As a Lead Application Engineer at Blue Harvest, you bridge the gap between robust enterprise engineering and the emerging world of AI. You’ll design and deliver applications for top financial clients, working directly with banks, insurers, and fintechs, where LLMs, RAG pipelines, and agentic workflows are increasingly core features.
you'll be a hands-on leader, translating business goals into technical reality, mentoring the next generation of engineers, and establishing yourself as a local thought leader while growing your market impact.
We are a startup within an enterprise, a specialized unit built to move fast and break the "consultancy" mold. We believe that true engineering leadership isn't about managing tickets, it's about owning the solution and challenging the status quo.
We foster a culture where technical mastery meets emotional intelligence. Whether it's hackathons, building the next "secret weapon" for our engineering community or Friday afternoon beers, we are a place for those who want to speak, lead, and leave a legacy.
Architect and implement backend (or fullstack) solutions, integrating AI models and services where they add value.
Lead by example: write clean, testable code, set the standard for DevOps, and mentor engineers across the team.
Collaborate with clients to translate business goals into technical roadmaps, spotting opportunities for AI-native innovation.
Core Engineering: Strong experience in backend engineering (Java) and familiarity with front-end frameworks (React, Angular, Vue) for a full-stack flavor.
Deep knowledge of API design (REST/gRPC/GraphQL) and cloud-native patterns (Azure/AWS/GCP).
Leadership: Proven ability to lead teams and drive technical excellence.
Fluent in English; Experience with financial services, regulatory requirements, or secure data handling.
Contributions and active participation to open source, tech talks, blogs or developer communities.

Best of Both Worlds: The agility and fun of a startup, with the stability and resources of Capgemini.
We support you to become a thought leader and want you on stage, sharing your knowledge.
A team that values curiosity, connection, and the occasional octopus-level multitasking
