Germany

At **Maxmove**, we're building a **full-stack AI logistics platform** that transforms the way goods move. We are creating the operating system for logistics — a digital infrastructure that makes transporting goods as seamless and connected as the internet. Starting in Germany, we are laying the foundation for smarter and more efficient logistics.

If you enjoy **0→1** building, are a **great engineer**, and want to have real impact in shaping a generational company, you should join us.

## Tasks

As **Founding Engineer**, you’ll play a key role in building **Maxmove.**

*   **Own core product development**: design and implement backend services, APIs, and architecture for Maxmove’s logistics platform.
*   Manage **infrastructure**: databases, event bus, cloud deployments, monitoring, and CI/CD.
*   Collaborate on **technical roadmap, product direction, and architecture decisions**.
*   Rapidly prototype and validate features (AI-based matchmaking, route optimization, demand prediction).
*   **Hire and mentor** the first engineers as the team grows.
*   Establish **engineering culture, best practices, and documentation** from the ground up.

## Requirements

*   **Strong engineering background** with 3+ years of hands-on software development experience (startup or 0→1 experience a big plus).
*   **Proficiency in backend development** (Go, Node.js/TypeScript) and solid understanding of APIs, databases, and distributed systems.
*   **Infrastructure**: cloud deployments (AWS/GCP/Azure), Kubernetes, CI/CD, monitoring, and event-driven systems.
*   **Full-stack mindset** — willing to work across backend, frontend (React/ Expo RN), and data pipelines when needed.
*   **Excited by the idea of using AI, real-time data, and optimization** to reshape logistics and solve one of the biggest efficiency problems in Europe.
*   **Ownership mentality & hardcore work ethic** — you take responsibility, move fast, and push through challenges.
*   **Problem solver** who thrives in ambiguity, takes initiative, and figures things out independently.

## Benefits

*   **Growth** – you’ll define your role and grow into leadership as the company scales.
*   **Beautiful office in the heart of Cologne** (**Innodom**)– designed for focus, creativity, and collaboration.
*   **Compensation & equity stake**
*   **A front-row seat to building a generational company**
*   **High autonomy & fast decision-making** – No bureaucracy, move fast, own outcomes.
*   **0→1 startup environment** – work on hard problems, build things from scratch, and see your impact.
