Job description

Packaging is a market worth several hundred billion euros, and new EU rules such as PPWR, EPR and EUDR are forcing companies to rethink how they manage it. Our client started with a digital platform for packaging procurement, connecting companies with a Europe-wide supplier network. Its newer product is an end-to-end SaaS platform for packaging management. Companies bring in their packaging data and see how ready they are for current and upcoming regulation, and what needs to change.

The company is based in Berlin and backed by leading European investors, with a €15M Series A.

The role

This is a freelance, fully remote, team-augmentation role on the company’s newer product. You’ll be a full member of the engineering team, working in a small squad alongside Product and Design and reporting to the VP Technology. You’ll own projects from framing the problem through to running them in production. You’ll also help the engineers around you get better.

It suits a hands-on senior engineer who asks “why” before “how” and likes a young product with plenty still to shape. It’s not a pure architect role.
