SOLUTION ARCHITECT
(all genders)

We are looking for a Solution Architect in Berlin or fully remote to assist our teams at the earliest possible date.

Our Agency

We deliver software that drives value creation. Our teams develop digital platforms, implement trailblazing projects with blockchain technology and accelerate supply chain automation through IoT. For each project, we develop a joint vision and an ideal implementation strategy together with our clients and partners. And then? We get to work building the right technological solution.

We are experts in platform models and deliver suitable technologies for every project – whether for marketplaces that bring together many users in different roles, B2B procurement platforms that map large assortments and product data volumes or service platforms that establish completely new usage models. We excel at combining technologies and are proud of our reputation: We are the ones who get things done.

Our Solution Architects

Our Solution Architects are building bridges between business requirements and technical implementation. In this way, they are helping our clients to develop a clearly defined project vision from a first sketch.

When it comes to developing an overall technical concept from fragmented individual ideas, our Solution Architects start to get going. They gather information from all parties involved, structure it logically and process it visually – in tables and sketches – to help our clients make the best decision. Their prior experience with transactional platforms helps them develop solutions to specific problems within complex business processes.

Our Solution Architects are comfortable on the business side of the product as well as in the sphere of technical implementation. They are always up-to-date when it comes to new technologies in the areas of e-commerce and transactional platforms. Therefore, they like to familiarize themselves quickly with new issues according to the motto: You don't have to know everything, but you have to know where to find it! If they see an issue along the way, they like to come up with a solution, to defend it and to trust their instinct.

Our Tech Stack

Our passion is E-Commerce, SaaS solutions and transactional platforms, as marketplaces and service platforms.

Using PHP and Typescript, we rely on frameworks like Spryker, Symfony, API-Platform, Laravel, Next.js or Nuxt plus the latest JS framework of the month. We sometimes use platforms like Oro, Shopify, GraphCMS or Commercetools in order to keep from having to solve tasks that have already been solved. Backend-wise there are a lot of resources to cover - no one has mastered them all but here’s a list of the most commonly used: Elasticsearch, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Kafka and Cassandra.

Our development and deployment cycle is built around GitLab, Docker and Kubernetes, which we use in accordance with the principle of Continuous Integration. Our PHP coders work with the most modern paradigms out there, including automated acceptance tests, linting and strict typing, not to mention that our code bases tightly adhere to SOLID and clean code principles. Our node.js related projects rely on libraries like express.js, Nest or Fastify and are preferably written in Typescript. Last but not least we’re driving projects utilizing the web3 stack, which makes some of us familiar with Solidity smart contracts, gRPC APIs and decentralised file systems.

To visualize these complex systems our Solution Architects are using tools like Miro, Adobe Suite, Keynote, Pitch and others.

Still, nothing is set in stone. Win us over with a new approach and we’ll change course.

Our Workflow

We give you room for creativity. Make project or development recommendations, take the initiative and assume responsibility. That’s how code libraries, new processes and a company spin-off in Portugal all came to be. Work-life balance isn’t just a buzzword for us. Some of us love our four-day work week, while others prefer to work fully remotely from home or on an island. You can become the designer of your own agency if you use the freedom to fill this space.

We work in interdisciplinary Scrum and Kanban teams, which are always arranged based on the project and each have their own specific freedoms. As a result, we are agile, flexible and facilitate the best solution, not the ego. We believe nothing is better than working in a team. Our pair or even mob programming as a standard proves it.

We offer money for work, help for problems, drinks for thirst and recognition for success.

So let’s go and become a part of our team.
