Our engineering organization is remote-first. You can decide whether you work from home, at our headquarters in Stuttgart or at one of our design offices in Germany.

The Team

The data team is in charge of all functionality related with preparing and processing data from various sources and make it available to our system. The responsibilities range from aggregating data, processing it, creating/enhancing search mechanisms, implementing features for comparison against unstructured data and generate statistical insights. We’re running on a modern tech stack using Kotlin. We are looking for people who want to continuously improve, learn and share their knowledge with others.

A plus but not needed

• Experience programming with Kotlin
• Being comfortable building complex software systems, even without Spring (boot)
• Knowledge of non-relational databases (MongoDB)
• Experience in developing search engines with tools such as ElasticSearch
• Have worked with a cloud service-based infrastructure (either AWS, GCP or Azure)

What we can offer you

• A remote-first company, where you can decide every day whether you work from home, at our headquarters in Stuttgart or at one of our Design Offices in Germany
• A competitive salary with an equity package as well as a permanent full-time contract
• Freely choose the hardware you need to work
• Software licenses for IntelliJ Idea
• An annual training budget that you can invest in training, conferences, or professional coaching
• In Germany: A subsidized job bike to escape city traffic and a Wellpass gym membership to stay active
• A dynamic start-up atmosphere and an international team in which new ideas, creative approaches, and cooperation at eye level are valued

At SPARETECH, we believe in equal opportunities for every human. No matter where you are from, what you think, what you believe in, what gender you are, or who you love.
