We are smava – the online loan comparison platform. We make loans transparent, fair and affordable! With more than 300.000 satisfied customers, we are one of the biggest FinTech companies in Germany. Become a part of our vision to shape the digital future of the consumer loan market now!

Our Development teams are distributed along the customer journey, each being completely in charge of their corresponding part of the platform and respective services and systems. They operate in a vastly autonomous and self-managed way: we live up to our belief in flat hierarchies and self-organized network structures where leadership happens in a lateral manner and teams are enabled to make their own decisions within our exciting roadmap. This empowers everyone to a great extent - by sharing responsibility and decision-making amongst all colleagues.

YOUR NEW TEAM

We are looking for a Professional to Senior Software Engineer to join our Offers and Checkout team. Our mission is to empower loan customers through effortless and transparent digital services that are trustworthy and self-serve. We strive to provide a seamless experience from deciding for a loan to formalizing the checkout process, ensuring our customers feel confident and in control every step of the way. We are organized in a cross-functional team with FE, FS, BE, QA and Design roles working closely with our Product Owner and stakeholders.
