We have a culture that celebrates teamwork, fast iterations and measurable results. The way we work is direct, solution-oriented, authentic and customer-centric.

• work out requirements together with Product Owners, customers and stakeholders.
• actively contribute to technology decisions and architectural questions.
• communicate clearly and reliably with customers, stakeholders and within the team.
• understand customers and respond to their needs, while also helping to adapt business processes within their organisations alongside the software.
• continuously improve the organisation and the way we work through regular syncs and retrospectives, and share your knowledge.

• confidence working across different areas of software development, particularly frontend and backend, and a willingness to take responsibility across system boundaries.
• experience working with different stakeholders, such as Product Owners, business departments and customers, as well as in requirements engineering.
• the ability to structure complex problems and turn them into robust, sustainable solutions.

• very good German language skills, at least C1 level, for discussing complex functional topics with customers.
• good English language skills.
• valid authorisation to work in Germany; we are currently unable to offer visa or relocation sponsorship for this position.
