Senior Software Engineer - mobile (All Genders)

HEY!

Imagine grassroots football finally had the platform it deserves.

Every weekend, millions of people write their own personal football stories – on pitches, in clubs and on the sidelines. We believe this passion deserves a digital home too.

That's exactly what we're building every single day.

MAIN INFORMATION

• Start: Immediate (flexible)
• Location: Cologne, Berlin or London
• Workload: Full-time
• Area of responsibility: Tech

IS THIS A MATCH?

The most important basics – so we both know if it could work.

• Location: you’re excited to work either from one of our offices (Berlin Mitte, London, Cologne) or fully remote - whatever suits you best.
• Experience: you have at least 8 years of relevant experience and feel confident in your role.
• Mobile expertise and full-stack approach: you have hands-on experience building and maintaining mobile apps (iOS, Android, or cross-platform), understand the specific challenges of mobile development, and you want to build full-stack using agentic engineering.
• Startup mindset: you enjoy working in a growing team and dynamic environment – and ideally, you’ve already gained experience in a startup or similarly fast-paced setting and like building things from the ground up.

YOUR PLAYING FIELD

Here's why this role matters for our mission.

• Thousands of amateur footballers rely on Prematch every week to connect with their football community.
• To keep delivering an outstanding experience, we need someone who takes ownership of our mobile platform, builds high-quality features and continuously improves performance, architecture and code quality.
• Your goal: Shape the future of our Flutter app by building scalable solutions that create real value for our users.

HOW YOU'LL MAKE A DIFFERENCE

This is how you move our mission forward every day.

• Product Thinking: You develop with a clear product focus and make technical decisions with user experience, business value and long-term scalability in mind.
• Feature Development: You build new features for our Flutter app and our entire stack – using a modern, AI-driven development approach.
• Ownership: You work independently within a product team, take ownership and actively contribute your experience to technical development.
• Engineering Excellence: You help raise code quality within the team and set high standards for maintainability, structure and technical excellence.
• Review Culture: Through thorough code reviews, you ensure that our mobile codebase remains consistent, robust and of high quality.
• Product & Design Collaboration: You work closely with Product and Design, constructively challenge requirements and translate them into robust technical solutions.
• App Performance: You continuously improve the performance, stability and reliability of our mobile application.
• Mobile Architecture: You actively shape architectural decisions in the mobile domain and contribute to a scalable technical vision.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE

We're not looking for a perfect CV. But you should recognise yourself in these points.

• AI-First Development: You use AI not as an add-on, but as an integral part of a modern development workflow.
• Flutter Expertise: You have strong knowledge of Dart and Flutter and develop high-performance, high-quality mobile applications.
• Architecture & Code Quality: SOLID principles, clean structures and sustainable code quality are second nature to you.
• Mobile UX: You understand how good mobile products work – from UI/UX principles to proven design patterns.
• Quality Mindset: You work in a test-driven and quality-oriented manner and are familiar with common testing methods in software development.
• Collaboration: You impress with a positive, proactive approach and actively contribute to strong team dynamics.

BONUS

Not a must - but this'll definitely earn you extra points.

• Full-stack thinking: Ideally, you’ll also have knowledge of back-end and DevOps.
• Platform expertise: Experience in native Android/iOS development is a strong plus.
• Firebase stack: You have practical experience with Firebase as a building block of modern mobile architectures.
• Product Analytics: You use tools such as Amplitude and Braze to understand user behaviour and specifically increase engagement.

BENEFITS

We want you to love joining us - and still love being part of the team a long time from now. * Be part of it from the start – Shape how Prematch grows and transforms amateur football.

• Competitive salary – You’ll be paid fairly and transparently.
• Employee participation (VSOP) - directly benefit from the company’s success.
• Three cool offices in Cologne, Berlin, and London - true startup vibes to work and grow together. Want to visit another office? We support that too!
• Remote work - depending on your distance to the office, you work 1–3 days a week onsite and the rest flexibly remote (working from home at the start and end of the week is quite popular) - whatever suits you best. Tech & Product roles sometimes offer 100% remote.
• Remote, even from afar - Whether it’s a week of sunshine abroad or a few days with family - we allow flexible work from outside your usual location.
• Team spirit - whether in the office or at home, we use cool tools and a virtual office to keep the team tightly connected.
• Modern IT equipment - We provide the tools and devices you need to be productive.
• 27 vacation days per year - For your rest and to recharge. Plus special arrangements if you’re a parent, so you can better balance family and relaxation.
