About the opportunity

Do you live for solving complex problems and delivering top-notch software? Daedalus has the right challenge for you! We're looking for a Python Full-Stack Engineer who's keen about delivering our innovative software stack for real-time management of complex industrial processes that sets the bar for the industry.

What you'll do at Daedalus

Build and ship the tech stack behind our factory of the future, including production scheduling, workflow orchestration, and real-time machine integration.
Own features end-to-end — focus on backend (Python/Django) or frontend (React/TypeScript), but collaborate across the stack as needed.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate software solutions into a complex industrial domain.
Ensure scalability, performance, and security of our software systems.
Work with the product team to develop user stories and identify the highest-impact opportunities.

Who you are

5+ years of hands-on experience building and maintaining modern web applications across the stack.
Proven experience shipping real software products in complex enterprise or SaaS environments.
Strong technical and delivery mindset — able to make decisions balancing speed, quality, and maintainability.
Thrive in collaborative environments and contribute actively to team discussions. Mentor less-experienced engineers where appropriate.
Eager to develop generalist skills while deepening expertise in frontend and backend technologies.
Proficient or highly experienced in modern tech stacks. At Daedalus, we use: Python, Django, React, TypeScript, Docker, Kubernetes, Bazel. Exact prior experience with all tools is not required — we value fast learners who pick the right tool for the task.

What's in it for you

Work with purpose and ambition in one of the most exciting and innovative manufacturing facilities in Germany
Close collaboration with an international team from the fields of manufacturing, artificial intelligence, software, robotics, and operations
Free lunch, fruits, and drinks every day
30 days of vacation
Capital-forming benefits
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
Bike leasing via BusinessBike
Regular team events (e.g. summer party, barbecue evenings, Christmas party, etc.)
