## Job description

### ABOUT THE ROLE

This is a core backend engineering role at a small, high-caliber founding team building AI-native operations infrastructure for private markets. You'll own the systems that power fund accounting, reporting, reconciliation, and treasury automation — with a deep focus on permissions, auditability, traceability, and observability across both hosted and self-hosted deployments.

### WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Manage and evolve backend infrastructure with a strong emphasis on permissions, auditability, traceability, and observability.

- Oversee deployment architectures for both hosted and self-hosted environments using infrastructure-as-code tooling.

- Enhance system reliability, performance, and security across production environments.

- Partner closely with product teams to ship features while maintaining high quality standards.

- Drive AI-native development practices that enable rapid, high-quality releases.

### WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- 1–6 years of backend development experience.

- Proficiency in TypeScript and NestJS for building production-grade backend services.

- Hands-on experience with PostgreSQL and Prisma in production environments.

- Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or Pulumi to manage deployments.

- Comfort working in a fast-moving, early-stage environment with a high degree of ownership.

### COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

- Salary: €70,000 – €110,000 per year

- Visa sponsorship: Available

### LOCATION

On-site in Berlin, Germany.

**Live in Clera’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
