Job Description
We are an engineering organization. Our mission is to “Ship great software” and build custom, large-scale software platforms on time, on budget and on target.
In over two decades, we have never failed to deliver what we promised.
85% of our members are software engineers with a background in computer science, physics or mathematics, many also with a strong background in machine learning.
freiheit.com technologies was founded in Hamburg in the midst of the first internet boom in the last millennium in 1999.
Since then, we've been building custom software platforms and helping our clients to create their future business models based on software.
For over a quarter of a century, we have been working for the "Who's Who" of German and European industrial and commercial companies.
Retail, automotive, e-commerce, healthcare and more.
Our large-scale software platforms are used by millions of users every day. Each product has a business-critical, strategic relevance for our customers.
We have a team of 250+ employees from 30+ nations in our engineering hubs in Hamburg and Lisbon.
We make “mission impossible” possible and very often create things that no one has ever built before.
Our teams work data-driven to constantly optimize their own productivity by removing friction from their work. Each member takes on end-to-end responsibility for their work. To be successful, you need to be productive. To be productive, you need to be efficient and effective.
Technology never rests. Neither do we.

Together you will find the top 5 percent of software engineers and students worldwide who have the potential and the will to grow with us and develop into excellent full-stack engineers. Our community and our drive to constantly grow is what defines us. Therefore, not only skills are important, but also the culture fit.
- You want to constantly improve yourself and your processes. You control your recruiting measures via a dashboard that gives you up-to-date information about success or possible improvements. Your goal is not to increase the applicant rate in absolute terms, but the conversion rate of incoming applicants. All measures against this are measured and optimized.
- You have the coordination of the recruiting team and applicant management firmly in your hands. You ensure a positive experience for our applicants, regardless of whether they receive an answer to their letter, have a conversation on the phone or have even been invited for a personal interview. Each applicant reflects the same positive image of our community, where learning, sharing and personal growth are paramount.
- You see active search as a way of addressing good colleagues personally, discreetly, respectfully and without being intrusive. You have experience of where to search and how to organize direct contact, then in the freiheit.com style. It motivates you to set up this process and to continuously develop it further in order to turn it into a successful recruiting channel.
- Due to your open and committed nature, you manage to build and maintain long-term and successful cooperations with universities, student groups and service providers.
- You enjoy organizing events and trade fair appearances. On these occasions, you are a passionate ambassador of our unique culture.
- You have successfully completed a university degree in the humanities, natural sciences or economics.
- You have already gained professional experience in recruiting engineers in tech companies or startups.
- You know the dos and don'ts of applicant management and active search.
- Your English is fluent in speaking and writing.
- You are good at networking and enjoy building lasting working relationships.
- You love to learn something new every day and like to grow beyond yourself.
- You are honest and have a sense of humor. You are intoxicating, charming and assertive. You don't want just any job, you want to make a difference and actively shape something with your ideas and your skills.
If you ask anyone why they work here, it's pretty likely that they will say “because of the people” and “because I've never learned so much in my life”.
We believe that productive people are happy people.
In our engineering hubs in Hamburg and Lisbon, you will meet smart, nice, ambitious people from all over the world.
Becoming a well-rounded professional in your field of expertise is a long journey that takes many years of hard work and learning. Our company is the best place to become that person.
Being a member of our company will ask a lot of you and no one can do the work for you. We will set high expectations for you and provide you with the skills and successful behaviors needed to meet them.
Here you have the opportunity to work with intelligent people on interesting tasks and complete projects from idea to operations - end to end.
Our company is a place where you can become the best version of yourself.
