Description
You will be working as a Working Student in the Account Compliance & Experience (ACE) team, which is responsible for delivering secure and seamless flows for account lifecycle, relationship, and compliance to customers.
As a Working Student, you will contribute to the development of new backend features across the ACE domain, assist with operational tasks, get hands-on with modern AI-assisted development, and support ongoing tech refactoring efforts.
You will work directly alongside senior engineers, take part in real product development, and gradually build ownership over meaningful parts of our codebase.
The ACE team works within Holidu's broader backend ecosystem, using Java/Kotlin with Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, Redis, and other data stores, as well as AWS services and Jenkins for CI/CD.
You will have the opportunity to attend team planning sessions, architecture discussions, and retrospectives, giving you a real window into how a senior engineering team operates in a high-growth company.
We offer a fair salary, impact, growth, community, flexibility, and fitness opportunities.
You will be required to work ~20 hours per week, with 1-2 days per week in the office in Munich.
You should be currently enrolled in a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field, have a solid understanding of object-oriented programming and basic software design principles, and some hands-on experience with Java or Kotlin.
You should also have familiarity with RESTful APIs and relational databases (SQL), a genuine curiosity for backend systems, and a product-minded attitude.
Excellent communication skills in English are required, and German is a plus but not required.
Bonus points if you have exposure to Spring Boot, cloud platforms (AWS), or any experience with identity/access management concepts.
