Your mission
countX is a Berlin-based SaaS company that simplifies EU VAT compliance for e-commerce businesses. Our platform automates VAT registration, reporting, and compliance processes, enabling online merchants to expand across Europe with less administrative effort and lower compliance risk.
We are looking for a Senior Product Engineer to own features end-to-end—from problem discovery and system design to implementation, deployment, and continuous improvement. You will work autonomously across the stack, making pragmatic engineering decisions that deliver meaningful customer value. At countX, you won’t be handed a backlog of predefined tickets; instead, you’ll be trusted to identify opportunities, define solutions, and bring them to life.
Our engineering team embraces modern AI-assisted development practices and works extensively with Claude Code to accelerate development and improve code quality. Our tech stack includes PHP, TypeScript, Python, Go, and React, and we value engineers who are comfortable working across technologies and choosing the right tool for the problem at hand.
