Damit stellst du sicher, dass unsere Plattform für über 100 Millionen Nutzer täglich reibungslos läuft.

Du schließt die Lücke zwischen unserer Technologie und der Vision des Partners. Dabei genießt du volle technische Freiheit: Mit direktem Zugriff auf unsere gesamte Cloud-Infrastruktur – von Real-Time-Monitoring bis hin zu unseren Data Lakes – behältst du den Systemstatus immer im Blick. Ob du tief in Architekturfragen eintaucht oder hochperformante Features konzipiert: Du sorgst für das perfekte Zusammenspiel unserer Systeme. Als strategisches Bindeglied zu unseren internen Produkt- und Tech-Teams bist du die starke Stimme für unsere größten Enterprise-Kunden.

Was du tun wirst
  • Technische Strategie & Umsetzung: Du gestaltest die technische Roadmap unserer Partner, entwickelst neue Lösungen direkt mit ihnen und stellst durch Praxistests sicher, dass alles reibungslos läuft, bevor der große Rollout startet
  • Koordination der gemeinsamen Roadmap: Du begleitest den gesamten technischen Produktlebenszyklus unserer Partnerschaften, koordinierst den Rollout komplexer Features und steuerst die technischen Integrationen
  • Ursachenanalyse und proaktive Risikominderung: Du gehst bei der Fehlerbehebung tief unter die Oberfläche, um Integrationsprobleme durch eine gründliche Ursachenanalyse frühzeitig zu finden und zu lösen, bevor sie den Umsatz unserer Partner gefährden
  • Datengestützte Beratung: Du nutzt SQL und Python (oder andere), um komplexe Datensätze zu aggregieren und zu visualisieren und Rohdaten in technische Narrative zu übersetzen, die Partnern helfen, ihre KPIs zu erreichen

    • Tech-Architekt: Du übersetzt high-level-Anforderungen mühelos in präzise Spezifikationen. Dabei bist du fachlich breit aufgestellt: Vom Deep Dive in die SDK-Initialisierung und REST-Latenzen mit dem Product Owner bis hin zum eigenhändigen Debugging von HTML/JavaScript

    • Daten & Analyse: Du liebst Daten und beherrschst SQL sowie Visualisierungen aus dem Effeff. Mit Dashboards wie Grafana, Tableau oder Kibana findest du nicht nur das „Warum“ hinter den Zahlen, sondern leitest daraus direkt strategische Entscheidungen ab

    • Mobile-Expertise (Plus): Du bringst Java-Kenntnisse oder Erfahrung in der mobilen App-Entwicklung mit. SDK-Integrationsprobleme löst du fast schon instinktiv

    Tips & Tricks to Nail Your Interviews!

    mail

    Skip cover letters!

    Since we want to keep everything fast and easy for you, we don’t want you to waste time on a cover letter – we would rather take a look at your CV and if it’s a match, we directly invite you to a chat.
    done_all

    Check your equipment

    Test your internet connection, camera, mic, and speakers beforehand. Time for each interview is limited, and we’d like to spend as much of it as possible on getting to know each other. If the interview is online, always have your camera on! It’s way easier to create a meaningful interaction if we also see each other.
    manage_search

    Do some research!

    We will give you all the information about the role & company’s culture, but it’s always nice to see how you perceive us after doing some online detective work 😉

    Prepare an elevator pitch

    We will certainly ask you to briefly summarize your work experiences in a short overview. Think of what you’re going to say beforehand so you can fit all of the essential information in 2-3 minutes. Keep the goal of the interview in mind, and make sure everything you say is relevant to the position you’re applying for.
    fact_check

    Structure your answers

    Be specific, but don´t get caught up in details – following the STAR method can help you: Situation (set the scene and give the necessary details of your example), Task (describe what your responsibility was in that situation), Action (explain exactly what steps you took to address it), Result (share what outcomes your actions achieved).

    Let your personality shine

    It is a recruiting process, but this doesn’t mean you can’t loosen up and showcase your personality. We are looking for an authentic character and we are open to having some small talk or a funny joke thrown into the mix. This might even show us that you’re a good cultural fit. Remember, we like to have fun!
    live_help

    Be prepared with questions

    At the end of the interview, we will ask you whether you have any questions for us. Use this time to get answers to all your questions or clear out any curiosities. Always have two or three questions prepared, whether about the position specifically or about career development, upcoming projects, or organizational culture.

    Don’t be afraid of rescheduling

    Even if you’ve already scheduled an interview, urgent things might pop up in your schedule or you might not feel fit to attend the interview. We are all human & we treat these situations with empathy. It´s better to reschedule rather than not be 100% up to attend the interview. Simply communicate the change with your TA Manager and we will find a common solution.

    Read Relocation Article
    “Unlike other companies, justDice/applike was there for me from the beginning. After signing the offer, I got comprehensive support in getting my visa, finding a temporary apartment in Hamburg & covering travel expenses for my whole family. All of this made our relocation significantly easier and more enjoyable.”
    “Relocating to Hamburg with my family of four was a significant undertaking, but applike’s comprehensive support made the transition smooth and stress-free. From arranging our family’s transfer to assisting with residence permits, Applike’s thorough planning and financial backing ensured we felt welcomed and settled in our new home from day one.”
    “Relocating to another country is challenging, but applike group made the process significantly smoother by providing comprehensive support: from handling paperwork to offering a relocation allowance.”
    “My relocation process was supposed to be quick and easy yet we stumbled across delays from the embassy. So, the People team was extremely helpful, providing us with all necessary support with documentation, appointments, and processes; all in order to speed up the process and make sure we get to Germany as fast and as easily as possible.”
    “Moving to Hamburg was a breeze thanks to adjoe/applike. They managed every detail, from flights to accommodation, and their thorough support made me feel valued even before starting my new role. The entire experience was smooth and memorable, making my transition to this beautiful city unforgettable.”

    Recruiting FAQs

    Frequently asked questions
    How long does your recruiting process take?

    We aim to make our recruiting process as fast and efficient as possible, but the duration can vary depending on the role you are applying for. Usually we are really fast, though (less than 4 weeks).

    Can I apply for more than one role?

    Yes, if you see multiple roles open that match your skill set, you can apply for them simultaneously. Our Talent Acquisition team will review your application and contact you about the role that best seems to match your skills. 

    Can I apply for multiple companies within applike group?

    Yes, if you see multiple roles that match your skill set, you can apply for them simultaneously. Our Talent Acquisition team will review your application and contact you about the role that best matches your skills.

    I just handed in my application, what are the next steps?

    Great! Please allow a few days for our team to review your application. We will contact you with the next steps as soon as possible.

    How is AI used for the recruitment process?

    As part of our hiring process, we may use an AI Notetaker tool to transcribe and summarize interviews. This enables our hiring teams to focus fully on candidates and ensures a fair and well-documented selection process.

    This tool joins interviews as a silent participant and generates a transcript and factual notes. Only those directly involved in the hiring process will have access to this data, which is stored securely and deleted after 6 months.

    Candidates are informed in advance, given the option to opt out, and opting out does not impact the outcome of the application.

    How do I know I’m really being contacted by someone from applike group?

    We’ll never ask you for money, fees, or sensitive information (like bank details, tax forms, or credit card numbers) during the hiring process.
    If anything feels off, you can always double-check by reaching out to our Talent Acquisition team at ta@applike-group.com.
    Once you’ve signed your contract, our HR team may request personal details, but only from our official email: hr@applike-group.com.

    How do I know if the job I want to apply to is legitimate?

    To ensure you are applying for a genuine position, we recommend verifying the opening on our official careers pages (applike, adjoe, etc.). If you prefer, feel free to submit your application directly through our site rather than third-party platforms.

    Do I need to be located in Germany to be able to apply for your jobs?

    No, we do provide full visa and relocation support. 

    Do you help with my relocation?

    We do! You can find more information about our relocation support and the succesful relocation of our colleagues here on this website.

    What if I want to relocate together with my family?

    No problem! Our visa and relocation support does also include your partner or kids. (Please be aware that legal marriage is often times a requirement to obtain a partner-visa).

    Can I work remotely?

    If you prefer 100% remote companies, applike is not the right place for you because we strongly believe in face-to-face collaboration. However, we did implement a hybrid working model where we are in the office at least three days a week (Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday) and can work remotely the remaining two days. Additionally, you get three whole weeks per year to work fully remotely if you want.

    What does hybrid working and flexible working hours mean?

    Our hybrid working approach involves being in the office at least three days a week (Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday) and the option to work remotely the remaining two days. Flexible working hours mean that we work Monday-Friday, but do not have fixed working hours. Just make sure to adapt to the rhythm of your team.

    Where is your main-office located?

    The headquarters of the applike group and all its subsidiaries are located in Hamburg, Germany. We do have offices in the US and APAC.

    What is so great about your office?

    Well next to the fact that you are able to see and collaborate with your colleagues face-to-face, we have a super modern office that leave no wishes open: from Drinks & Snack, areas to work away from your desk to a fully equiped gym.

    Can I really bring my dog to the office?

    Yes, you can!

    Couldn’t find the perfect job offer?

    Nevermind! We are always interested to get in touch with new talents.
