Job description

YOUR MISSION
Build the B2B integration layer of the future and work directly on our core architecture.
YOUR TASKS
This is a unique opportunity for a driven, highly skilled individual who wants to be part of a fast-moving B2B startup from day one. We are looking for experienced software engineers, who want to leverage their expertise to shape our digital infrastructure and take Procuros from the prototype stage to the B2B-integration-layer of the future. This is a greenfield project, meaning that you will have a lot of freedom in designing and working on our core architecture. In doing so, you will be working with data structures and protocols that you likely have never heard of, but your skills and ambition will let you develop creative and unconventional solutions.

Tasks include:

  • Conceptualize our system architecture for core features and new product modules 
  • Solve complex performance problems and architectural challenges
  • Determine the workload and creation of work packages, tasks, and user stories
  • Design, development, and test features and functions 
  • Guide and mentor less experienced team members and help them thrive
  • Ensure your applications are available and reliable
  • Occasionally guide our customers through the integration of the solution you helped to build
YOUR PROFILE
  • You have at least 5 years of experience as a software developer
  • You possess expert knowledge of PHP and Laravel (Queues, Request, Middleware, Cache, Service Containers and Authentication).
  • You have knowledge of SQL (MySQL, Postgres or MariaDB)
  • You are familiar with data structures like XML and JSON
  • You have experience working with RESTful APIs
  • You know how to carry out Testing (Unit, Integration, End-to-End)
  • You have experience with deployment pipelines (CI/CD)
  • You are fluent in English (fluency in German is a plus, but not required) 

Bonus points if

  • You have experience building on cloud infrastructure like (AWS, GCP, Azure)
  • You have knowledge of crafting containerized applications with Docker
  • You have experience with SaaS applications
  • You have prior knowledge working with Laravel tools/packages such as (Laravel Nova, Laravel Horizon, and Laravel Scout)
  • You have knowledge of EDI formats and protocols (EDIFACT, cXML, AS2)
  • You have knowledge of EDI transformations (XSD, XSLT, etc.) 

Other Things We’re Looking For in a Candidate

  • Experience working in an agile (scrum) environment
  • Ability to work in teams and individually
  • Ability to problem solve independently and bring solutions to your own or a team member’s project challenges
WHAT WE OFFER
  • Take ownership and make an impact: At our VC-backed and fast-growing startup, you’ll have the opportunity and are expected to own your projects 110% from day one. We empower you to tackle daring challenges with urgency, find solutions proactively, and shape our journey as we build something incredible together.
  • Be part of something bigger: We win as a team by working towards ambitious goals that we could never achieve alone. At the core of our culture is trust, support, and transparent communication. You’ll join a team that celebrates wins, thrives on feedback, and creates an environment free from egos or drama. Together, we enjoy the journey and value spending time with each other, both inside and outside of work.
  • Focus on what matters: We believe in doing less but better. That’s why we commit to a few high-impact goals and excel at achieving them. You’ll work with clarity and purpose, focusing your energy on the most important outcomes while simplifying and cutting anything that doesn’t align with our vision.
  • Grow, learn, and thrive: For our faster-than-expected execution and adaptability mean continuous learning is essential. With regular feedback, and coaching sessions, we support your personal and professional growth. As our expectations rise, you’ll be challenged to push boundaries and move at an ever-faster pace.
  • There’s more: Enjoy our offices in the heart of Hamburg, Berlin or 100% remote working, flexible working hours and 25 days annual leave. You get an urban sports club sponsorship, and of course free drinks and snacks.



HIRING PROCESS
  • Initial Interview: Here we have a verbal non-technical discussion to see if there is a mutual fit. We'll have questions for you about your skills and background, we'll also answer any questions you have for us about the company, compensation structure, culture, and interview process. 
  • Coding Challenge: You will be asked to solve a coding problem related to our work, so you get an idea of what type of problems we are solving in Procuros, and we can evaluate your technical skills.
  • Deep Dive Interview: In this interview, we will be discussing the solution provided by the coding challenge, discussing some technical aspects, and also answering any questions that you still have.
  • Meet the Team: The final step in the interview process includes one or multiple conversations with our founders Patrick & Ben. Also, you'll be meeting your future colleagues.
