Position Overview:

This is a vacancy for a hybrid or on-site role at our HQ in Tutzing (South of Munich). We encourage applications from all qualified candidates, regardless of gender identity.

As we continuously expand and improve our Data Platform, we are seeking a Software Engineer (m/f/x) to join our Product & Engineering department. This department is responsible for the design, development and growth of our Data Platform as well as our Data Network and connected Data Products. We are in the process of merging our core products into a single, unified, platform and are looking for key engineering talent to join our teams. In this role, you will be responsible for implementing new capabilities, improving existing capabilities and guiding less experienced team members to grow their technical expertise.

Ready to make an impact?

You’ll get to take ownership of:

• Contribute to the design, development, and deployment of components within our Data Platform.
• Participate in code reviews and follow best practices to help maintain high code quality.
• Learn from senior colleagues while steadily taking on more responsibility and sharing knowledge with peers.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand requirements and implement effective technical solutions.

We’d love to meet someone with:

• 3–6 years of experience in backend or full-stack development, with solid skills in Java.
• Familiarity with Angular 2+, TypeScript, or Vaadin is a plus, but not required.
• Some experience with test automation (e.g., JUnit).
• Hands-on experience with at least one database, such as PostgreSQL, Oracle, MSSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB.
• Exposure to integration models and protocols such as HTTP, REST, or GraphQL; knowledge of others (e.g., AS2) is a plus.
• A good understanding of software design principles and best practices.
• Strong debugging skills and a problem-solving mindset.
• Familiarity with object-oriented programming concepts and ability to work with higher-level abstractions.
• Knowledge of asynchronous communication systems (e.g., Kafka, AMQP, or MQTT) is nice to have, but not essential.
• Clear and effective communication skills in English; German is a plus.

You can look forward to:

• A modern, spacious office with a view of Lake Starnberg in Tutzing
• Subsidised lunches in our in-house restaurant
• A personal learning and development budget
• 30 vacation days per year
• Up to 20 days of remote work per year from any EU country
• Bike leasing through our partnership with JobRad
• Opportunity to work flexibly from home
• Team evenings every Thursday with refreshments covered by the company
• A company pension plan (bAV)
