: responsibility for your bets from idea to production.
Ship fast: You can just ship things, both because you have the permission to and because you are comfortable iterating in public.
Own the full stack: Work across frontend, backend, and AI infrastructure to ship complete merchant‑facing capabilities.
Experiment with everything: Test new models, agentic techniques, and architectural patterns weekly; share learnings with the team.
Make AI reliable: Build robust systems with graceful degradation, monitoring, and human‑in‑the‑loop fallbacks.
Optimize for cost and latency: Balance model capabilities with real‑world constraints of production commerce systems.
None of these is a hard requirement. Most important is a desire to continuously learn and live on the bleeding edge of AI developments. At the frontier, the only constant is change, and we're looking for folks who want to thrive here.
Bias to action: You prefer prototypes over decks, and experiments over endless discussions.
Self‑starter DNA: You thrive in ambiguity and love figuring things out without a detailed map.
AI native: You default to 10x yourself with AI. You stay at the bleeding edge of emerging model capabilities and are excited about sharing what you’ve learned with others.
Vibe‑code fluency: Hands‑on experience with modern AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Replit, v0, Lovable, etc.) and comfortable going from concept to clickable demo in a day.
Product mindset: You care about outcomes, not just outputs, and design with merchants, shoppers, and developers in mind.
Collaborative spirit: Open to learning from and co‑building with peers inside and outside Shopware.
Product engineer mindset: You care about merchant outcomes, not just technically elegant solutions.
Learn‑by‑building bias: You prefer spinning up a prototype to reading documentation, then document what you discover.
AI engineering fundamentals: Prompting, evals, retrieval‑based grounding and knowledge integration for production LLM systems.
Infrastructure awareness: You understand cloud costs, latency budgets, and scaling considerations.
Be part of a strategic moonshot at Shopware and shape what's next in commerce.
Access to dedicated AI budget, tools, and the freedom to move at startup speed.
Company Culture: Open culture with flat hierarchies, where individual initiative is encouraged.
Employment Contracts: Permanent positions that offer long‑term security.
Flexibility: Flexible working hours and options for mobile work and full‑remote contracts.
Equipment: Freedom to choose your preferred work hardware.
Onboarding: Well‑structured onboarding with support from a personal “buddy.”
Work Environment: An inspiring environment with dedicated colleagues and a dynamic community.
Development Opportunities: Diverse opportunities for personal growth and development.
Additional Benefits: Attractive perks such as company pension plans, health programs, and regular team events.
... and much more!
