Deine Rolle bei uns

Our focus is on creating a seamless, applicant-centered experience where over 95.000 legal professionals can explore comprehensive employer profiles, including insights into salaries, career prospects, and more, even before applying. Our unique talent profile system empowers candidates to apply directly for positions or be proactively approached through Active Sourcing. For employers, Talent Rocket offers a distinctive edge in the competitive labor market, enabling them to stand out and significantly reduce the hiring timeline for open positions.

In this role you won't sit at the edge of that product. You'll build on the backend that powers it, working directly with the founders and the CTO and Head of Product. No ticket queue, no three rounds of sign-off.

Deine Aufgabe bei uns

• Build and ship features, from first idea to deployment.
• Ship products independently on top of our backend. What they become is largely up to you.
• Turn backend data into reports and analytics, either vibe-coded or in Tableau and Salesforce.
• Put yourself in our customers' shoes. Before you build something, you understand the problem it solves.

Our stack

• Frontend: TypeScript (Angular)
• Backend: Golang (Gin Gonic), Mysql, Postgresql, Tableau
• Infra: Digital Ocean

Das beschreibt dich

• You are enrolled in a Bachelor / Master in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, a technology-and-management programme, or you bring equivalent practical experience.
• You have solid programming foundations and something to show for them, e.g., a repo, a side project, a tool you shipped.
• You are comfortable with SQL and have worked with different databases. Knowledge/Experience with Tableau is a plus.
• You have a working understanding of RESTful APIs and how front-end applications interact with back-end services. Exposure to TypeScript and Angular helps, but is not required.
• You work confidently with Git and understand branching and pull request workflows.
• You use AI tools like Cursor, Claude Code or others to supercharge your workflow — and can tell when not to trust them.
• You combine strong coding foundations with deep curiosity, high ambition, and the drive to grow fast in a high-performance environment.
• You take ownership instead of waiting for precise instructions.
• You can commit 15–20 hours per week and stay with us for at least two semesters.

Warum Talent Rocket?

• Ownership from day one. You aren't executing tickets, you're defining the product working side by side with the team, zero red tape.
• A mission that matters. Matching the right talent with the right employer.
• Excellent pay. For top candidates, we pay well above the usual working-student rate, because we expect a lot.
• Direct line to the top. The founders and the CTO are your counterparts.
• An office in the heart of Munich. In person, flexible when university calls.
• Regular team events, including summer and Christmas parties.
• Comprehensive sport and wellness programs, focusing on both physical and mental health.
• A place where you get better fast. High expectations, real feedback, short paths.
