Romania onlyAbout the company:
Manukai is a Swiss technology company that develops data-driven software solutions focused on analytics, automation, and decision support. The company designs and builds scalable, production-grade systems that process complex data and translate it into actionable insights for operational and business use cases.
They take historical machining/programming data from a manufacturer (their past production runs, NC-code, machine parameters etc). Afterwards, they use algorithms to analyse and suggest optimal machining programs / process parameters for new parts (or variants) thereby reducing setup time and increasing efficiency. In the end, they integrate into existing workflows and tools (CAD/CAM, machine controllers) with minimal disruption — so manufacturers don’t need to overhaul their system.
About the role:
This role supports Manukai’s core product team in Zurich by developing and scaling their backend systems. You will work on well-scoped features and targeted bug fixes that improve the reliability, performance, and scalability of their platform.

- Develop and maintain the backbone of Manukai’s software stack
- Implement, monitor, and maintain system integrations
- Automate and optimize backend processes and workflows
- Deep dive into complex problems to design and implement efficient solutions
- Maintain high software quality and sustainable development practices; review code from other team members and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g. testability, efficiency, and style)
- Document backend architecture, services, and integration processes
Your Profile:
- Experience building backend services using Python, including application logic, data processing, and API development
- Working knowledge of C# (.NET) and/or C++ for performance-critical components and integration with Windows-based systems
- Extensive experience in Windows-based environments to create installers
