What these 30 roles look like right now
The 30 openings on this page come from 26 different employers, and the picture changes as listings are refreshed every six hours — so this is what the market looks like today rather than a description written once.
Where the roles are
20% of these are fully remote; the rest are concentrated in Berlin, London, Paris and Paris Office. Coverage is strongest in Germany and Poland and across fully remote roles, which is where most of the European supply we track sits.
Who is hiring
Currently including Decathlontechnology, grafanalabs, tide and virtual7 GmbH, among 26 employers in total.
Seniority and experience
Most are pitched at senior level. Seniority here is read from the listing itself, not from a filter you set — so a role labelled senior really was advertised that way.
Salary transparency
None of the current listings publish a range. We show a figure only when the employer does; an invented estimate is worse than an honest blank.
How to tell which of these you'd actually get
What an ATS checker sees in your CV
Most applications are read by software before a person sees them. A two-column layout, a header block a parser cannot read, a skills section that never appears as text — none of it looks wrong to you, and all of it changes what the employer receives. Scanning your CV shows the score it gets and every finding behind it, ranked by what each one costs.
Reading a match score
Every listing above gets scored against the skills we extract from your CV — not against keywords you typed in. Each one shows how many of its required skills you already cover and names the ones you do not, so a role you would be filtered out of stops looking like a role worth an evening.
This page is one search. Across every open backend role we track, these are the skills that are actually required.
