Millions of people discover nature with our apps: We help our users find great places and the best routes for cycling and hiking. To help us continue to do so, we are looking for a passionate backend engineer to build the future of outdoor guides with us—and to inspire people to explore more of the great outdoors every day. As a lean startup, we aim for impact and look for pragmatic solutions based on the latest infrastructure and platforms. As komoot’s next backend engineer, you know the importance of self-healing and scaling systems, you build your software stack accordingly—and you always find simple solutions to complex problems.

-Are fluent in Kotlin or Java and interested in other languages, such as Python or JavaScript.
