About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

You shape the technical future
You take technical responsibility for your area — from architecture to production operations.
You define target architectures, make well-founded architecture and build-vs-buy decisions, and set clear technical guardrails for our modern Java/Spring Boot and Angular/TypeScript landscape.
You challenge existing solutions, monitor market and technology trends, and evolve our systems deliberately with the goal of actively shaping the market rather than following it.
You bridge product and engineering
You work closely with Product and stakeholders, translating business goals into actionable technical approaches.
You critically question requirements, make dependencies and risks transparent, and support well-informed decisions.
You evaluate AI potentials and integrate them where they create real value — whether in the development process or in the product.
You keep delivery, quality and costs in view
You are responsible for the technical perspective across Discovery & Delivery, with a focus on architecture, quality and cost/benefit trade-offs.
You avoid unnecessary complexity and make clear decisions about where innovation makes sense.
You think technology through to operations
You maintain our high code and quality standards and ensure we can continue to release quickly and reliably.
You think beyond merge requests, detect structural weaknesses early, and ensure stability, maintainability and transparency in production operations.
You create technical orientation
You work with experienced developers who act independently and engage in open, peer-level discussions.
Through sparring, feedback and shared guardrails you help them take ownership and make confident technical decisions.
You are a strong communicator
You shine with open, clear and inspiring leadership — especially during periods of change.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Many years of experience developing complex software systems and in technical leadership roles, e.g., as Tech Lead, Senior Engineer or Staff Engineer
A strong sense for architecture, system design and sustainable technical decisions in mature, evolving system landscapes
Experience coordinating with Product and stakeholders and translating business requirements into technical tasks, taking responsibility for the feedback loop of technical decisions.
Several years of experience with Java / Spring Boot and ideally also knowledge of TypeScript / Angular
Confident handling of APIs, integrations, distributed systems and CI/CD in production-oriented software development
High standards for code quality, clear technical principles and test coverage
Good understanding of stability, scalability and maintainability in production — including under growing traffic.
Enjoy empowering colleagues through guidance, sparring and clear decisions
Interest in pragmatically applying new technologies and sensibly integrating AI potentials into the product (e.g., experience with Claude, Copilot or similar)
