Your role in the team
- You’ll develop the next generation of our cloud-based payroll solution and immerse yourself in one of the most exciting and technically challenging domains in the German software market.
- At Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting, we develop a product that tax advisors and businesses across Germany rely on month after month to ensure accurate payroll, taxes, and filings.
- You’ll be dealing with hundreds of payroll types, constantly changing legislation, and complex reporting procedures such as DEÜV, ELSTER, and DaBPV.
- What matters to us is not that you already have this expertise, but that you enjoy delving into complex topics, developing modern software solutions, and exploring new approaches with tools like Claude Code and GitHub Copilot.
- You work in a team of developers, business analysts, and test automation specialists.
- We work in shared sprints, regularly do pair programming and tech demos, and we don’t just try out AI tools—we actively use them in our day-to-day development work and deliberately integrate them into our products.
- You familiarize yourself with complex tax and social security requirements and work with subject matter experts to translate them into robust software solutions.
- You develop full-stack features using Kotlin and Spring Boot on the backend and React on the frontend.
- You use AI tools such as Claude Code and GitHub Copilot as an integral part of your daily development work and help us further expand the interplay between AI and software development.
- You contribute to architecture and design decisions, challenge ideas constructively, and help develop solutions that build consensus.
- You ensure high quality through test-driven development, clean code, and a keen eye for security issues in web applications.
