Senior Software Developer ⋆ Cloud Ecosystem

Your role as Solution Software Developer

If you have a passion for building new, scalable products, solving technical problems to create valuable features and have a sweet spot for open source, join us!

Exchanging data between different applications is something we all have to do, but no one really likes to do it. It is tedious work, doesn’t scale and is usually expensive for the customer when done in a one-off project. We believe, that exchanging data should be offered by default within any innovative software solution.

Born from the community of cloud vendors in Germany (the Cloud Ecosystem), we already explored technical concepts to make data exchange easy and published technology and standards open source via the Open Integration Hub framework. The open source components and their flexible containerized architecture (k8s) are a good starting point. Now we want to elevate this framework to the next level.

You will have the opportunity to use and expand your knowledge and creativity to develop a new platform for software vendors all over the globe. We will provide high value features to make data exchange scalable and easy. Solid funding by the German government via a research project, allows us to explore new technical solutions and develop a sustainable solution. Be part of this exciting journey and put your skills to work on your own product!

Building a new platform

You will bring the open source framework to live and connect with developers from the community. Together with a small team of a Product Owner and a Junior Developer you will start to build a new platform from scratch, grow what can become a global business and potentially take on the role as CTO.

Your responsibilities include:

Developing the technical concept for the platform and find technical solutions for different use cases
Developing core features of the platform and assure stable deployment
Use and improve the open source components provided by the community
Manage the development process internally and give back to the open source community
Oversee setup and management of the k8s cluster
Guide and mentor the technical team

Your Experience & Skills

5 years of development experience
Product mindset – be aware of the impact of what you develop
Experience with the current core tech of the open source framework is a plus: node.js, k8s, docker, MongoDB
Be familiar with microservice architectures
Experience with APIs and data integration
Management of software development process (e.g. Scrum Master)
Wanting to learn new things and see change as a chance to improve
Fluency in German is a plus – an existing work permit for Germany is a must

What we offer

Be part of a newly formed team to build a vibrant community, great tech and to shape a new platform. We provide an excellent environment to grow your own ideas, learn, take responsibility and shape a whole new business model and product.

In order to build something from scratch, trusting, helping and motivating each other is crucial. We offer a nice office atmosphere, team events and a transparent work culture. The most important ingredient for success however, is you and how you want to shape the culture and results around you.
