Interdisciplinary Project Student (IDP) - AI Engineer
Why we're hiring:
Construction runs on documents — thousands per project, hundreds of pages each, all interdependent. Contracts, tenders, bids, technical specifications, change orders. Today, commercial teams at large construction companies still process these manually. We're building the AI platform that changes that.
We're Arctis AI, a Munich-based pre-seed startup. €1M raised, backed by PT1, EWOR, NVIDIA Inception, TUM Venture Labs, and Google for Startups. We work with construction enterprises across Europe and Turkey — and we're just getting started.
We're looking for an IDP student who wants to build real product — not a research prototype that sits on a shelf. You'll get your own Claude Code subscription and unlimited AI credits to move fast.
What you'll do:
Own a full feature end-to-end: from problem scoping to shipping it to real enterprise customers
Build AI systems that process hundreds of pages of nuanced legal and technical documents — the kind that decide how €100M+ infrastructure projects get built
Work directly with the founding team — no middle management, no ticket queues
Solve hard problems at the intersection of NLP, document intelligence, and domain-specific AI — in a space where mistakes cost millions and existing tools don't cut it
Who you are:
Master student in Informatics at TUM
You ship. You don't wait for specs — you figure it out, build it, and iterate
Strong in Python and/or TypeScript. Bonus: experience with LLMs, FastAPI, Next.js, or graph databases
High agency, low ego. You care about outcomes, not job titles
Comfortable with ambiguity — this is a startup, not a Praktikum at a DAX company :)
What you get:
Direct impact on a product used by real enterprise customers
Work alongside engineers from Palantir, AWS, Snowflake, and SAP — backed by EWOR, Europe's leading founder program
Your own Claude Code subscription and unlimited AI credits — we invest in your tools
A reference and network that matters if you want to start something yourself
