Description

TRANSFORM THE FOUNDATION OF XENTRAL’S SAAS PLATFORM!

At Xentral, we’re on a mission to power growing businesses with smart, scalable software. As a Senior Software Engineer on our Platform team, you’ll help shape the critical services that drive product-wide capabilities such as authentication, communication, payments, and security. You’ll be hands-on with complex challenges—from tackling technical debt in a legacy monolith to scaling performant microservices that serve thousands of users daily.
You’ll be part of the first team at Xentral to start the transition to microservices and take ownership of multiple critical systems. If you’re excited about building stable foundations, optimizing performance, and improving product quality with a customer-focused mindset, we’d love to hear from you.

ABOUT US

We are an established tech startup with major tech investors Sequoia Capital and Visionaries Club on our side. We are aiming at defining a new SaaS category and empower entrepreneurs and e-commerce vendors to automate their resource planning and focus on the things that matters most to them: their business.
We grow all over Europe, join us fully remote or in one of our hubs in Augsburg, Amsterdam, Berlin, Munich and Lohne (Oldenburg). You decide!

Responsibilities
  • You develop and maintain backend systems using PHP (Laravel), taking ownership of critical domains like authentication, email, CRM, and API security
  • You improve system performance by identifying bottlenecks across our monolith and microservices, with a deep focus on stability and scalability
  • You write and maintain automated tests (PHP Unit, Behat) and support QA in Playwright test integration to ensure platform-wide quality and confidence
  • You modernize outdated systems—including legacy PHP, Vanilla JavaScript, and jQuery—while steadily reducing technical debt with a hands-on, solution-oriented approach
  • You zoom out to design solutions that prioritize customer experience and business impact, collaborating closely with engineers, QA, and product teams
