Demonstrable experience taking at least one agentic or GenAI system from prototype into production within a sensitive or regulated environment, including responsibility for its operation. We will ask you to walk us through what you built, who relied on it, the hardest constraint you designed around, and what you would approach differently today.
Strong pro-code engineering foundations, with proven proficiency in Python for AI and agent development, complemented by production software experience in at least one of C#/.NET or TypeScript. You write code regularly and intend to keep doing so.
Hands-on depth in Microsoft AI Foundry and Azure AI services — retrieval-augmented generation, orchestration, evaluation, and agent design patterns.
Familiarity with Microsoft Fabric and the Power Platform (including Copilot Studio) is an advantage.
A first-principles approach to security, data boundaries, and architectural trade-offs, and the confidence to advise a business team against a given approach when circumstances require it.
A track record of improving the engineers and standards around you — through mentoring, technical leadership, or setting team-wide practice — not solely through individual delivery.
The ability to learn quickly in a rapidly evolving technology landscape. We are recruiting for your learning ability and judgement, not for a fixed list of certifications.
Fluency in English is required; German is a strong advantage given close collaboration with business stakeholders.
Top Zurich location with collaboration spaces and free lunch.
Friendly, diverse team in an open-office space.
All the latest technology to help you excel and advance.
Agile environment in how we think, the way we work and our trust for each other.
Flat hierarchy with collaboration on all levels.
Campus feeling and collaborative spirit.
