Donât see your perfect role?
Donât see your perfect role? Apply anyway. Weâre not just hiring people who fit roles. We look for great people and then make roles fit.
Planning to apply?
Great. Hereâs what you can expect: After you submit your application, weâll typically do an initial screening call and then ask you to complete a sample project. Weâll invite you to one, two, or even more interviews, and maybe a day at our office so we can get to know each other better. If youâre happy with us, and weâre happy with you, weâll make you an offer.
Our values arenât just words on our web page. We live them every day.
A New Kind of Work
We strive to create an environment where everyone can flourish, both inside and outside the workplace. Hereâs how we do it.
Cross-Functional
Teams are made up of designers, product managers, developers, support agents, marketers, etc. to bring the right mix of expertise and experience to the table so everyone can see the big picture.
Self-Organization
Teams at K15t have the responsibility of managing their own tasks. As stated in the Agile Manifesto: âThe best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.â
Agile
Short feedback cycles, rapid decision-making, and embracing change is more important to us than whether we call it Scrum, Kanban, or XP.
Open Work
Be open minded, listen to each other, respect other opinions, and collectively find the best solutions.
Feedback Culture
We donât just believe in collaboration, we live it. Our teams work together through code reviews, inline comments, pair programming, daily standups, one-on-ones, 360-degree feedback, etc.
Safe to Fail
Trying something new means risking failure. No problem â fix it, learn from it, share it with others, and use the experience to succeed in your next project.
Open work environment
The lack of physical barriers help us collaborate freely. We keep voices low in the work space and foster conversations through dedicated meeting spaces.
Meeting spaces
Whether itâs in the kitchen or on a couch, weâve created room for spontaneous conversations that donât require a formal meeting space.
Stuttgart
Weâre based here. We love the city for so many reasons: industrious but green, urban yet residential, local and international.
Benefits and Perks
Alongside a great team, interesting projects, and a stunning work environment, we offer some extras.
Work from Everywhere
Weâre champions of remote work and offer this option when it suits your team and daily tasks.
Receive a Fair Share
We share 10% of our annual profit before interest and taxes with our employees.
Dedicated Innovation Time
We host thrice-yearly 24-hour hackathons in our office. Everyone is free to join and bring their dream project to life.
Continuous Learning
We cover employee costs for visiting one or more work-related conference per year, offer personal and technical trainings, and host frequent lunch and learn-sessions.
Paid Volunteer Time
Everyone at K15t gets the opportunity to give back, whether itâs cleaning the forest or helping feed the homeless.
Family Friendly
We provide fair working hours, cover childcare costs, and understand that there are times when your family needs you more than we do.
Free Food & Drinks
You canât do a good job when youâre hungry. Thatâs why we offer free drinks, fruit, and lunch in case youâre working from our office in Stuttgart
Equipment You Love
Excellent work starts with the right tools. Some of our favorite equipment includes a MacBook Pro, innovative software, and a HĂ G Capisco chair is waiting for you in our office in Stuttgart.
Bike to Work
K15t leases a JobRad to save you 30-40% costs compared to buying directly. You ride it whenever you want: to work, in your everyday life, during the holidays or during sports.
Using innovative technologies helps us accomplish amazing results.
Tech That Makes Us Tick
Slack, Zoom
We use chat and video conferencing tools to connect team members who arenât sitting in the same room or location. We try to use email as a last resort.
Tech That Makes Us Tick
Confluence, Jira Software
We love our collaboration tools. They keep the team up-to-date and foster conversation around work, asynchronously. No need to book a meeting; just add a comment and everyone is on the same page.
Tech That Makes Us Tick
IntelliJ, Webstorm
Developers spend most of the day in their IDE. Itâs important they use the tool they love most. We love IntelliJ, but embrace whateverâs needed to get the job done.
Tech That Makes Us Tick
Bamboo, Bitbucket, Nexus
Every code change is peer-reviewed and each merge runs through a suite of automated tests. We use tools to collaborate and automatically check our software to make sure functionality and quality are up to our standards.
Tech That Makes Us Tick
React, Java/Spring, AWS
Front-end and back-end technologies change rapidly these days. We like building with new technologies that can help us move forward faster as well as those long standing technologies that have a record of performance and reliability.
Tech That Makes Us Tick
Adobe, Figma
We want to make sure we make a great first impression. We use tools that help us rapidly sketch and discuss design ideas before diving into the details.
