Job Description & How to Apply Below
Location: Zürich
We are seeking a Full-Stack Software Engineer to strengthen our engineering team. In this role you will help design, build, and ship new functionality across our stack:
From back-end services and cloud infrastructure to the applications our customers rely on inside recycling plants.
This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who thinks end-to-end. You will take on real engineering challenges: reasoning through the logic, drafting the architecture, deciding how a solution should be deployed and served, and then implementing it. As a small, fast-moving startup, we need someone comfortable working across the full stack and able to own a challenge from idea to production, a true startup generalist.
Responsibilities- Take engineering challenges end-to-end - define the logic, draft the architecture, decide how the solution is deployed and served, and implement it.
- Design, build, and deploy back-end services and APIs on Google Cloud, using Cloud Run, VMs and Firebase Functions.
- Model, store, and serve data reliably with Firebase and No
SQL databases. - Write clean, maintainable Python across services and internal tooling.
- Containerize and ship applications with Docker, using Git/Git Hub for version control.
- Contribute to front-end applications (React, and potentially Swift-iOS).
- Maintain high standards for code quality, scalability, and reliability in production environments.
- A university degree in computer science, computer engineering, or related field.
- Several years of software engineering experience across the stack.
- Strong proficiency in Python and solid general software engineering fundamentals.
- Proven ability to solve engineering challenges end-to-end, from logic and architecture through to deployment and serving.
- Experience with cloud and serverless technologies (Google Cloud, Cloud Run, Firebase Functions).
- Experience with No
SQL databases (Firebase). - Experience with Docker and Git/Git Hub.
- Comfortable working autonomously in a fast‑paced startup environment with high ownership.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills.
- Front-end development experience with React.
- iOS development experience with Swift.
- Experience with edge systems:
Python on Linux, containerized deployments, and on-device trade-offs. - Familiarity with industrial, IoT, or real-time monitoring systems.
