Software Engineer - Fullstack

You build it, you run it, you own it-as a Full-Stack Software Engineer (all genders), you’ll be responsible for developing and operating the software for one of our projects. If TDD, continuous deployment, and a well-thought-out DevSecOps approach are important to you, then we should get to know each other. In the following blog posts, you’ll find more information about software development, interdisciplinary collaboration at DigitalService, and our guiding Delivery Principles., * End-to-End Ownership & Agile Work: You’ll work in a collaborative, interdisciplinary project team and take responsibility for the successful implementation of features-from development and testing through deployment to active operation.

• Tech Stack & Full-Stack Development: Your focus is on developing high-quality software, primarily using TypeScript/JavaScript, but also technologies such as Java, Spring, or React/Vue, depending on the project.
• Code Quality & Security: You write clean code and confidently apply best practices such as design patterns and (automated) tests. You always keep security and data protection requirements in mind, ensure scalability, and actively reduce technical debt.
• Domain Knowledge & Stakeholder Communication: You actively engage with complex business requirements, help break them down into iterable tasks, and can explain technical concepts in a way that’s understandable to non-technical stakeholders.
• Collaboration & Team Culture: You are an active part of our engineering culture. Through pair programming, regular code reviews, and open knowledge sharing, you contribute to the team’s collective growth and are motivated to continuously develop your skills.

• Full-stack experience: You have already developed and operated digital products and services from start to finish. You’re equally comfortable working on both the backend and the frontend-primarily with TypeScript/JavaScript or Java/Spring Boot, as well as the frontend frameworks React or Vue. You also have the flexibility to quickly familiarize yourself with new technologies.
• DevOps Mindset & Infrastructure Expertise: You’re familiar with the DevSecOps approach, have in-depth knowledge of infrastructure and container technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform), and are comfortable with Infrastructure-as-Code.
• Agile & Interdisciplinary Team Culture: You prefer working in agile, cross-functional teams and value constructive discussions as well as regular feedback with Design, Product, and User Research.
• Flexibility & Motivation: You’re open to switching to other projects and making your contribution where it creates the greatest value. You’re driven by a strong intrinsic motivation to improve the digital aspects of public administration.
• Communication & Language Skills: You are fluent in German (at least B1) and English (at least C1)-we use both languages in our day-to-day work.

• Our team of more than 70 engineers (of all genders) is distinguished by technical excellence, exceptional teamwork and communication skills, and a truly agile mindset.
• Join our team of more than 250 people, which works in an interdisciplinary and iterative manner - and is realising the vision of a digital state in collaboration with the Federal Administration.
• Work in the way that suits you best: you can organise your working hours flexibly, make use of our remote working options at any time, and choose your preferred operating system.
• The salary for this role ranges from 55.000 to 65.000 euros gross per year. When determining your individual placement within our salary bands and levels, we take into account the scope of responsibility of the role, the complexity of the tasks and the assessment of your skills from the initial interviews. You can find details of our level and salary system in our blog post “On Levels, Money and Fairness”.
• Urban Sports Club & more: Every month, you’ll receive a €50 voucher on top of your salary, which you can use however you like. Fitness, tech, transport or food - the choice is yours!
• In addition, we offer you an annual training budget of up to €2,000 with up to five days off - regardless of your role or level. As part of this, we also enable you to take language courses.

We are shaping a digital state - together with the administration. As a partner at eye level, we strengthen the administration on its way to driving its own digitalisation. With our own iterative product development and our commitment to better framework conditions, we create the basis for digital solutions that are scalable and effective.
