• Quality Assurance: Produce clean, maintainable code adhering strictly to Clean Code principles, participating in regular peer code reviews, automated testing, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Team Collaboration: Work shoulder-to-shoulder with 5–10 developers, Product Owners, and cross-functional partners in an open, peer-to-peer communication setting.

Candidate Profile

• Frontend Competency: Solid, practical experience building web applications using TypeScript and Angular.
• Core Engineering Principles: Strong command of Clean Code guidelines, software design patterns, system security, and Git/GitHub version control workflows.
• Residency & Language: Legal residency within Germany combined with C2-level German fluency (written and spoken).
• HQ Visits: Willingness to travel to the Kiel headquarters 1 to 4 times a year for company gatherings (all travel expenses fully covered).
