Berlin Mitte · Hybrid (2 days/week remote) · €60,000–75,000 + VSOP equity Help us decarbonize cement and concrete - not tomorrow, today. alcemy is on a mission to keep 100 million tons of CO₂ out of the atmosphere every year by 2030. Making concrete accounts for around 8% of global CO₂ emissions, and our machine-learning software runs inside cement and concrete plants 24/7 to cut it - without sacrificing quality or driving up costs. We're already live in a third of Germany's cement plants and 30+ ready-mix concrete plants. The role As our Full Stack Data Engineer, you'll own the data that powers everything we do - the flow of cement and concrete plant data from raw, messy ingestion through cleaning, to the pipelines our machine-learning recommendations run on. The split is roughly 50% data engineering, 50% backend, and it's refreshingly hands-on with customers: you'll dig into real-world data, explain what you find to non-technical people, and make getting data into alcemy dramatically easier. What you'll do Build and own the pipelines that ingest and clean messy plant data into something our ML can use Help us move from strict, structured data requirements toward flexible, AI-powered ingestion - so customers onboard with far less friction Track down data anomalies and explain your findings to customers in plain language Build and maintain the APIs and PostgreSQL databases behind our products, and keep production running smoothly Work shoulder to shoulder with customers, sales, and customer success - translating between the technical and the non-technical Requirements You'll thrive here if... Above all, you care about climate change and want your work to count. Must-haves You've deployed production-grade Python applications You love getting to grips with an unfamiliar codebase quickly, and you're eager to start delivering work that matters from the start You're comfortable working directly with customers, sales, and customer success - patient, plain-spoken, and at ease with non-technical enterprise teams You're open to using AI tools to augment how you work Nice-to-haves Experience with Flask or Django and Fast API PostgreSQL or similar SQL databases Some exposure to machine learning Don't tick every box? We'd still love to hear from you. How we work No lone warriors - you'll work collaboratively alongside senior and junior engineers, owning features end to end: build, test, review, deploy. Small team, direct customer exposure, fast startup pace - so async communication, sharp prioritisation, transparency, and direct feedback are the norm, and how we work is something we shape together, and keep improving. We use Claude Code responsibly - AI to move fast, engineers always in charge and accountable, no AI-slop merge requests.
