We’re searching for a Full-Stack Engineer, ideally with 5+ years of experience in SaaS projects. Got the skills in both frontend and backend? Perfect! Here's where your knowledge will come in handy:

• Agile software development in a platform team
• Experience in modern architectures, design patterns, and best practices for clean code
• PHP8 & SQL
• Automated feedback loops via CI/CD (build stages + tests)
• React and TypeScript
• GraphQL APIs

Nice-to-have:

• Domain-Driven Design (DDD), iterative refactorings
• Developer Tooling, AWS Cloud, Docker
• Modernising of monolithic applications
• Enabling dev teams, innersource Maintainer

Since we work in cross-functional teams, mastering every area is not necessary. But you should have expert knowledge in at least one area. What matters most is that you share our values and are a good fit with our crew. We value personal development and provide the space for it. Strong English language skills are essential, as we regularly communicate with colleagues in the US and write documentation in English. At work, we communicate mostly in German, but we can all speak English. If you speak pirate, that wouldn’t hurt either – YYYAAAARRRRrrrrrr!

We're currently forming another platform team (in line with Team Topologies) where you will set your anchor. Your expertise will have real impact on our crew as your internal customers. In addition to ongoing work, this team will tackle projects in the following areas:

• Establishing a managed service for feature flags and A/B experiments
• Optimization of our deployment process and pipelines (GitLab)
• Improved organization of existing modules according to Domain-Driven Design
• Scaling of our database setup (Aurora MySQL)
• Migrating our message queue to a standardized solution (AWS)
• Making insights from observability tools available (Datadog)

Since our founding in 2014, we’ve been disrupting the package shipping market in the US with our software.

Our mission is to make the complex parcel shipping process as simple, user-friendly, and affordable as possible. We operate in multiple locations in the US and serve the American market exclusively. However, the development of our web app has always had its home base in Hamburg-Ottensen.

Together with our overseas colleagues, we work daily to deliver the best possible product for our users. This is what we're valued for, and it’s the wind in our sails.

As an owner-managed company with a crisis-proof product in a growth-oriented market, we can combine high-quality standards, attention to detail, and an attractive working environment with great conditions. We believe creativity and room for personal ideas provide the optimal environment for innovation, progress, and quality. Trust and helpfulness, combined with many opportunities to take on responsibility, enable personal growth. This means working with little hierarchy and a pull, not push, approach to tasks.

This agile, self-organized way of working requires a high level of personal responsibility and enthusiasm for close teamwork. We give each other quick feedback and aren’t afraid of conflict, but always find fair, solution-oriented consensus. In doing so, we learn a lot from each other, and value diversity as opportunity.

To ensure long-term collaboration, we do everything possible to make family and work compatible.

You won’t be happy here if you expect complete, end-to-end processes like in large corporations. On our ship, some things are still not perfectly tied down, but we work together to improve systematically. You’ll also be unhappy if you’re a lone wolf, apathetic, or expect to be told exactly what to do. And if you happen to be a macho, fascist, or conspiracy theorist, you’ll be quickly keelhauled!

We haven’t listed the usual perks like free fruit, beer, foosball, or ball pits. If you’d like those, let’s chat. We either already have them or can make them happen! We offer the following:

• You decide whether to work remotely or on-site at our Hamburg-Ottensen office
• We’re only hiring in Hamburg and surrounding areas, as we occasionally meet in person for special events
• Part-time work is possible
• 30 days of vacation
• Flexible working hours
• You can take it as a given that you'll be allocated time and money for your professional development
• Regarding development environments: we use a lot of macOS, but also ARRRrrrch Linux and Ubuntu. Windows isn’t supported and isn’t planned. You’ll work with a MacBook or ThinkPad. Most of us use PHPStorm, Vim, or VS Code for development.

If you think you’d be a good fit for our team, feel free to reach out!
