Software Engineer - Data (m / f / d)

Hey, You! Nice to meet you!

As the super-platform for non-professional soccer in Europe, we bring pro-level experiences (news, data, gamification) to the mega-community of +190 million footballers and soccer fans.

We are a startup founded in 2021 in Cologne, Germany. Our team consists of smart and \“hungry\“ members working on Prematch in our offices in Cologne and Berlin (Marketing & Business Team) or remotely across Europe (Tech & Product Team).

We are supported by partners like adidas, Krombacher, Flaschenpost and Scalable Capital, but there are still some bangers in the pipeline that you can be excited about! Furthermore, we are supported by successful investors like Ralf Reichert, the CEO of ESL or the entrepreneur Verena Pausder.

Notably, footballers Serge Gnabry and David Raum, as well as the Jürgen Klopp family office, are also invested in Prematch, adding to our stellar support network.

Already a good match if you….

• Location: 100% remote: you’re excited to work either from our office in Cologne or fully remote — whatever suits you best.
• Experience: you have at least 2 years of relevant experience and feel confident in your role.
• You enjoy working in a growing team & startup environment.

… That fits already? Then you should read on!
