The people we are looking for.

Junior · full or part time · hybrid, Berlin · English or German.

You build the systems clients depend on: retrieval over their own documents, the workflow around the model, the interface a non-technical person uses, and the logs that make the whole thing auditable. Roughly Python and TypeScript, in someone else’s cloud tenancy, under review.

What we look for: code you have actually shipped somewhere a real person used it; enough of the web to put an interface on your own work; and the habit of checking an output before believing it. A first job is fine. A degree is not required, and neither is a year of LLM experience — the tooling is eighteen months old.

What you get: your work read line by line by a senior engineer, production systems rather than exercises, and an explicit path from junior to owning a client system end to end.

Part time or freelance · hybrid, Berlin · English and German.

You turn the work into things people can read and watch: case write-ups, short video, posts, the explanatory pages this site is made of, and the visual material around them. The subject matter is real projects — you will not be asked to invent thought leadership.

What we look for: writing that sounds like a person rather than a model; fluency with the generative tools for image, video and voice; and the judgement to notice when the machine-made version is the worse one. A portfolio counts for more than a CV.

What you get: material that is genuinely yours to shape, a say in what gets published, and the rare position of writing about AI from inside the systems rather than from the outside.

Werkstudent:in · 15–20 hours a week · hybrid, Berlin · German at native level.

You work alongside the law-firm and governance projects: reading what §43e BRAO, §203 StGB, the DSGVO and the EU AI Act actually require; checking a workflow we have designed against them; and writing the plain-language version a client can hand to their own data protection officer.

What we look for: a law student past the first years, precision about the difference between what a norm says and what everyone assumes it says, and the willingness to say “this does not work” about something already half built.

What you get: none of this is legal advice and you sign nothing — your role is to tell us, early, when a design will not survive contact with the rules. You will see how the constraints get built into a system instead of bolted on afterwards.

Werkstudent:in · 15–20 hours a week · hybrid, Berlin · German or English.

You bring how a practice actually runs: the drawing register that is really three registers, quotes from ten trades in ten formats, the site Protokoll that has to go out the same evening it was written. You test what we build against the way the work is genuinely done, not the way a process diagram says it is.

What we look for: architecture, civil engineering or construction management study; time spent in a practice or on a site; and an eye for the step everyone quietly does by hand and never mentions.

What you get: your discipline treated as the expertise it is. The architecture system on our work page exists because someone explained the register problem properly.

Werkstudent:in · 10–20 hours a week · hybrid, Berlin · English or German.

You make the pictures: client environments and people, the studio’s own material, process and product shots, and the reference images that generated work is built from. Part of the job is a camera and part of it is a model, and knowing which the moment calls for is most of the skill.

What we look for: your own portfolio; light you control rather than light you found; competent retouching; and comfort photographing real workplaces where nothing is styled and nobody has time for you.

What you get: subjects you cannot shoot on your own — working offices, sites, labs, practices — and credit on the published work.

Werkstudent:in · 15–20 hours a week · hybrid, Berlin · English or German.

You work on the physical side: sensors, microcontrollers, a small board that has to sit in a workshop or a field and keep reporting for a year without anyone visiting it. Real hardware drifts — a clock runs slow, a sensor reads off, a driver runs a few percent fast — so calibration is part of what you deliver, not an afterthought.

What we look for: electrical engineering, mechatronics or embedded study; C, C++ or MicroPython on a microcontroller; a multimeter and a soldering iron you own and use; and the patience to find out why it works on the bench and not on site.

What you get: your own bench, the parts budget for it, and hardware that leaves the building and stays out there.

Werkstudent:in · 15–20 hours a week · hybrid, Berlin, with field visits · German.

You bring the field: what a farm, a co-operative or an agricultural supplier measures, decides, files and is inspected on, and where a machine could carry part of that load. We would far rather learn this from someone who has stood in the field at six in the morning than from a market report.

What we look for: agricultural science, agronomy, agricultural engineering or a farming background; German; and a driving licence, because some of this is not a desk.

What you get: a sector we are deliberately learning rather than claiming to know, and the chance to decide what the first system in it should be.
