Editorial Technologist (m/w/d) – Innovation & Prototyping für Redaktionen

Innovate the Newsroom with AI

As an Editorial Technologist at ida.me, you will bridge the gap between creative media ideas and functional digital products. You'll spend your days building rapid prototypes and MVPs that help journalists navigate the evolving digital landscape. This isn't just about maintaining systems; it's about leading workshops, pitching fresh concepts to media houses, and using your technical vision to show what’s possible in the future of journalism.

AI-First Development & Tech

The technical environment is tailor-made for those who leverage AI to move faster. You'll utilize a stack featuring Python, TypeScript, and React, but the real magic happens through your mastery of AI agents and LLMs. The company views vibe-coding as a core craft, allowing you to focus on architecting robust APIs and intuitive frontends without getting bogged down in boilerplate. You'll ensure every prototype is built with a clear path toward scalable, production-ready code.

Flexibility and Impact

You have the opportunity to influence the digital strategy of major public and private broadcasters while enjoying a work culture that adapts to your life. Whether you prefer a remote setup or the energy of a Leipzig-based office, you choose your hardware and your methodology—whether that's Scrum, Kanban, or a pragmatic hybrid. This is a role for a communicative builder who loves to stay on the pulse of tech trends and share that knowledge with the wider media community.
