Location: Austria (Remote, but candidate has to be located in Austria with Full Working Rights)

Team: Engineering

SluiceboxAI is building scalable, automation-driven sustainability intelligence for manufacturers. Our platform helps companies navigate compliance, reduce emissions, and drive transparency with automated Life Cycle Assessments (LCA). We’re a fast-moving startup where engineers play a central role in defining solutions, not just building features.

The Role

We’re looking for a strong back-end engineer who can work across the stack to build scalable, high-impact features. The ideal candidate is not just technical but has a product mindset, curiosity, and the ability to navigate ambiguity. This is an opportunity to own solutions end-to-end, collaborate with product and customers, and help shape how we solve complex industry problems.

What You’ll Do

• Own and build scalable back-end solutions (APIs, databases, automation pipelines).
• Work across the stack—primarily back-end, but capable of delivering front-end features.
• Figure out solutions independently.
• Collaborate with product, engineering, and customers to deeply understand pain points.
• Design and implement test automation, scalability solutions, and complex data systems.
• If interested, grow into AI/ML integration, but this is not required.

What We’re Looking For

Must-Haves:

• Strong back-end experience (Python preferred, but open to others).
• Experience designing and scaling APIs, relational databases (PostgreSQL, etc.).
• Product thinking—ability to define solutions, not just execute tickets.
• Comfortable with ambiguity, startup pace, and fast problem-solving.
• Ability to work across the stack (front-end skills not the focus, but should deliver when needed).
