Software Engineer
Berlin / Remote
As a Software Engineer at Phantasma, you'll help build, run and improve AiPS, our AI-powered production scheduling software, and bring it into real production environments. You'll work across backend development, customer integrations, infrastructure and frontend features, with real ownership from day one.
Tasks
- Develop production-ready backend code in Rust
- Develop unit tests and integration tests to keep quality high as we ship fast
- Debug and resolve issues in staging and production
- Interface with customer systems (ERP/MES and surrounding tools)
- Convert and map structured and semi-structured customer data into our internal formats
- Join customer calls, gather requirements, and translate them into robust implementations
- Contribute to API design and overall system architecture
- Build and maintain frontend features in React/Typescript
- Deploy and operate services on Kubernetes cloud infrastructure
- Support MLOps workflows in partnership with the ML team
You'll be part of our backend team and contribute directly to delivering and maintaining our software in real factory environments: turning customer requirements into production-ready features, shipping reliably, and keeping systems stable across staging and production. It's a hands-on role, and your ideas will be heard and implemented if they improve the product.
