LabV is a Munich-based software company and a member of the NETZSCH Group, specializing in AI-powered data management solutions for materials research, quality control, and process optimization. Founded in 2022, LabV offers a cloud-based platform designed to transform industrial laboratories into intelligent data hubs, enhancing efficiency and product quality across various sectors.

We are looking for a Software Engineer to support the further development of our AI team and the underlying LabV platform. Strong software engineering background and initial experience with LLMs—or a clear motivation to grow in this area. Solid backend engineering, microservices, and platform integration, with opportunities to expand into LLM-related development.

Responsibilities

• Understand and analyze laboratory use cases processed via LabV (e.g., quality analysis of recyclates).
• Develop, extend, and maintain microservices and APIs that interface with our AI assistant and LabV platform.
• Contribute to the integration of LLM tools and AI functionality into production-grade systems.
• Ensure scalable, observable, and well-tested backend services.
• Implement CI/CD pipelines, cloud deployments, and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) configurations.
• Support the development of conversational interfaces powered by LLMs.
• Collaborate with the AI team to translate platform requirements into robust software systems.

Requirements

• Strong experience in Python and modern software engineering practices.
• Experience with microservices, API design, and backend integration.
• Knowledge of cloud deployment, CI/CD, testing, IaC, observability, and scalability concepts.
• Initial exposure to LLMs, AI models, or prompt-based interfaces—or strong motivation to learn.
• Experience with modern development tooling and best practices.
• Willingness to develop skills in LLM tooling, embeddings, RAG, and conversational AI over time.
