We offer…

… an outstanding work environment consisting of an international team of roughly 50 people. Besides Germany your future colleagues are stemming from Brazil, Finland, France, India, Iran, Italy, Japan, Ghana, the Netherlands, Pakistan, the Philippines, Poland, Spain, Turkey, Ukraine, the USA and Vietnam. Our office is located close to Gesundbrunnen, right in the center of Berlin with excellent public transportation connections into all directions. For all new employees whose mother tongue isn’t German we offer intensive German courses after work, (after-work Billard parties as well :-).

The software development process has some “agile” elements, however due to the very close cooperation with our partners and customers in their development processes, the observation of mutually agreed upon release dates is a must. Nevertheless, our motto is “Quality First” which means that any decision, acknowledgement, and promise must comply with this approach. We are using Jira for error reporting, development/bug fixing time estimation, release planning, and time tracking, and we are using MS Teams for the internal communication. Our development team must review other developer’s software design and code and get their own design and code reviewed before checking-in. All development and QA team members participate in daily stand-up-meetings and the weekly sprint planning.

After probation time we offer you to work 60% (3 days/week) from home. Additionally, we support environmental-friendly behavior with a funding of 15 € monthly for public transportation subscriptions and bicycle-leasing. We try to avoid the need for working overtime hours as much as we can, and you can help us in this undertaking by becoming a member of the team!

Our hobbies are (not surprisingly) playing Billard, table tennis, travelling, jogging, bouldering, dog parenting, hiking, surfing, making music, bicycling, going to movie theatres, gaming, gardening, dancing, cooking, experimenting with distilling alcoholic spirits, speedy cars, motorbikes and lots of nerd stuff of course….. One of our dogs is always hanging around loving to be hugged or played with. Alternatively, if you need a bit of exercise, you surely will find someone to play a round of table tennis with you.

If you want to join the “gang”, and you are ready to contribute with your skills to our team, we are looking forward to receiving your application
