About Andercore Andercore is the AI-native supplier of industrial materials for energy, infrastructure, and construction in wholesale and beyond. We trade with global suppliers and distribute to European customers on our own account. Our AI runs the full trade and distribution end-to-end: sourcing, quality, pricing, sales, logistics, and embedded financing. For the customer, it feels like buying from their preferred local supplier; for our partners, it is the most convenient and safe way to do business across borders. Behind it, our software and agentic AI do the heavy lifting that used to take an asset intensive supply chain with four or five intermediaries and weeks of manual coordination. Where we are today: Strong triple digit million euro turnover Seven European markets live 80+ people across Berlin (HQ), offices in London, Mumbai, and Shanghai $40M Series B just closed, $75M raised to date from Atomico, Project A, and Inven Capital, institutional financing from international banks. We are building the world's first and last industrial grade AI operating system for materials, redefining how global trade works in one of the largest and most essential industries on earth. As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will be a technical anchor across the team - expected to lead by example, shape architecture decisions, and raise the quality bar for everything we ship. You will operate with a high degree of autonomy while staying deeply embedded in collaborative engineering culture. Tech Stack: Java 21 (Spring Boot 3), Python, LangGraph, LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini), PostgreSQL, Kinesis, AWS, Terraform, GitHub Actions, Node.js, TypeScript, Next.js, React. What you will do Take ownership of complex backend systems from design through production - including architecture, implementation, and long term maintenance. Lead technical discussions, drive engineering decisions, and document trade offs clearly for the team. Mentor junior and mid level engineers through code reviews, pairing sessions, and structured feedback. Identify systemic weaknesses in our infrastructure, propose improvements, and execute on them with minimal direction. Collaborate across engineering, product, and data to align technical direction with business goals. Drive improvements to observability, reliability, and performance across our backend stack. Contribute to hiring by participating in technical interviews and helping define the engineering bar. Who you are 7+ years of backend engineering experience, with a track record of owning critical systems in production. Deep expertise in Java (Spring Boot) and strong familiarity with Python; comfortable navigating a polyglot codebase. Proven experience designing distributed systems - event driven architecture, microservices, data pipelines. Strong command of PostgreSQL and experience working with cloud native infrastructure on AWS. Someone who has been through hypergrowth or scale challenges and has the scars and instincts to show for it. A multiplier: you make the engineers around you better through your presence, feedback, and technical clarity. Comfortable operating in ambiguity - you can shape requirements, not just execute on them. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome applicants from all backgrounds, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, or any other characteristic. We believe that diversity drives innovation, creativity, and collective strength.

The role: Joining our Cloud Platform team as a Lead DevEx Engineer, you will play a key role in improving how engineers build, ship and operate services across the company. This brand new role is created to bridge the gap between application development and platform engineering, creating a more consistent, scalable developer experience as we continue to evolve our platform strategy. You will focus on building for engineers - creating and shaping the templates, standards and foundations used across services. Alongside this, you will have the opportunity to contribute to emerging platform initiatives, including work that supports AI enablement across the engineering organisation. This is a high impact role with real scope to influence how engineering works at the company. What you'll get to do in the role: Own and evolve the service template library for .NET, Node.js and Python - covering project scaffolding, dependency management, containerisation, local development setup and production configuration. Build and maintain CI/CD pipeline templates in GitHub Actions and/or Azure DevOps, covering build, test, security scanning and deployment - consistent across stacks and reusable across teams. Define and ship observability standards: structured logging, distributed tracing and alerting integrated into service templates so every new service is production ready from day one. Work hands on with Datadog, incident.io and/or GCP/Azure native logging and monitoring tooling to build the platform level observability layer teams plug into. Contribute to our thinking on a potential Azure to GCP migration - helping assess changes for developer tooling and service templates and building proof of concept work that informs the decision. Partner with product engineers to understand where developer experience breaks down - slow pipelines, confusing templates, missing runbooks - and fix the root causes, not the symptoms. Lead technical decisions on platform tooling: evaluate new tools, write ADRs, and drive adoption of improvements across multiple engineering teams. Mentor engineers in the Cloud Platform team and act as a go to resource for product engineers getting to grips with platform tooling. What we think you'll need: Proficient in at least one of .NET (C#), Node.js or Python - able to build, configure and template production grade services in each. Strong GCP experience (Azure experience is a nice to have). Hands on experience designing reusable CI/CD pipeline templates - GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps - consistent across stacks and teams. Comfortable with containerisation (Docker) and deployment on Kubernetes or Cloud Run. Observability experience with at least one of Datadog, incident.io or cloud native logging and monitoring (GCP Cloud Operations or Azure Monitor). Infrastructure as code with Terraform. A proven track record of driving adoption - building things engineers use, writing docs that get read. The interview process: Screening call with Chess (Internal Recruiter) (30 min) Video interview with the Hiring Manager (45 min) In person code pairing interview with a member of Engineering team (1 hour) Video interview with the wider company team (1 hour)
