• Exposure to state-of-the-art tools like OpenAI APIs, LangChain, GCP Vertex AI, Hugging Face, and vector databases such as FAISS or Weaviate.
• A clear growth path into more senior roles, supported by internal training and external certifications.

Your mindset:

• Bonus: Familiarity with ML libraries (e.g. Hugging Face, LangChain) or DevOps tools (e.g. Docker).
• Languages: Strong English skills; German is a plus.
• Work Eligibility: A valid work permit for Germany.
