Full-Stack Engineer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Germany.

📋 Description

• Conceptualization and development of applications across the entire stack within the ARD universe – from API design to the finished interface.

• You design and implement scalable microservices in the appropriate programming language and with modern frameworks (e.g., Java with Spring Boot or Quarkus, Go, C#, Typescript).

• You create modern, high-performance, and accessible frontends using React, Next.js, and Typescript.

• Together with the team, you conceptualize and decide on meaningful system architectures for data exchange, caching, and transformation, as well as thoughtful state management concepts in the frontend.

• You work with containerized applications based on Docker and Kubernetes, supporting their operation and further development.

• Development, maintenance, and use of interfaces (e.g., REST, GraphQL).

• You actively participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and architectural decisions.

• Identification and implementation of improvements regarding performance, reliability, accessibility, and maintainability of existing systems.

⛳️ Requirements

• Several years of professional experience (5+ years) as a Software, Full-Stack, or Backend Developer.

• You have core competencies in at least two modern programming languages (e.g., Java, Go, C#, Typescript, Python) and are comfortable learning a different language as needed.

• Solid experience across the entire stack: modern backend frameworks in production environments on one side, and frontend development with React, Typescript, HTML, CSS, and Tailwind on the other.

• Experience with modern state management and a good sense for clean, maintainable frontend code.

• Accessibility (WCAG) is not an afterthought for you, but an integral part of your work.

• Proficient with container technologies: Docker and Kubernetes are your daily tools.

• Experience with at least one hyperscaler, ideally GCP.

• Experience with on-premise applications is an advantage.

• You master at least one common API paradigm such as REST(-ful) or GraphQL.

• You are familiar with caching mechanisms and cache invalidation.

• The following are standard for you: test development (both backend and frontend, e.g., with Jest, Vitest, or Playwright), mocking frameworks, build tools (e.g., Maven, Gradle, MSBuild, Go Modules, npm).

• Queues, message brokers, or stream processing are not foreign to you.

• You bring openness to work in different project teams as needed and demonstrate self-reliance and strong personal responsibility.

• You are a team player – you enjoy sharing your knowledge, providing constructive feedback, and value close collaboration in an interdisciplinary team.

• Your German proficiency should be at least at level C1.

• Education: Computer Science, Business Informatics, or a comparable qualification – or equivalent professional experience.

🏝️ Benefits

• An unlimited employment contract with 31 days of vacation.

• Plenty of room for your own ideas and professional development.

• Diversity and equal opportunities.

• Participation in further education based on your personal interests and goals.
