Back-End Developer | sourcera.ai - #2198389

At sourcera.ai, we’re rethinking enterprise procurement with AI. Our platform connects sourcing tools, automates workflows, and turns fragmented procurement data into actionable insights — streamlining everything from spend analysis to RFPs. Backed by early traction and deep domain expertise, we're building the AI-powered operating system for enterprise procurement.

sourcera.ai is a new digital venture incubated by vanlaack partners, a consulting firm specialized in procurement strategy and digital transformation. While our dedicated website is still in development, all roles are listed here during our build-up phase.

We’re looking for a Back-End Developer to help us bring our platform to life — someone who can build robust services and data flows with autonomy and purpose.

You Will

• Design and develop modular, scalable APIs using Node.js / Express
• Build secure, reliable data pipelines and integrations with third-party procurement systems
• Help define and maintain our MongoDB-based data architecture
• Work closely with frontend, DevOps, and product teams to deliver complete feature sets
• Contribute to CI/CD, testing, and cloud infrastructure (Azure-based)
• Shape backend architecture as we move from MVP to scale
  
  

You’ll be part of a focused team that values clean code, pragmatic decisions, and shared ownership.

• 3+ years of backend development experience (ideally in Node.js)
• Confident designing APIs, data models, and scaling backend systems
• Experience with MongoDB, containerized environments, and CI/CD pipelines
• Comfortable in a cloud-native environment (Azure preferred)
• Exposure to procurement tech, enterprise systems, or AI use cases is a plus
• Based in Germany or a CET-friendly timezone; German fluency is a bonus
  
  

What we offer?

• A key role in an early-stage, product-led AI startup
• Competitive compensation
• Close collaboration with our CTO and founding team
• Full ownership of backend systems for a category-defining platform
• Real startup momentum — clear priorities, fast decisions, meaningful impact
  
  

If you’re ready to help shape the infrastructure behind a smarter future for procurement, we’d love to hear from you.

This role is part of sourcera.ai, currently incubated by van Laack & partners.

If you have any questions about the role or the application process, feel free to reach out. We're always happy to help!
