We started as Matterway, a German startup building automation software from scratch. We were acquired by Cognizant, but we kept our team, our culture, our pace, and our way of working. We move like a startup, think like a startup, and now do it with the backing of a global company. 

We combine human expertise with intelligent automation, ML operations, and digital experience solutions to help technology and digital-native companies build smarter, more adaptive operating models. 

What's the opportunity? 

We are looking for Senior Product Engineers to join our team. We're a tight crew of 5 senior engineers, from different corners of the world. We're hiring 3 more people, and those people will shape what this team becomes. 

We're building a platform to support the agentification of our operations. You'll work across a suite of products including a cloud platform for process optimization, desktop application, browser extension, and specialized AI agents. 

This is genuinely frontier work: we don't follow AI trends, we implement them. New model drops on a Monday; we've prototyped with it by Wednesday.
