Co-Founder & CTO

Germany

acemate is building the leading AI learning & teaching platform for higher education institutions. We have strong traction, secured funding and are entering an exciting growth phase. We're looking for a passionate **Full-Stack Developer Working Student** to drive our product forward and help us scale.

**About acemate**

Founded less than a year ago, acemate has quickly become Germany's leading AI learning platform for higher and further education, trusted by top-tier institutions across four countries, including **University of Cologne**, **WHU** and the **Deutsche Industrie- und Handelskammer (DIHK)**.

*   **Our Mission:** Democratizing access to personalized learning. We don’t believe that AI will replace educators. Instead, we empower them to design and deliver personalized learning experiences at scale.
*   **Our Growth:** We've raised pre-seed funding and are growing rapidly. While we focus on higher education today, we're already expanding into new regions and markets.
*   **Our Culture:** We’re a young, driven team passionate about tackling the toughest challenges in education. We embrace builder culture and minimize scheduled meetings for ad-hoc discussions and maximized focus on coding and creating.

*   [**Jan**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jan-tiegges/) **(CTO):** NLP research, experience from SAP & N26, morning bike commuter

We have an office in Berlin and believe in the value of in-person work, but we’re also realistic about the time people spend commuting.

*   **Commitment to excellence:** You’re driven to go above and beyond when it matters
*   **Curiosity and adaptability:** Eager to learn new technologies and stay open to innovation
*   **Balanced AI approach:** You knew how to code before Cursor and AI tools, but understand how to leverage them effectively
*   **Availability:** You're based in Berlin, enrolled at a university, and available for a minimum of 12 months.
