Your role in the team

  • Development with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central: You develop and maintain our Business Central extensions in AL. This includes fields, pages, reports, codeunits, and event subscribers, which you implement cleanly in extensions and in accordance with Microsoft best practices.
  • Error analysis & troubleshooting: You analyze errors and support cases from day-to-day operations directly in the code, identify the root causes, and develop sustainable solutions instead of short-term workarounds.
  • Code comprehension & further development: You familiarize yourself with existing code, document how it works, and help us simplify legacy customizations or replace them with Microsoft standard functionality.
  • Deployment & Version Control: You support our deployment process from the sandbox to the production environment (DEV *TEST* Release Candidate * PROD), working with Git, GitHub, and AL-Go.
  • Updates & Quality Assurance: You support the preparation of version updates, review breaking changes, adapt existing extensions, and conduct regression tests together with our key users.
  • Interface development: You contribute to the development and maintenance of interfaces, for example via API pages and web services, as well as to data exchange with PIM, EDI, and business intelligence systems.
  • Documentation & Collaboration: You work in a structured way with Jira, handle clearly defined tickets, and document your changes and solutions in Confluence.

Our expectations of you

Education

  • Education: You have completed vocational training as an IT specialist in application development, hold a degree in (business) informatics, or have an equivalent background.
  • Initial development experience: Ideally, you have gained some initial experience with AL and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central—for example, through your training, an internship, a working student position, or personal projects. Alternatively, you have a solid foundation in another programming language such as C#, Java, or TypeScript and are highly motivated to learn AL.

Qualifications

  • Technical understanding: You have a basic understanding of relational databases, transactions, and posting logic, or are motivated to develop an in-depth understanding of ERP processes.
  • Development tools: You have already worked with Git and feel comfortable using Visual Studio Code (VS Code).
  • Quality-consciousness: You want to understand why something happens before making changes, and you value thoroughly testing your code before it goes into production.
  • Communication and teamwork skills: In addition to your professional expertise, you have strong communication skills and a collaborative spirit.
  • Independent working style: Your conscientious and self-directed approach makes you a reliable member of our team.
  • Language skills: You have very good German skills and good written and spoken English, particularly for working with Microsoft documentation and international ISV partners.

Experience

  • An advantage: You have already obtained a Microsoft certification (e.g., MB-820) or gained initial experience with the Power Platform, Power BI, EDI, or AI-powered development tools.

What we offer

  • Hands-on onboarding with mentoring: You’ll receive structured onboarding and be supported by an experienced Business Central developer. Step by step, you’ll progress from your first bug fix to developing your own features and eventually building extensions independently.
  • Modern development environment: You can expect a state-of-the-art toolchain with Business Central SaaS, Visual Studio Code, GitHub with AL-Go, Jira, and Confluence.
  • Work on real business processes: Our production environment offers you exciting insights into the day-to-day operations of medium-sized companies—from batch management and best-before dates to production and scanner processes, as well as EDI interfaces. Here, you’ll get to know Business Central in all its functional depth.
  • Flexible working hours: We know that work-life balance is important. That’s why we offer flexible working hours to help you balance your professional and personal needs.
  • Performance-based salary: Your performance should be rewarded. We offer an attractive, performance-based salary that recognizes your achievements.
  • Excellent transport links and company parking: Easily reach our centrally located office by public transport or enjoy the convenience of our company parking.
  • Deutschlandticket: If you travel by public transport, we’d be happy to cover part of the cost of your Deutschlandticket.
  • 30 days of vacation: To ensure you have enough time to recharge and pursue your personal interests, we offer generous vacation time.
  • A strong team: We value every individual on our team and are delighted to welcome each new member. Together, we are strong!
  • Room for innovation: We encourage you to put innovative ideas into practice and explore new approaches. We give you the freedom to be creative and take ownership.
  • Flat hierarchies: We value short decision-making processes and open communication. Every opinion matters here.
  • Catering: Enjoy complimentary coffee, water, and a freshly prepared hot lunch, made fresh every day by our in-house chefs.
  • Well-Pass: Your health matters to us. With the Well-Pass, you get access to an extensive network of fitness and sports activities.
  • Lease a bike: Take the opportunity to lease a bike and support not only your health but also the environment.
  • Individual contributions toward your company pension plan (BAV) and capital-forming benefits (VWL): We support you in securing your financial future.
