Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Lead the team that owns OIP’s central surfaces: the Next.js web application, the typed tRPC API, and the Identity & Access Management (IAM) system. You’ll keep a strong hands‑on footprint (around 50%), evolve the platform from MVP to secure, observable, real‑time foundations, and set cross‑team engineering standards that other feature teams build on.
• Own and evolve the core app surfaces: the React web app, the tRPC API, and our real‑time UI and admin consoles. Define platform primitives: IAM (authn/authz), multitenancy, and audit logging as reusable building blocks for all teams. Architect and implement event‑driven services and typed API contracts in TypeScript/Node.js. Write production code ca. 50% of the time on the hardest parts (auth flows, performance fixes, real‑time features). Establish SLOs and observability (traces, metrics, logs) and lead incident response for the Core surfaces. Lead architecture reviews and ADRs, drive technical decision‑making, and set cross‑team standards. Partner with Platform on Kubernetes, CI/CD, and security baselines to ship reliable releases.
• Orcrist is building a next generation data intelligence platform using cutting-edge technologies. We’re handling petabyte-scale data with sub-second queries. Our product (OIP) is a Kubernetes‑based platform delivered as B2B SaaS or as a self‑hosted/on‑prem solution, including air‑gapped deployments.
• You will deepen your expertise in distributed systems, security, and observability while leading technical architecture and mentoring engineers. You’ll shape the foundation of a scalable, secure platform used in high-stakes environments, gaining influence across teams and driving technical excellence in a remote-first, impact‑focused culture.

🎯 Requirements

• 7+ years software engineering with TypeScript/Node.js (full‑stack with React)
• Deep Kubernetes experience operating production workloads
• Led technical teams and major architecture migrations
• Strong mentorship track record
• Solid distributed systems fundamentals and event‑driven patterns (Kafka/NATS or similar)
• Experience with security & compliance: OAuth2/OIDC, RBAC/ABAC/policy, multitenancy, and audit logging
• Experience with observability: OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, SLOs, and error budgets

🏖️ Benefits

• Modern architecture & stack (TypeScript, React, Node.js, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, GCP)
• Remote‑first in Germany with occasional team events in Berlin
• Home office budget and great equipment
• 30 days vacation
• Direct impact on critical missions across private and public‑sector customers
