.img – itai’s machine GmbH is a digital technology company specializing in modern publishing solutions. With our “journalistic operating system” (.jOS), we offer a cloud-native publishing platform that serves millions of users by connecting to headless CMS systems, processing and enriching content, and distributing it via web and mobile applications. Our clients include national and regional media companies as well as businesses from other industries that rely on a scalable and high-performance infrastructure for digital publishing.

We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer (m/f/d) to join our team as soon as possible.

Tasks

Design, develop, and maintain backend services and APIs for our content platform using Python, and FastAPI

Build reliable pipelines that transform raw and heterogeneous data into structured, production-ready content

Develop and integrate production-grade LLM workflows, including prompting, structured outputs, embeddings, similarity search, and evaluation

Build resilient integrations with third-party APIs, REST services, and webhooks

Design and maintain asynchronous processing workflows using queues, and Redis

Contribute to our TypeScript services where needed

Contribute to architecture, code quality, technical standards, and continuous improvement of our backend stack

Requirements

6+ years of professional backend engineering experience

Strong Python expertise, including FastAPI and pydantic

Working knowledge of TypeScript — enough to read, debug, and contribute to our TypeScript services

Experience with AI automation — building systems that integrate, govern, or orchestrate LLM-driven workflows, not just calling an API

Experience with Redis and message queue based asynchronous processing

Strong testing discipline (pytest) and track record of owning features end-to-end, from architecture through delivery

Nice-to-have

TypeScript/Node.js experience, e.g. with frameworks such as NestJS

AWS or other cloud infrastructure experience

Experience with data pipelines handling heterogeneous/unstructured input

Familiarity with vector search / embedding stores

Prior experience integrating with third-party content or media APIs

Benefits

Creative Freedom and Responsibility: You’ll have genuine freedom to actively help shape and further develop our digital products, workflows, and formats

Meaningful Work: The opportunity to contribute to a challenging environment

Secure Future: Permanent employment with a trust-based work schedule and a high degree of personal responsibility

Work in the heart of Berlin: A modern office right on Alexanderplatz with an impressive view of the city and excellent public transportation connections

Appreciative corporate culture: An open, collegial atmosphere where individual perspectives matter and teamwork is a way of life

Personal and professional growth: Opportunities for growth and the chance to take on more responsibility and develop new skills

We look forward to receiving your application!
