Senior Full Stack Entwickler:in (d/m/w)

About Us

As a Senior Full Stack Developer, I help ensure that over 60,000 employers can easily process payroll and pay their employees on time every month.

Who can say that about themselves and their job? What sounds like a dream will come true for you. By joining Lexware Office – the market leader for cloud software solutions for small businesses and self-employed individuals. With clever products, we already support over 400,000 small and micro-businesses in Germany. We manage their accounting, taxes and finances, payroll, and inventory management. When something is well-received, reinforcements are needed. Join us to make Lexware even more successful.

Your Role

We are looking for your support as a Senior Full Stack Developer (m/f/d) as soon as possible. Our office in Freiburg im Breisgau offers the ideal environment for collaboration and creative exchange, as we place great value on direct communication. However, we naturally work not only in the office but also flexibly from home or from Leipzig and Berlin.

Responsibilities

• You will be part of one of our agile, cross-functional teams as a Senior Full Stack Developer, consisting of a Scrum Master, Product Owner, Business Analyst, Developers, and UX Designer.
• As a developer, you will extend and improve the Lexware Office codebase together with other members of the Lexware Office team, continuously adapting it to evolving business requirements.
• You can contribute constructively and critically to team discussions, thus making joint decisions and contributing to consensus-based solution finding.
• You work independently and actively help to find and implement meaningful, robust, and feasible technical solutions for new features.
• If problems or obstacles arise, you do not hesitate and act yourself or approach a colleague. We prefer short distances and direct communication.
• Finally, you are willing to familiarize yourself with new topics and subject areas and to use this newly acquired knowledge meaningfully in upcoming tasks.
• Your code contributes to the continued success of Lexware Office.
• You are part of a large tech community that regularly exchanges ideas on cross-cutting topics and the continuous further development of our technical infrastructure.

Profile

• You already have several years of experience in developing and conceptualizing cloud-based applications, including sound knowledge of microservice architectures, database design, and RESTful APIs.
• You have (very) good knowledge of Java and Spring Boot; knowledge of frontend frameworks (especially React) and AWS, or the willingness to familiarize yourself in these areas, would be advantageous.
• You have an intrinsic interest in high-quality software development, a structured way of working, and can familiarize yourself with complex business domains. You also approach the implementation of new features reliably and with commitment. You always consider both the technical requirements and the decisions made within the team.
• You can repeatedly adopt the perspective of our customers to make payroll accounting a great experience for them.
• You are passionate about agile software development (Scrum) and are comfortable with an iterative approach. Teamwork, constructive and proactive communication, and taking responsibility are a matter of course for you.
• Our team language is German, so very good German skills (at least C2) are a must.

We rely on team recruiting – our team conducts the application interviews themselves. We look forward to getting to know you.

• In his job as Product Owner at Lexware, Alexander values working with great colleagues to develop solutions that turn small employers into big stars, enabling them to pay their team on time and according to all the rules of the art.
• Claudia loves challenges and bringing order to chaos. That's why she's in the right place as a Business Analyst. For her, it's important to find the right balance for our customers between legal requirements and the right flow for payroll. In her private life, she also tries to maintain balance every day and enjoy life. Especially with good music in her ears.
• Marco, as a developer, loves to translate complex requirements into sustainable code based on viable architecture. He finds balance in nature, preferably in the mountains.
• Markus feels at home in both front-end and back-end development and likes to think about processes end-to-end. In his free time, he seeks adrenaline rushes on his mountain bike, speeding down the Freiburg trails.
• Falco is most comfortable in the backend and enjoys analyzing processes and devising methods to master complex issues.
• As a developer, Jurek particularly enjoys automating things and finding creative solutions. In his free time, he is an enthusiastic musician and can often be found at the piano or synthesizer.
• As a Scrum Master, Dominik guides the process towards optimal interaction between all roles in a team and across team boundaries. In his private life, he seeks this inspiring challenge on the footvolley court.
• As a UX designer, Tobias ensures that our users stay in the flow even with complex topics like payroll. He also seeks flow on his bike – on challenging climbs as well as on long descents.
