About The Position

Join BLP Digital, a leading company in ERP automation powered by agentic AI. Spun out of ETH Zurich and HSG, we develop AI agents to automate various enterprise functions for major corporations worldwide. Our solution is operational in over 40 countries, serving more than 550 customers and automating over 70,000 processes daily. Recognized as one of Switzerland's fastest-growing SaaS scaleups, our success is driven by deep technological and business process expertise, resulting in strong product-market fit and a growing global customer base. We have recently secured investment from Goldman Sachs Alternatives and are expanding into the UK with a new London office. We are seeking motivated individuals to join us in building the future.

The Platform Team at BLP is responsible for the foundational elements upon which product teams build their solutions. This includes shared services, APIs, the data access layer, and the component and design system. While the team's primary focus has been the frontend platform, there's a strategic initiative to deepen ownership further into the stack. This role will be instrumental in defining the platform layer, offering significant influence over its development.
