About viboo

Our mission at viboo is to reduce the environmental impact of buildings while helping property owners lower operational costs. We therefore developed an AI-based Building Management System (BMS) built on top of scalable IoT infrastructure. The system uses self-learning AI to predictively optimize heating energy consumption in buildings, one of the largest contributors to global carbon emissions.
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our impact-driven ETH spin-off, starting immediately or by agreement. In this role, your expertise in software engineering, cloud architecture, and databases will play a key role in powering and scaling our AI-based BMS.

Your mission

  • Designing cloud-based software architectures and developing individual software components to ensure smooth deployment of new features, platform reliability, and scalability.
  • Maintaining and improving the CI/CD/CT pipeline for DevOps and MLOps.
  • Contributing to overall product development and expanding your competencies and knowledge.
  • Debugging issues and optimizing platform performance during on-call shifts.
  • Conducting peer reviews of code written by AI and other developers.
  • Reporting directly to the CTO on an ongoing basis.

You’re a perfect fit if you …

  • 5+ years of professional experience in software architecture design and backend/API development, with strong Python expertise.
  • Proven experience with public cloud providers; GCP experience is a strong advantage.
  • Deep expertise in PostgreSQL and TimescaleDB, with solid experience managing and processing time-series data.
  • Strong knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices with Kubernetes; familiarity with MLOps tooling, particularly Kubeflow and Prometheus, is a plus.
  • Hands-on experience building software with AI agents, AI assistants, and Model Context Protocol (MCP).
  • A proactive, driven mindset with intellectual curiosity, a user-centric approach, and a genuine commitment to team collaboration.
  • Fluent English communication skills (C1 or above), with the ability to convey ideas clearly and effectively across teams.

Why viboo?

  • An international, smart, and enthusiastic team with a clear vision.
  • A meaningful job in a DeepTech startup committed to sustainability.
  • Exciting insights into the rapidly growing and emerging AI industry.
  • Short decision paths, flat hierarchies, and the opportunity to shape the company.
  • Competitive salary package, including an employee stock option plan (ESOP).
  • Hybrid work options and flexible working hours.
  • A steep learning curve to accelerate your career and individual training opportunities.
  • Regular team events.

Über uns

Um die Klimakrise zu bewältigen, brauchen wir Lösungen, die schnell umgesetzt werden können. Eine Senkung des Wärmeverbrauchs in jedem Europäischen Gebäude um 30% würde den gesamten Energiebedarf und die CO2-Emissionen des Kontinents um etwa 10% senken. Es braucht Technologien und erfolgreiche Unternehmen, um einen schnellen Wandel herbeizuführen.
viboo basiert auf jahrelanger Forschung an der Empa und der ETH Zürich sowie an anderen weltweit führenden Labors für Gebäudeautomation wie der RWTH Aachen und dem Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. Mit unserem Team haben wir zahlreiche Förderungen und Awards gewonnen, wie z.B. das BRIDGE-Stipendium, alle Venture Kick-Stufen, den Innobooster der Gebert Rüf Stiftung, das Swiss GreenTech Startup Battle, den Empa Innovation Award und die ETH-Medaille. Wir sind #49 der TOP100 Startups der Schweiz und #2 im Bereich Proptech.
Unser Management-Team vereint komplementäre Fähigkeiten und Erfahrungen. Felix Bünning (CEO) und Benjamin Huber (CTO) haben die Algorithmen der Plattform mitentwickelt, während Matthias Sulzer (Präsident des Verwaltungsrats) als erfahrener Energieexperte und Unternehmer ein breites Spektrum an Kompetenzen einbringt.
