Senior Software Engineer

About the job

Senior Software Engineer

What to expect

• A friendly cross-functional product team with a hands-on team lead, product manager, and several T-shaped full-stack engineers who share responsibility together.

• You work in variations of Scrum or Kanban. Engineers also roll up their sleeves during refinement and actively contribute to architecture and product questions.

• Lots of creative freedom and the chance to actively shape high code quality within the team and across team boundaries.

• Enough legacy, complexity, and established structures to really make a difference with a good dose of resilience and improve systems step by step.

What you bring

We match if you:

• Have many years of solid experience in modern, product-oriented software engineering (preferably with Java) and have already worked on complex, distributed systems - ideally in e-commerce or comparable domains.

• Know modern engineering practices not only theoretically but have lived them in everyday work, for example in CI/CD, automated testing, decoupling, code reviews, and observability.

• See concepts like DDD, Clean Architecture, Event-Driven Architecture, SOLID, Feature Flags, or Dependency Injection not as buzzwords but as tools you use sensibly and pragmatically.

• Are a strong advocate of "You build it, you own it" and have experience in environments where releases happen multiple times a day.

• Enjoy sharing your knowledge, like pair programming, whiteboard sessions, and code reviews, and help to further develop the engineering level within the team.

• Bring depth in your field and at the same time move confidently across adjacent areas.

• Enjoy working closely with product managers and want to understand the problem we are actually solving. You formulate requirements and think from the user and business perspective.

• Value true agility and like working in short iterations, learning quickly, gathering feedback, and making data-informed decisions.

• Use AI tools in your workflow and pursue further education out of intrinsic motivation simply because you enjoy growing professionally and personally.

• Persevere through complex problems and have the resilience to see topics through to success.

• Are a warm-hearted communicator who values an open learning culture, enjoys building personal connections within the team, and can laugh at good jokes.

• Prefer frameworks like SAFe or projects that start with a requirements specification.

• Have mainly worked in highly regulated areas without experience in a fast-paced, product-oriented environment.

• Feel more comfortable in role models where infrastructure, backend, frontend, testing, and product thinking are clearly separated.

• Take over requirements that are fixed and fully formulated instead of sharpening them together with product management and truly understanding customers.

• See further education primarily as the employer's responsibility and do not learn further out of your own interest, whether "on the job", at an evening event, or simply by reading a book.

• Are more frustrated than motivated by imperfect systems - spoiler: we are not there yet.

• Strictly separate work and good humour.
