    In this role, you develop an innovative product in the InsurTech sector, shape architectural decisions collaboratively, and work fullstack on features from concept to production deployment.

    Job Technologies

    Your role in the team

    • We are developing a product from scratch – no legacy code, no technical debt. The Greenfield system we are building in the InsurTech sector is used daily by millions of users. With us, you will take on real responsibility from day one: developing your own features, contributing to architecture decisions, and having a direct impact on the live product.
    • In our team, you don't just contribute, but you are involved in shaping from the very beginning. For this reason, we work closely on-site in Hamburg, because whiteboard sessions, technical discussions, short decision-making processes, and direct coordination are part of our daily routine.
    • If you not only understand but also live the difference between "works" and "built correctly," then this is the right environment for you.
    • Your responsibilities include: Shaping from the beginning: You develop a product entirely from scratch. You make architecture decisions together with the team.
    • Fullstack without artificial boundaries: Frontend, Backend, Infrastructure, DevOps. You work across the entire stack and are responsible for features from conception to production deployment.
    • Technical discussions at eye level: code reviews, whiteboard sessions, and direct coordination with product management and executive management are part of your daily routine.
    • Work closely with the product: You understand what lies behind the requirements and develop solutions with technical rigor.
    • Using AI effectively: Cursor, Claude Code, and other tools are an integral part of our developer daily routine — as productive tools that make you faster, but the responsibility for the code remains with you.

    Our expectations of you

    Education

    • Completed degree in Computer Science with excellent grades: Computer Science or a comparable field. Your grades demonstrate how quickly you learn and truly grasp concepts.

    Qualifications

    • Fluent German skills (at least C1): For demanding technical discussions and direct coordination within the team.
    • Solid computer science foundation: You are familiar with and can apply software architecture, data structures, and object-oriented programming.
    • Openness to Tech Stack: Which programming languages you bring with you is secondary. What matters most is that you have a strong foundation and can quickly familiarize yourself with new technologies.
    • Self-motivation: You work in a structured manner, seek feedback when needed, and look for an environment that challenges you and where you can take responsibility.

    Experience

    • Passionate Software Developer: You have developed software beyond university projects — personal projects, side projects, or open source contributions are the strongest signals for us and say more than any cover letter. Up to 2 years of professional experience are welcome.

    What we offer

    • Balance that fits into everyday work life: From Monday to Thursday, we work together in the office, and on Fridays, you can work remotely.
    • We deliberately work on-site at our CHECK24 office in Hamburg, directly on the Außenalster, because direct collaboration, quick coordination, and a genuine team spirit make all the difference for us in everyday work.
    • The best of both worlds: With us, you get the security and stability of an established company - combined with the drive, speed, and creative freedom of a startup.
    • We think long-term and at the same time give you the opportunity to actively shape processes and topics.
    • Modern work with a real future focus - AI-first instead of old school: You work with us using modern technologies and naturally incorporate tools like ChatGPT Enterprise, Claude Code, Cursor.ai, and other AI applications into your daily routine.
    • Top equipment from day 1: A well-equipped, ergonomic workspace with a powerful MacBook, additional monitors, and an adjustable desk.
    • Additional individual equipment such as noise-cancelling headphones or ergonomic mouse? Of course, you will also receive these.
    • Challenging and varied tasks: Look forward to creative freedom, actively shaping processes, and direct communication channels to management.
    • Growth that is truly possible: Our strong growth creates real opportunities to take on responsibility quickly and to develop professionally as well as personally.
    • You have access to individual training and development opportunities as well as a comprehensive training catalog.
    • Developer Experience: A large and unique developer community is excited to meet you!
    • Deeply rooted in Hamburg's tech community, we regularly host various meet-ups, code reviews, and speakers on-site.
    • Strong overall package: In addition to an attractive salary and 28 days of vacation, you will benefit from vouchers for many CHECK24 products, strong support for occupational pension schemes, and very good subsidies for the EGYM Wellpass.
    • Food & Drinks are on the house: Breakfast (a selection of various cereals), lunch, fresh fruit, as well as hot and cold beverages are available to you free of charge all week.
    • In short: You have a lot to take care of – but not your food in the office.
    • Easy & sustainable commuting: Our central location allows you to reach us conveniently by public transport or bicycle.
    • There, you will benefit from a completely free Germany ticket or a subsidy for your company bicycle leasing.
    • CHECKito spirit / Team spirit that is genuine: We work closely together, support each other, and celebrate successes together.
    • Whether it's during lunch, table football, after-work events, or team and company events: we offer a relaxed environment with a casual culture and no dress code.
