Join us and help make autonomous operations the new standard.
About the role
BLP’s AI agents are only as good as their data: they need reliable context from our customers’ ERP systems, such as SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, or Oracle, and a safe way to write their results back.
We are forming a new backend platform team, and you will be one of its first engineers. You will start by learning our existing data synchronization platform, keeping it reliable, and gradually taking ownership of it. From there, you will build the backend services and tooling that let BLP connect to any ERP system through configuration instead of custom code.
What you'll do
Shape the platform: work with the engineers and implementation teams who connect our customers’ ERP systems, find where that work is slow or fragile, and turn it into platform improvements.
Build great software: design and build clean, maintainable services in Go, and raise the bar through thoughtful code reviews.
Lead technically: drive technical decisions on key initiatives, influence the product roadmap, and support your teammates as they grow.
Improve how we work: share what you learn openly and keep improving our processes, tools, and team practices.
Tech stack: Go, Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub CI/CD, running on GCP.
What you bring
3+ years as a software engineer, with a degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
Experience with Go, or strong backend experience and the motivation to learn Go quickly
Craftsmanship: a solid grasp of Clean Code and Clean Architecture
Product thinking: you turn business problems into precise requirements, specifications, and ultimately code
Ownership: you take responsibility for your code, the product, and the team
Clear communication: you simplify complex systems and explain them to engineers and business stakeholders alike
Fluent English: you work comfortably in English, in writing and in conversation
Nice to have
Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, GCP and infrastructure as code.
Experience with observability tooling such as OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana or Google Cloud Monitoring.
German.
What you'll get
Real leverage: every improvement you make to the platform speeds up go-lives and stabilizes integrations for hundreds of enterprise customers.
Full ownership: from internal user problem to shipped and operated code.
A modern, varied tech stack and continuous learning as the platform scales.
Fast-tracked growth, with promotions and a bonus scheme that includes company shares.
Regular team events.

Location: Zurich office, hybrid with 3+ office days per week.
