Senior Platform Engineer .NET / Docker (f/m/d) (Remote)

Senior Platform Engineer .NET / Docker (f/m/d) - Remote in Germany

Company Overview

Synera is the leading AI Agent Platform for Engineering — companies like BMW, Airbus, NASA, and Hyundai use it to build autonomous digital engineers that execute real work inside CAD, CAE, and PLM tools.

Job Summary

Synera ships today as a desktop app. Your job is to change that — lift the backend into containers, build the on-prem server product from its first commit, and make the whole platform a breeze to operate. If you've ever looked at a monolith and thought "I know how to take this apart," this is the role.

Key Responsibilities

• Extracting the .NET backend from its desktop dependencies.
• Containerizing the application with Docker.
• Standing up CI/CD, install, upgrade, and licensing flows for on-prem deployment.
• Taking over auth tasks.
• Making the platform AI-native: building MCP servers, agent skills, and documentation written for AI agents.
• Contribute to growing a small, senior team.
• Drive work to a finished, deployed state and raise blockers early.

Requirements / Qualifications

• You have 5+ years of experience building backend software in C#/.NET.
• You have a track record of decoupling backend logic from a UI or desktop layer — extracting services, removing hard dependencies, making code run headless and under test.
• You've containerized production applications with Docker (multi-stage builds, Linux images, image-size control) — beyond tutorial level.
• You've built and owned CI/CD pipelines that teams rely on.
• You've packaged software for environments the vendor doesn't control: on-prem or customer-hosted install, upgrade, configuration, and secrets management.
• You work AI-native: you use AI tooling in your daily engineering and want to build agent-facing tooling for the platform.
• You work autonomously and drive work to a finished, deployed state.
• You're fluent in English at professional working proficiency.

Salary & Benefits

• Salary: Experienced Level (€74,000 - €92,000) or Advanced Level (€88,000 - €116,500) based on experience.
• Flexible working: you decide when & where to work (residency in Germany required).
• Flexible public holidays.
• Home office setup support + access to our office in Bremen.
• Personal development budget of €2,000.
• No counted vacation days.
• JobRad (bicycle leasing).
• Company fitness with Wellpass and mental health platform nilo.
• Regular team events and 2-3 day off-sites twice a year.
