Join a well-established software company with over 40 years of success in building innovative solutions for retail, wholesale, and distribution.
Their in-house software platform supports more than 35,000 users and is developed by a talented R&D team that’s now modernising their architecture and exploring cloud-native technologies.
They’re looking for a Software Architect who can take a strategic view of the system, provide hands‑on technical leadership, and grow into a Director of Engineering role over time.
Your role
* Design and evolve the software architecture, helping shape the transition toward modern, cloud‑based systems
* Lead and mentor a small, experienced development team
* Support complex customer integrations and 3rd‑level technical issues
* Oversee CI/CD and help improve development and deployment workflows
Your profile
* Strong background in software development (ideally Java / Spring Boot)
* Solid understanding of modern software architectures, microservices, and cloud environments (e.g. Kubernetes, Docker, AWS/Azure)

Why apply?
* Work in a stable, product‑focused company with an R&D culture
* Help modernise a large‑scale system used by thousands of businesses
* Hybrid setup: the team lives in the Heidelberg region and mostly works from home, meeting in the office when needed
