Team Lead – Back End

Team Lead - Back End

Karlsruhe, Germany

I am recruiting for a Green energy Startup, based in Karlsruhe. They offer a real time grid monitoring product, a solution for Germany’s energy lifecycle. They have over 30 million data points daily. The aim is to prepare their systems for 1 billion data points per day.

They grew from 8 to 38 people in the last 2 years, and are aiming to hire 10 developers next year ideally – with more of a focus on software development, to take them to the next level. They are looking for a People Centric Team Lead for their backend Team, who enjoys mentoring engineers and helping them grow. Twice a week in their office in Karlsruhe.

What to expect:

The primary languages have been Kotlin and Java, but moving forward, all new services will be developed in Go, with some Python. You’ll play a pivotal role in shaping how this transition unfolds. From defining the team structure and processes to selecting the language stack, driving team growth, and designing the architecture—this role offers a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact. It’s a leadership position with significant decision-making responsibilities, while still allowing you to stay hands-on with coding. You’ll have a real voice in shaping the direction of the business.

Perks:

  • 30 days of holiday
  • Strong performance bonus
  • Super modern office in the heart of Karlsruhe
  • Travel Allowance

Requirements:

  • People or Tech Leadership Experience
  • Experience in Golang, Python, Kotlin or Java
  • German speaking
