Your role in the team

  • We develop custom web applications, CMS solutions, platforms, and digital tools - from conception through design and development to hosting and support.
  • As a small, experienced team, we work with short communication channels, direct exchange, and clear responsibilities.
  • For our projects, we are looking for an experienced professional with a focus on PHP backend, JavaScript, and databases.
  • You contribute technically to the design of web applications, further develop them, and also keep an eye on deployment, hosting, and stable operation.
  • With us, you don't work on an anonymous component, but take responsibility for complete web applications - from backend logic and interfaces to databases, deployment, and operations.
  • It's not just about new features.
  • Refactoring, updates, traceable documentation, and continuous improvement of existing systems are also an integral part of our work.
  • You bring in your experience, contribute to technical decisions, and ensure that our applications remain stable, secure, performant, and maintainable in the long term.
  • Development and maintenance of custom web applications, CMS-based solutions, and digital platforms.
  • Backend development with PHP, databases, interfaces, APIs, modules, and system extensions.
  • Further development of existing applications including refactoring, updates, performance optimization, and technical modernization.
  • Contributing to JavaScript components and frontend-related functions, depending on project requirements.
  • Support with hosting and operational topics such as Linux, web servers, deployments, SSL, backups, monitoring, logs, and databases.
  • Analysis of technical issues as well as structured troubleshooting in ongoing operations.
  • Participation in shaping technical standards, code quality, and meaningful development processes within the team.

Our expectations of you

Qualifications

  • Excellent knowledge of PHP, object-oriented development, SQL, and relational databases.
  • Solid understanding of the operation of web applications, for example with Linux, Apache/Nginx, Git, SSH, deployments, logs, SSL certificates, and database administration.
  • Structured, autonomous working style, quality awareness, and German language skills for secure communication within the team and in projects.
  • What matters most is that you are confident in the PHP backend, understand technical contexts, and enjoy familiarizing yourself with new topics.

Experience

  • Several years of relevant experience in professional web development, ideally with responsibility for web applications or backend systems.
  • Proficient in JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, with experience in common PHP frameworks or CMS systems.
  • Experience with topics such as Docker, CI/CD, automated testing, Vue.js/TypeScript, REST/GraphQL, Headless CMS, Solr, monitoring, or cloud hosting is helpful but not mandatory.

What we offer

  • Flexible working hours and hybrid work model with up to 3 days of remote work per week.
  • A permanent position with long-term prospects.
  • 30 days of vacation per year for a 5-day workweek.
  • Fully employer-funded company pension scheme after the probation period - in addition to salary and without personal contribution.
  • Predictable working hours; assignments outside regular working hours are the exception and will be compensated.
  • Sophisticated web applications instead of interchangeable standard pages.
  • Modern hardware and a professional development environment.
  • Professional development budget for technical literature, courses, conferences, or certifications.
