What this job asks for AI summary
A Berlin-based AI startup is hiring a generalist engineer to build an AI-native platform that helps teams turn unstructured data and disconnected systems into actionable decisions. The role spans the full stack — UI, backend, databases, APIs, and AI workflows involving LLMs, agents, and retrieval — with end-to-end ownership from problem discovery through production. It suits an experienced, self-directed builder comfortable working without detailed specs in an early-stage environment.

Why we read it this way (8)
The posting is for a Berlin-based startup; the primary work location is outside the United States. The US-based flag is set to false accordingly, though the caller has instructed remote=true and a national (US) candidate pool.
No experience floor is stated in years — the JD gates on a demonstrated shipping track record rather than a minimum year count.
No compensation figures are disclosed.
The title 'AI-Native Product Engineer' carries no seniority level word. The scope (end-to-end ownership, early-stage startup, no detailed specs) is consistent with a Mid-level generalist builder rather than a Senior specialist — the JD emphasises breadth and self-direction over deep technical leadership or cross-team authority.
AI workflow capabilities (agents, retrieval, structured extraction, tool use) are framed as required knowledge under 'What we are looking for — AI Product Knowledge', captured via the LLMs skill. No specific AI framework (e.g. LangChain, LlamaIndex) is named.
REST/APIs appear in the requirements section as 'experience with APIs' alongside data models, permissions, and background jobs — captured as REST representing the broader API integration requirement.
Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
This role's work location reads as outside the US — the candidate pool, comp, and contention benchmarks here are US-only (BLS employment, Adzuna/USAJOBS demand, and certified H-1B wages), so treat them as a rough US reference, not a local market.
