Software Engineer - Processing of Content & Conditions (gn)

Want to shape the future of procurement? At Unite, we’ve been working for over 25 years to make purchasing in the private and public sectors efficient, sustainable and compliant. We offer organisations a trusted alternative to non-European procurement platforms – strengthening local value creation and keeping data where it belongs. More than 700 employees around the world contribute to Unite’s development, bringing diverse perspectives and a strong sense of responsibility. Does this sound like you? Join us as we take procurement to the next level.

As a Software Engineer (gn), you will be part of the team behind the interface between suppliers and the Unite platform - building and evolving the systems that turn raw catalogue data into business reality.

From catalogue processing to customised pricing models, you will work on systems that reliably handle thousands of suppliers and millions of product records every day. That means real-world scalability, logically structured APIs, and end-to-end ownership - not just writing code, but taking responsibility for systems that matter.

We're looking for someone curious , optimistic and dedicated - because the work we do here runs every single day, without exception.

If you want to work where data becomes business, you've come to the right place.
