PAGNOS | Cloud Engineer, AWS Serverless (TypeScript/Node.js) | REMOTE (Germany) | Full-time | €75k–80k | business-fluent German required. We build serverless applications on AWS for clients and for our own SaaS products. On client projects, we work directly with their developers and help them understand and maintain what we build. You’ll write backend code in TypeScript/Node.js, build APIs with Lambda and API Gateway, model data in DynamoDB, and design event-driven workflows and integrations. Infrastructure lives in code using AWS CDK, with CI/CD pipelines for builds and deployments. You’ll help decide how systems are designed and take testing, observability and security into account as you build. There’s some React/Next.js work too. We’re looking for practical experience building AWS serverless applications with TypeScript/Node.js, including infrastructure as code, CI/CD and event-driven design. The role includes working through requirements and technical decisions with clients, so you should be comfortable with that. We use coding agents daily and expect you to use them too, and to share useful approaches with other developers. AWS serverless development is the main focus of the role. We’re remote-first, use Scrum, and work with code reviews, pair programming, and unit and integration tests. We meet in person regularly, sometimes in Cologne, sometimes in Austria or Mallorca. We plan travel around family commitments. You must be based in Germany and speak business-fluent German and good English. We don’t offer visa sponsorship. €75k–80k, 32 days of vacation, hardware of your choice, and company-paid AI tool subscriptions. Send your CV to [email protected] – no cover letter needed.

Shepherd (Series B) | ONSITE | San Francisco, CA & New York City, NY. At Shepherd, we're pursuing the most ambitious technical vision in commercial insurance: fully autonomous underwriting. Shepherd is an AI-native commercial insurance platform transforming how high-hazard industries get covered. The infrastructure behind the AI boom (data centers, semiconductor fabs, renewable energy assets) has to be built and insured, but traditional carriers weren't built for this speed. We built Shepherd to solve that. We announced our $42M Series B earlier this year! That brings our total funding to over $60M — led by Intact Private Capital, the investment arm of one of the largest insurers in the world. Intact is not only our lead investor but also a carrier partner, a testament to the confidence the incumbent industry has in what we're building. We’re looking for product-minded, high ownership engineers to join our team! The Engineering team is HQ’d in SF, but we’re growing in NYC now too! We’re hiring for 2 Senior Full Stack Software Engineers, 1 Machine Learning Engineer and 1 AI Product Manager in SF, and 2 Staff Full Stack Software Engineers in NYC. Engineers own projects end-to-end so full stack ability is expected. Check out our open roles here: https://shepherdinsurance.com/careers. Our stack includes: Typescript, React, Next.js, GraphQL w/ Apollo, Node.js, Postgres & Redis – If you have experience building AI agents or multi-step reasoning systems, we’d love to hear from you. * In the form, be sure to mention that you heard about this opportunity via Hacker News.
