Senior Backend Engineer (m/f/d)

About the role

As a Senior Backend Engineer you will design and develop the core platform for an incident‑automation solution that helps Alpitronic detect charger issues early, trigger automated remediation, and scale autonomous operations across a growing network.

Key responsibilities

• Design and implement backend services for telemetry processing, orchestration, workflow execution, case/ticket integrations and platform APIs.
• Evolve the current tightly‑coupled architecture into a modular, event‑driven, scalable platform.
• Build and maintain reliable integrations with charger telemetry, ticketing systems, service workflows and customer‑facing components.
• Improve workflow reliability, idempotency, retry mechanisms, state management, error handling and auditability.
• Collaborate with product, service, R&D and data engineering teams to translate operational playbooks into maintainable backend capabilities.
• Contribute to technical decisions on rules handling, workflow orchestration, context modeling, observability and scalability.
• Support secure, governed and monitorable AI/agent‑based backend capabilities where appropriate.
• Help define engineering standards, testing strategies, deployment patterns and long‑term architecture.

Required profile

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering or equivalent practical experience.
• Significant production‑grade backend engineering experience.
• Strong systems thinking, architectural judgment and pragmatic problem‑solving.
• Ability to balance speed, maintainability and reliability while communicating clearly with technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Ownership mentality, independent drive and comfort working in ambiguous environments.
• Fluent English; German or Italian is a plus.

Required skills

• C# / .NET
• Design of distributed backend services and cloud‑based APIs
• Event‑driven architectures, message queues and async processing
