This is THAT opportunity you've been waiting for. How many times have you missed your chance with THAT start-up which went to the moon?🚀


Don't miss this one 🦄


Manufacturing is one of the last industries to feel what AI can really do to it. This company is right at the front of that shift... and they're already winning.


The platform helps manufacturing businesses use AI to fundamentally change how they operate. Not bolt-on features. Not a chatbot on top of a legacy system. Real operational AI, built into workflows where the stakes are high and the value is obvious.


Early stage team with a proven market base already, they are scaling fast with HUGE potential. A founding team that has done this before - in this exact market, with this exact customer group. The previous company sold for €200M. They're back, with the same playbook, more AI, and a much bigger opportunity.


💰Up to €100k + benefits + Stock Options (Depending on experience)

🤖 Build AI that actually changes how factories operate

🚀 Real commercial traction - strong client base and scaling fast

🧠 Work directly with LLMs and shape how AI features get built and shipped

🌍 Less than a year old and offices in Utrecht, Amsterdam and Barcelona - proper setup, real team

💡 A founder backed by proof, not just pitch decks


What you'll be doing:


🔹 Design and build AI features end-to-end, from model integration to production

🔹 Work with LLMs and develop intelligent product capabilities that drive real outcomes for customers

🔹 Build on a Python/FastAPI backend and collaborate closely with product and engineering

🔹 Own the AI roadmap contributions - not just implement tickets

🔹 Help set the standard for how AI gets built across the platform


You'll love this if...


✅ You've built AI features or products before, not just experimented with them

✅ You're strong in Python and comfortable working close to LLMs in production

✅ You want ownership, not just a backlog to clear

✅ You want to build at a company where the commercial context makes your work matter

✅ You're based in the Netherlands and EU-authorised to work here
