This includes developing web applications and services, building automation workflows, and managing our cloud infrastructure. The work is highly varied, every project needs a tailored solution that ultimately fits into the architecture of the platform as a whole.

We support each other and value open, direct communication without unnecessary formalities.

We started using AI tools early on across many areas of our development. For us, this isn’t a side project. It’s central to how we work and how we have a big impact as a small team. That’s why we’re continuously improving our context engineering and establishing standards in our app that AI understands well and whose output we can easily verify. As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll draw on your experience to shape our architecture and processes and help us continuously improve our AI development environment.

  • An independent, solution-oriented way of working and a willingness to take on responsibility
  • Knowledge of user experience and product design is a plus
  • In addition to fluency in English, fluency in German is strongly preferred

What we offer

  • A small team where you actively help shape the technical direction
  • A startup mindset with short communication paths and quick decisions
  • The opportunity to take on significant responsibility early on
  • Room and support for your professional growth

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
