Product Engineer

ilert GmbH · Cologne

Full-time

About the Role

ilert builds incident management and alerting software used by engineering teams worldwide. We are a bootstrapped and profitable SaaS company. Over 90% of our code is now AI-generated, your job is to direct it, not type it. We are looking for Product Engineers who own their domain end-to-end: propose features, build them, measure their impact, and iterate. Tasks • Own a product domain end-to-end: propose features, build them, measure their impact, iterate • Ship production code daily using AI-native development tools (>90% of our code is AI-generated — your job is to direct it, not type it) • Talk to customers, study usage analytics, and turn insights into product improvements • Work in 2-week "bets" — fast cycles with real production deployments at the end of every sprint Requirements • 3+ years of software engineering experience (backend, frontend, or full-stack) • You've shipped features end-to-end and cared about whether users actually used them • You're comfortable with ambiguity — we'll give you a domain, not a spec • You use AI tools aggressively and see them as leverage, not a crutch • Experience with incident management, DevOps, or on-call tooling is a plus but not required Benefits • Agentic AI Frontier: You'll be at the forefront of the AI-SRE revolution, building real-world Human-AI collaboration patterns. • Real ownership: you decide what to build in your domain, not just how to build it. • Hybrid Freedom: Join us in our gorgeous Rheinauhafen office (3 days a week) with a world-class roof terrace; work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays. • Focus > Meetings: We protect "Maker Time." We minimize syncs and favor asynchronous writing and tools like Loom and Notion. • Direct access to CEO and CTO. We do not need a cover letter. Send us your application with a brief note on what product domain excites you and why, and a link to something you have shipped that you are proud of. If you are the kind of engineer who has opinions about what to build, not just how to build it, we want to talk to you. Find Jobs in Germany (https://www.arbeitnow.com/) on Arbeitnow
