About the Role

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer with an Agentic mindset — someone who doesn't just write code, but builds systems that think, act, and adapt. You'll work on a production AdTech platform with real business impact, and you'll increasingly work alongside AI agents and design agentic workflows as part of your daily engineering practice.

This is not a ticket-execution role. We expect you to bring judgment, ask the hard questions, design thoughtfully, and genuinely care about the quality of what you ship — whether that code was written by you, assisted by AI, or executed autonomously by an agent you designed.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain robust, scalable backend services following Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles.

  • Take full technical ownership of features — from design through deployment and monitoring.

  • Build and orchestrate agentic workflows: autonomous pipelines where AI models (Claude, LLMs) take actions, call tools, and solve tasks with minimal human intervention.

  • Actively participate in architecture decisions with strong analytical thinking and technical depth.

  • Ensure code quality through SDD, TDD, and BDD methodologies, with sharp attention to detail.

  • Collaborate on code reviews, refinements, and technical planning.

  • Proactively identify and address technical debt, performance bottlenecks, and security risks (OWASP, SOLID).

  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines across Bitbucket, GitLab, or GitHub.

  • Produce well-reasoned technical designs before writing the first line of code.

Tech Stack

Languages

  • PHP (required) · JavaScript / Node.js · Python

  • Rust (nice to have)

Frameworks & Tools

  • Laravel · Pest · Tailwind CSS

  • AWS: Lambda, SAM Templates, S3, CloudFront

  • Terraform · Playwright · Robot Framework · Cypress

  • Grafana · k6 · Postman

Agentic & AI Tooling

  • Claude (Anthropic) · Kiro

  • Experience building or working with LLM-powered agents, tool use, MCP integrations, or prompt engineering at an engineering level

Platform & Collaboration

  • Bitbucket · Jira / Atlassian suite

AdTech (nice to have)

  • Google Ad Manager (GAM)

  • Prebid.js · Prebid Server

Methodologies & Principles

  • SDD (Spec-Driven Development) · TDD · BDD

  • SOLID · DDD · OWASP

  • CI/CD pipelines (Bitbucket Pipelines, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions)

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of experience in backend or full-stack software development.

  • Practical experience with agentic AI systems — building agents, designing tool use, working with LLM APIs, or automating complex workflows with AI.

  • Strong technical analysis and design skills: you can break down complex problems, propose well-reasoned solutions, and think through the implications of architectural decisions.

  • Critical thinking: you don't execute blindly. You question, challenge, and improve — including the outputs of AI tools.

  • Attention to detail: the code you ship is clean, tested, and documented. You apply the same standard to AI-generated code.

  • True ownership: you're accountable for what you build — in production, over time.

  • Autonomy: you know how to move forward without hand-holding, and when to raise a flag.

  • Proactive attitude: you surface improvements, catch problems before they become incidents, and share knowledge freely.

  • Eagerness to learn: the agentic era is moving fast, and you're moving with it.

  • Fluent professional English, written and spoken. The team is fully remote and multicultural.

What We Offer

  • Full remote — work from anywhere within the European timezone (CET ±2h).

  • Small, technical team with minimal overhead.

  • Direct impact: your decisions ship to production.

  • A culture of honest feedback and continuous improvement.

  • Modern tooling — including cutting-edge AI — and freedom to propose new approaches.

  • A front-row seat to the agentic engineering shift, not just as a user but as a builder.

If this sounds like you and you want to build something that matters, we'd love to hear from you.
