Backend Developer - Microservices & AI Integration (all genders)
YOUR ROLE
br.AI.n stands for AI at the core of the company – and thus also for diverse development opportunities for all br.AI.ners. We grow together and learn from each other: in challenging projects, interdisciplinary teams, and with targeted training offers. We have semantic AI at our heart and our customers' success in focus. As drivers of the Agentic Enterprise, we combine courage for change with technological depth and future-proof solutions. What makes us strong are our br.AI.ners who want to make a difference and simply do it. This action is fueled by our culture, which is based on openness, taking responsibility, and shared successes.
- Build & further develop the platform Backend: You develop scalable, maintainable microservices for br.AI.n and SemReasoner — with Java & Spring Boot as the technical foundation and a clear focus on architectural quality.
- Realize Agentic Integrations: You integrate external services and protocols into our platform — including MCP servers, LLM-APIs and third-party systems — thereby specifically expanding the capabilities of our agent architecture.
- Understand & expand Semantic Backend: You work closely with the SemReasoner core — ontologies, knowledge graphs, and semantic reasoning are not buzzwords for you, but building blocks that you transform into production-ready services.
- Take responsibility for CI/CD & Deployments: You build and maintain robust deployment pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions or similar) and ensure that new features go into production quickly, safely, and reproducibly.
- Operate Cloud & Containers: You deploy our services in Kubernetes and cloud environments (AWS, Azure or GCP) — with the aim of not just being runnable, but operationally sound.
- Tackle MLOps: You integrate AI workflows into our production infrastructure — from model deployment to the automation of training and inference pipelines (e.g., with Kubeflow, MLflow, or Argo Workflows).
- Drive Proof-of-Concepts: You test new ideas early, pragmatically, and with a clear validation goal — and know when a PoC is production-ready and when it is not.
YOUR PROFILE
- Solid Backend craftsmanship: Several years of experience in Java and Spring Boot, microservice architectures, and the design of scalable, loosely coupled systems — you know what holds up in production and what doesn't.
- Agentic AI Understanding: You think AI-native — you understand how LLMs, agents, and semantic reasoning work together, and can incorporate this understanding into Backend architectural decisions.
- DevOps Competence: CI/CD is not an add-on for you, but standard. You build pipelines that make the team faster — not slower.
- Cloud & Kubernetes: You have already operated services in cloud environments and know how to orchestrate container workloads cleanly. Vendor preference is not a must — experience is.
- Analytical Depth: You love to delve into complex problems — and find solutions that not only work, but are also understandable in six months.
- Team Orientation & Communication: You work openly, share knowledge proactively, and contribute constructively to architectural discussions — even when it gets uncomfortable.
- MLOps Affinity (Plus point): If you have already worked with Kubeflow, MLflow, or similar tools, even better — if not, you bring the curiosity and willingness to learn to quickly get up to speed.
