Job Description

Full-time · Austria, Germany, Europe (Hybrid / Remote possible · DACH focus)

About our client

Our client is a fast-growing European AI company on a mission to redefine how enterprises deliver customer support.

They are building a next-generation conversational agent platform that allows large organizations to deploy AI agents capable of truly understanding local language, culture, and context — across voice, chat, and email.


Unlike generic chatbot solutions, their technology integrates seamlessly with complex enterprise systems and operates at the level of real customer service teams — combining speed, empathy, and precision.


Already trusted by leading enterprises in telecom, financial services, and healthcare, and backed by top-tier investors, the company is scaling rapidly across Europe.

You’ll join a high-velocity, product-driven environment where every team member directly impacts how the world’s largest organizations engage with their customers.

The role

We’re looking for an experienced

Technical Leader / Regional CTO

who can bridge architecture, engineering execution, and customer success.

This is a key role for an entrepreneurial, hands-on technologist ready to take ownership of both product delivery and regional technical growth.


You’ll serve as the

technical face of the company in the DACH region

— guiding architecture discussions, leading integrations, and building a small but high-performing engineering group that can deliver complex AI solutions end-to-end.


If you’ve ever wanted to combine the

impact of a CTO

, the

craft of an architect

, and the

drive of a startup builder

, this is that role.

Key responsibilities

Lead the technical side of enterprise integrations and AI deployments — from architecture design to production rollout. Join early-stage sales and pre-sales discussions to assess feasibility, guide technical direction, and deliver solution demos. Build and mentor a local engineering and integration team, setting clear standards for quality and delivery. Drive customer implementations: define technical scope, ensure smooth deployment, and maintain production accuracy. Collaborate closely with Product and AI teams to localize and optimize the platform for regional markets. Represent the company as a technical expert in client meetings, industry events, and strategic partnerships. Continuously improve infrastructure, automation, and performance of large-scale AI systems.

Who you are

German native speaker (or equivalent proficiency)

, with excellent command of English. 8+ years of hands-on software engineering experience (backend, integrations, cloud infrastructure). Proven track record in roles such as

Engineering Lead, Solution Architect, Field CTO, or Head of Engineering

. Solid background in

SaaS and enterprise integrations

(APIs, authentication, data flows, monitoring). Experience leading

customer-facing technical discussions

and managing delivery for enterprise clients. Fluency in

cloud environments (AWS / Azure / GCP)

and modern DevOps practices (CI/CD, IaC, observability). Strong communicator able to bridge technical and business perspectives. Entrepreneurial mindset: autonomous, structured, and execution-focused. Bonus: experience with

AI, NLP, or LLM-based systems

, and working in a fast-paced startup.

Why join

Be part of a fast-growing AI scale-up shaping the future of enterprise automation. Build something real: you’ll design, deploy, and lead — not just advise. Work with an ambitious, collaborative, international team of AI experts, engineers, and entrepreneurs. Competitive package with performance-based upside (salary + stock options). * Hybrid / remote flexibility across Europe.
