Your mission

You are passionate about being both a professional and a disciplined leader. The development and continuous improvement of your team are just as important to you as the products you and your team are responsible for.

Here's how you'll make an impact:

• You lead a team of highly motivated, specialized developers with a strong understanding of products and customers, enabling them to constantly improve themselves and their products. 

• You are the driving force in the further development of a cross-functional, self-organized team and optimally coordinate the individual strengths within the team. 

• You collaborate closely with the product team to achieve the best possible results and develop products with your team according to agile principles. 

• Like us, you value code reviews, unit testing, pair programming, and documentation, and you assist your team in achieving continuous improvement. 

• Additionally, you work closely with the People & Culture team to attract the best talent for your team and help in their successful development.

Your Qualification:

• You have at least three years of experience in the disciplinary management of a team in software engineering and several years of experience as a developer (m/f/x). 

• Ideally, you are familiar with one of the following technologies: Spring Boot, React or Kotlin. You have experience with modern software architecture patterns and are familiar with DevOps practices such as YBIYRI, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and cloud solutions (we use AWS). 

• Domain-Driven Design and Continuous Delivery are in your blood, and if something goes wrong, a post-mortem is more important to you than assigning blame.

• You see yourself as a 'servant leader,' have no problems helping out in software development, and understand the need for a test strategy.

• You take a holistic view of product development, possess a strong understanding of the market and customers, and have experience in the development of scalable, maintainable, and secure products in the SaaS environment. 

• You communicate fluently in English with internal and external partners and mediate easily between 'tech' and 'non-tech'.
