Are you passionate about building cloud-native Python services that power real-time industrial intelligence?

At Orderfox, you’ll design, build, and scale the core services, data APIs, and deployment pipelines that keep manufacturing insights flowing. You’ll ship production-grade Python, make pragmatic architecture calls, and pair-program with AI copilots to move faster and smarter.

What You Can Expect in This Role

• Develop cloud-native services– FastAPI/async back ends, gRPC & REST APIs, event-driven workers
• Shape service design– keep modules clean, write ADRs, profile performance
• Integrate with the data platform – partner with the data team on ingestion, semantic search & feature APIs
• Automate delivery – create CI/CD with GitHub Actions, Docker, Helm & Terraform; deploy on AKS
• Champion observability & quality – structured logging, metrics, tracing, PyTest, Great Expectations
• Leverage AI pair programming – daily Copilot / Cursor / Claude usage, prompt craft, safety checks
• Collaborate - report directly to the CTO and work closely with the Lead Data Architect

What Helps You Get Started

• 5+ years of professional Python 3.x (asyncio, type hints, Pydantic, PyTest)
• Hands-on experience with Azure (Functions, Container Apps/AKS, Cosmos DB, Event Hubs, Managed Postgres)
• Familiarity with microservices, event sourcing, CQRS & caching
• SQL & NoSQL mastery – Postgres, Redis, vector/graph/document stores; query optimisation
• Streaming & messaging – Kafka/Pulsar and Azure Service Bus or Event Hubs
• CI/CD & DevOps – GitHub, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform/BicepAI-augmented development – practical Copilot, Cursor, or Claude usage; can demonstrate productivity gains & governance

Why You’ll Enjoy Working at Orderfox

• Meaningful mission – build industrial-grade AI that solve real-world problems
• Innovative tech – work hands-on with LLMs, RAG pipelines, pgvector, Cosmos DB Graph, Azure Synapse.
• Real ownership – collaborate directly with the CTO; your ideas shape the roadmap
• Supportive culture – 30-person team valuing initiative, transparency & fast decisions
• Flat hierarchy – your voice reaches the CTO every day
• ​​Flexible remote setup – 42-hour week with async-friendly hours (CET ± 2 h)
• Personal growth – structured onboarding and clear career paths

How We’ll Work Together

• Direct employment – if you’re in Switzerland, or an EU/EFTA citizen ready to relocate, we can hire you full-time
• Independent contracting – if you’re already self-employed in Switzerland or abroad, we can team up on a freelance contract
• Employer of record (EoR) – when neither option fits, we partner with a trusted EoR to hire you locally and handle compliance.

Because we work on Central European Time, you’ll need to be within ± 2 hours (UTC 0 – UTC +3) to keep collaboration live and productive. Occasional office drop-ins are very welcome.

How We’ll Get to Know Each Other

A focused, four-step journey designed to be transparent and respectful of your time – typically wrapped within two weeks:

1. Introductory chat
2. System-design deep dive
3. Hands-on AI-assisted coding session
4. Culture & product alignment
