Job Summary

In this role, you design solution architectures, evaluate project requests, develop prototypes, and present compellingly to clients. You closely collaborate with Business Development and Engineering, ensuring smooth handovers to other teams.

Job Technologies

Your role in the team

  • You design solution architectures for pitches and tenders and present them to clients; clearly, for technical and non-technical audiences alike.
  • You build prototypes when a concept needs to become tangible.
  • You evaluate incoming requests: What's feasible? What does it realistically cost? Where does AI add value and where doesn't it.
  • You work closely with Business Development and the engineering team, set priorities, sharpen proposals, and make sure concept and deliverability actually match.
  • And you ensure clean handovers of won projects to the delivery team.

Our expectations of you

Qualifications

  • Open source isn't an ideology to you - it's part of how you work.
  • Excellent German and English, written and spoken - in client conversations as much as in pitches.
  • You have opinions and the confidence to stand by them, with clients as much as internally.
  • You can make complex architectures understandable in pitches, in tenders, in internal discussions and you do it convincingly, in writing and in person, in German and in English.
  • AI integration in real client projects.

Experience

  • Several years of experience in software development or system architecture.
  • You think in systems, not in individual tools, and you have the project experience to know how software development really works.
  • Experience with headless and API-first architectures, CRM integration, or marketing automation.
  • Experience in regulated industries such as pharma or the public sector.
  • Pitch and tender experience on the agency or consulting side.

What we offer

  • Right now, 90%+ of our projects are Drupal-based.
  • The transformation towards becoming a platform and ecosystem partner is underway - but it isn't finished.
  • That means you'll encounter legacy Drupal in the existing portfolio and build the future in pitches.
  • A significant part of the work is genuinely understanding what's there before you start changing it.
  • The role sits within the Business Development team, but it delivers substance - not just storytelling.
  • If your last few years have been mostly slide-building without designing or building anything yourself, you'll notice quickly.
  • This is what our clients want: they can tell within the first hour whether someone has actually made real decisions.
  • Volkan and Stephan are the technical founders, and they remain so.
  • You'll have real creative latitude - and two people behind you who have been building software for 20 years.
