Zürich, Zürich, Schweiz Squirro Vollzeit

At Squirro, we build solutions that bring structure, clarity, and insight to messy real-world data. Our work sits at the intersection of AI, search, and real business impact — used daily by leading organizations like the Bank of England, Standard Chartered, and the European Central Bank.  

We're looking for a hands-on Senior Software Engineer who's excited by complex challenges, but equally driven to simplify. Someone curious, pragmatic, and results-oriented—ready to join us in shaping the next generation of intelligent search and generative AI solutions.

What You'll Do

  • Engineer with purpose: Design, implement, and improve search and AI components powering our platform — where performance, scalability, and reliability really matter.  
  • Solve hard problems: Work across NLP, retrieval, generative AI, and distributed systems to build features that make messy data usable and valuable.  
  • Collaborate: Partner closely with product and fellow engineers — turning ideas into concrete solutions that work at scale.  
  • Keep it simple: Bring clarity to complexity. Cut through noise with clean designs, maintainable code, and practical solutions.  
  • Own it: Take responsibility from design to deployment, measuring and improving your work with the right metrics. 

What You Bring

  • Strong experience building and scaling backend systems — ideally search- or data-heavy and in python.  
  • Solid knowledge of Elasticsearch (or similar) and distributed systems fundamentals.  
  • Familiarity with NLP techniques, Retrieval-Augmented Generation, or broader AI/ML concepts (or the curiosity to go deep fast).  
  • A pragmatic mindset: you care about results, reliability, and simplicity, not just shiny tech.  
  • Comfort working in a collaborative, fast-moving environment where ideas quickly turn into production.e.

Why Join Us

  • Impact: Your work won't disappear into a pipeline — you'll see it used by some of the world's leading organizations.  
  • Growth: Work on cutting-edge problems in AI and search, alongside experienced engineers who value curiosity and learning.  
  • Culture: Agile, startup-like, with quick decision-making and plenty of room to contribute ideas.  
  • Balance: We believe in continuous feedback, lifelong learning, and supporting personal growth.
