Über diesen Job

Intro

At Maxmove, we're building a full-stack AI logistics platform that transforms the way goods move. We are creating the operating system for logistics — a digital infrastructure that makes transporting goods as seamless and connected as the internet. Starting in Germany, we are laying the foundation for smarter and more efficient logistics.

If you enjoy 0→1 building, are a great engineer, and want to have real impact in shaping a generational company, you should join us.

Tasks

As Founding Engineer, you’ll play a key role in building Maxmove.

  • Own core product development: design and implement backend services, APIs, and architecture for Maxmove’s logistics platform.
  • Manage infrastructure: databases, event bus, cloud deployments, monitoring, and CI/CD.
  • Collaborate on technical roadmap, product direction, and architecture decisions.
  • Rapidly prototype and validate features (AI-based matchmaking, route optimization, demand prediction).
  • Hire and mentor the first engineers as the team grows.
  • Establish engineering culture, best practices, and documentation from the ground up.

Requirements

  • Strong engineering background with 3+ years of hands-on software development experience (startup or 0→1 experience a big plus).
  • Proficiency in backend development (Go, Node.js/TypeScript) and solid understanding of APIs, databases, and distributed systems.
  • Infrastructure: cloud deployments (AWS/GCP/Azure), Kubernetes, CI/CD, monitoring, and event-driven systems.
  • Full-stack mindset — willing to work across backend, frontend (React/ Expo RN), and data pipelines when needed.
  • Excited by the idea of using AI, real-time data, and optimization to reshape logistics and solve one of the biggest efficiency problems in Europe.
  • Ownership mentality & hardcore work ethic — you take responsibility, move fast, and push through challenges.
  • Problem solver who thrives in ambiguity, takes initiative, and figures things out independently.

Benefits

  • Growth – you’ll define your role and grow into leadership as the company scales.
  • Beautiful office in the heart of Cologne (Innodom)– designed for focus, creativity, and collaboration.
  • Compensation & equity stake
  • A front-row seat to building a generational company
  • High autonomy & fast decision-making – No bureaucracy, move fast, own outcomes.
  • 0→1 startup environment – work on hard problems, build things from scratch, and see your impact.

Closing

If you're a great software engineer and want to have a real impact. Join us at Maxmove.
