Software Architect – R&D, Java, Cloud - Heidelberg - €100,000
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 its 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)
* Patient, structured, and curious – the environment is complex and takes time to master
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
