First things first

Get to know us

We’re a team of 190+ experts with different backgrounds and skills, building digital products for Porsche, one of the world’s most iconic sports car brands.

Within Car Sales, we work on the end-to-end online vehicle sales journey – from car discovery and configuration to dealer-facing sales and inventory tools. Our mission is to make this experience more transparent, scalable, and data driven for customers around the world.

We follow a simple principle: you build it, you own it, you run it. That means teams take responsibility for their products all the way through, from architecture and development to production and operations.

As a Backend Engineer, you’ll work on systems used across the Porsche sales ecosystem. Together with product managers and fellow engineers, you’ll design, build, and maintain features end-to-end with a strong focus on clean architecture, performance, and long-term maintainability. And while your work will happen behind the scenes, its impact will reach all the way to one of life's most exciting moments: buying a Porsche.

When we say we offer you a lot, we mean it. Here are just some of the benefits you can expect while working with us.

We don’t go from one client to the next. Instead, we put all of our efforts into products for Porsche. This means no frantic fixes or pulling an all-nighter to fulfill the wishes of clients.

Performance feedback

Flattery may get you everywhere, but being honest with each other keeps us both growing. We keep each other in check with regular 1-on-1 sessions, as well as 360 reviews.

Porsche in garage

We use Porsche Taycan and Panamera as testing tools. With actual car testing, we never stop tweaking our development process and applying the knowledge we gain from it to the next feature we build, as well as existing ones.
