## About the Role

What you bring to the table

 * About six to eight years of professional experience, including several years of backend development in a typed language in production
 * You've taken responsibility for architecture yourself, not just implemented it: Domain-Driven Design, hexagonal architecture, and modular monoliths are decisions you've made and stood by
 * Making decisions even when requirements are still fluid
 * Clean modeling of business domains
 * Cloud at the architectural level, with a deliberate selection of services (AWS, Azure, and GCP are all equally viable to us)
 * Reliably deliver React without being a front-end specialist
 * Write tests, lead by example in code reviews

## Description

* Take full responsibility for entire features and epics, from conception through deployment
 * Quickly get your bearings in unfamiliar codebases and see the big picture of the entire system-across backend, frontend, infrastructure, and interfaces
 * Communicate directly with business teams, make decisions about architecture, and take ownership of them
 * Raise risks, dependencies, and integration issues early on-not just right before release-and build small proof-of-concepts when a technical question can't be resolved otherwise
 * Estimate in a way that accounts for uncertainty: not "five days," but "five days, risk: the API specification is still unclear"
 * Get the team on board: pair programming, reviews that foster learning, onboarding, and standards and conventions that will endure even after you're gone

For us, the last point isn't just a bonus-it's the heart of the matter. We're on-site with the client to help the entire team work faster, not just to check off tickets., * Native-level German, because you'll be communicating directly with German business departments and modeling domains

What Will Give You a Significant Edge

 * Interface and integration design
 * Active communication with customers
 * Gradual modernization of large legacy landscapes
 * "API as a Product" and Developer Experience
 * Active engagement with current developments in AI and automation
