Our mission: we turn energy-efficient retrofits for multi-family residential buildings into predictable, lucrative investment opportunities. When it comes to modernisations, the real estate market is often a black box of rough estimates and fragmented processes. We are changing that. Through our integrated platform and streamlined workflow, we transform 'brown assets' into future-proof, high-yield properties. About the Role Department: Prod & Tech Functional Home: Automation Reports to: CPO / Head of Product & Technology or designated Engineering Lead Location: Berlin, office-first Seniority: Senior We are looking for a Senior Software Automation Engineer specializing in low-code automation to help us turn manual, repetitive, and fragmented workflows into scalable automated systems.You will belong to the Automation Team, but your work will be embedded across cross-functional squads. You will collaborate with Product, AI, Software Engineering, and business stakeholders to identify opportunities and rapidly build automation solutions. This is not simply a workflow-builder role. We are looking for someone who combines software engineering thinking with low-code execution - someone who can understand complex processes, design robust automations, integrate systems, and know when a low-code solution is appropriate versus when custom engineering is required. Key Responsibilities Automation Architecture • Design end-to-end business and product automation workflows. • Identify opportunities to eliminate repetitive manual processes. • Build reliable, maintainable, and observable automation systems. • Design integrations between SaaS platforms, APIs, databases, AI services, and internal applications. • Establish reusable automation patterns and components.

AI + Automation • Combine AI capabilities with workflow automation. • Build intelligent workflows using LLMs, classification, extraction, enrichment, routing, and decision logic. • Identify opportunities to use AI where deterministic automation alone is insufficient. • Partner with AI Engineers to integrate AI capabilities into operational workflows. Cross-Functional Squad Execution • Work as an automation specialist inside product squads. • Translate business and product requirements into automated workflows. • Collaborate with Product Managers and Engineers to determine the simplest reliable implementation. • Own automation initiatives from discovery through deployment and optimization. • Act as a technical advisor on automation feasibility and architecture. Engineering Quality • Implement robust error handling, retries, logging, monitoring, and alerting. • Document workflows and integrations. • Establish testing and deployment practices for automation. • Monitor automation performance and continuously optimize workflows. • Identify technical debt and migrate fragile workflows to more scalable solutions when required.
