Full-time · Karlsruhe · German or English
You bring AI to the construction site — not to the slide deck.

Frequently asked questions
Which technologies do you use?
Java at the core, apps for iOS and Android, plus our own models for image recognition and progress detection. We'll go into detail in the interview.
Do I have to speak German?
No. In development we also work in English — only roles with customer contact require good German.
How much remote work is possible?
Around 50%. We work flexibly in terms of time and place, but we don't give up shared days at the office in Karlsruhe.
Will I also work on the hardware?
There are touchpoints — the data from our helmet cameras, webcams, and drones ends up in the same services. Device manufacturing itself is based in Baden-Baden.
