Nerdleveltech
We’re looking for a Senior Elixir Fullstack Engineer to join our empowered product team, building simple, elegant software from complex requirements.
This is real product work – meaningful, fast-paced, and focused on impact.
We’re a small, hands‑on team that owns a single product end to end.
Start date: June 1st, 2026 or July 1, 2026.
Tasks
- Build and maintain a high-quality, maintainable codebase written in Elixir with Phoenix, LiveView, TailwindCSS and daisyUI.
- We are building the product in small iterations, we prototype early and often, everyone is encouraged to move forward on their own accord.
- Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and other Engineers to find smart solutions that balance speed, quality, and simplicity.
- Shape our architecture for reliability, scalability, and developer happiness – we’re building a long‑term platform here.
- Build a clean, maintainable and tested codebase.
- Take ownership of privacy and security aspects from the start – encryption, data separation, and GDPR compliance are part of the product, not an afterthought.
- Contribute ideas to improve our development process, stack, and team culture.
Requirements
- You have several years of professional experience as a Fullstack Engineer, ideally with Elixir or another Ruby.
- You care about code quality, but not for its own sake – you balance pragmatism with craftsmanship.
- You love working in small, empowered teams where you can shape not just the product but also how it’s built.
- You come with a product mindset: if something’s unclear, you explore it instead of waiting for perfect specs.
- You understand the basics of GDPR and secure software design and know why that matters.
- You’re curious, reflective, and enjoy learning – including from failed experiments.
- Professional-level English is required; German is a plus.
- You can work remote, but hybrid in Berlin would be ideal – that’s where our product and design team sits.
Nice to have (but not required):
- Experience with handling sensitive data, ideally health-related data.
- Solid understanding of encryption, key management, and data privacy.
- Knowledge of DevOps and hosting environments.
- Familiar with Shape Up as an outcome-driven, autonomy-based approach for agile software development.
Benefits
- A truly empowered product team with freedom to make real decisions.
- A product that’s already live, growing fast, and makes a real difference in people’s lives.
- Ownership and impact from day one – your code will directly improve how social care works in Germany.
- Short decision paths, intense focus, and a healthy pace (we don’t do chaos).
- Mentorship and peer exchange from a highly experienced Elixir developer.
- Flexible hours, hybrid work options, and a trusting culture with open feedback.
- A motivated, kind team that supports each other and celebrates wins.
- Competitive pay, 29+1 days of vacation (including a “sport day”), and an annual learning budget (€1,000) for your own growth.
- The position is also open to part‑time (80%) arrangements.
