Senior AI Engineer (f/m/d)

<br><strong>We're digitizing the construction industry – are you in?</strong><p>At VESTIGAS, you build the digital backbone of the construction supply chain. We turn purchase orders, delivery notes, and invoices into a digital, legally compliant platform used in everyday operations by construction companies and suppliers. You’ll work on a product with real market traction in the DACH mid-market, ship iteratively, and take ownership of solutions that must work in the field—not just in theory.</p><br><strong>Your Role</strong><p>You'll help build the AI infrastructure and capabilities that power our supply chain platform, working across the full lifecycle – from pipeline design to production deployment. With 5+ years of experience under your belt, you're ready for the next step in your career. Maybe you've already mentored or technically guided colleagues, and you're looking to grow steadily into a Team Lead role as you take on more ownership and, over time, people responsibility.<br><br><span style="font-size:18px;">The Technical Challenge</span>You'll work on problems like extracting structured data reliably from many different documents, building uncertainty estimation so the system knows when to flag a document for human review instead of silently guessing, and automatically reconciling purchase orders, delivery notes, and invoices against each other – all within legal and compliance requirements that leave no room for "close enough." This is a domain where clean benchmark metrics mean far less than robustness against real documents you've never seen before, and where every accuracy gain has a direct, visible impact on our customers' daily operations.</p><br><strong>Your Mission</strong><p><ul><li>Lead MLOps processes and maintain infrastructure to keep our AI systems reliable, scalable, and secure</li><li>Design and implement advanced AI features, working closely with engineering and product teams to deploy machine learning models and data pipelines</li><li>Improve the accuracy, efficiency, and uncertainty estimation of existing AI features through rigorous testing</li><li>Contribute to the scalability, maintainability, and core functionality of our AI solutions – and help build new ones from scratch</li><li>Align your technical work with customer needs and support product and sales discussions</li><li>Help establish engineering standards, tooling, and quality practices</li><li>Mentor and technically guide colleagues as you build the track record to grow into a leadership role</li><li>Use modern AI tools such as Claude or Cursor as part of your daily workflow</li></ul></p><br><strong>Your Profile</strong><p><ul><li>Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field; alternatively, an equivalent education</li><li>5+ years of experience in AI engineering, including end-to-end lifecycle management and MLOps</li><li>Hands-on expertise in natural language processing and image processing</li><li>Strong Python skills and experience with Azure; Terraform experience is a plus</li><li>A passion for generative AI, OCR, and building customer-focused solutions</li><li>A habit of writing clean, well-tested code with an eye on what happens after deployment</li><li>Solid understanding of AI agents, tools, and their limitations</li><li>Ideally, some experience mentoring or technically guiding others – and the ambition to grow into a Team Lead role</li><li>Fluent English and German (C1 or above)</li><li>Willingness to work from our Munich office at least two days a week</li></ul></p><br><strong>Your Benefits</strong><p><ul><li>Real ownership instead of micromanagement.
