Engineers who care about impact.
We are small, we intend to stay small, and we work deeply. No sales pressure, no utilisation target above 75 %, no 60-slide decks. If you want your work judged on whether it works - so do we.
Five things we do differently.
One lead per project.
You work directly with the client, not through several layers of consultants. No setup where juniors do the work and seniors present it.
Transparent salaries.
Levelling by seniority, visible internally. Being a good negotiator does not earn you more than not being one.
One client, one project.
No juggling several engagements in parallel. You have the attention it takes to actually understand the thing in depth.
Time for depth.
Every week has protected time for your own research, deeper technical work and internal tooling. People who are permanently on fire in client work do not build good systems.
Bilingual day to day.
Our clients are German-speaking; our internal documents and tools are bilingual. We expect professional fluency in both German and English.
