Backend Engineer - Agentic AI (m/w/d)
About The Position
getpress is developing its own AI agent platform (LangGraph, PostgreSQL, Next.js) for the PR industry. The service market, from legal to consulting to agencies, is facing the biggest transformation in history. At the same time, the multi-billion dollar PR market is becoming increasingly important in the age of AI visibility. getpress, one of the fastest-growing PR agencies in Germany (>40 people, clients like Trivago, Komoot, Fonio AI, or AutoScout24), has decided to lead this change rather than wait. We are building the PR Company of the future: no longer just a service company, but a Service-as-a-Software Company. Our AI team has been in place for 4 months, currently consisting of one developer, a product manager, and our Head of AI. The basic architecture is in place, and initial parts of our PR platform and multi-agent system are running productively. Now we need you – the person who, as a Backend Engineer, will own and redefine the technical foundation together with our second developer, and together redefine how PR of the future works.

- > 1 year of experience in developing AI agents and components such as memory, context engineering, retrieval, and orchestration using frameworks like Langchain, CrewAI, Langgraph, or similar.

Responsibilities
- Full-stack development of the platform, which will become the operating system of the PR agency in 2027. Close to the users, in fast development cycles, and where your decisions set the course.
- Building an agent system that redefines the PR value chain end-to-end. You will build the agents that our consultants work with daily, including self-learning loops and multi-agent orchestration.
- Co-designing the system architecture, including workflows, data model, interfaces, compliance, and tech stack (currently mainly PostgreSQL, Next.js, LangGraph, Docker).
