WHY SHOULD YOU CARE? Well, there are multiple reasons:
- We're on a strong growth trajectory, and by becoming a part of SAP, our future is stable and secure, allowing us to accelerate.
- Our products are industry-leading, with happy customers and an NPS of 70. Our culture of empowered product teams means we solve problems instead of implementing features. We drive our efforts by closely contacting our customers and measuring how they use our products..
- We build it, we run it. We ensure customers can rely on resilient and performant products. We stay ahead of trouble through a high degree of automation, alerting, SRE practices, and On-Call. There is no dedicated operations department in place at LeanIX.
- We prioritize continuous improvement, collaboration, and knowledge sharing. We constantly iterate on our engineering practices and skills to build a software architecture that supports fun at work and the long-term success of the business.
- We value open access to leadership, transparency, and personal development. We successfully enabled many software engineers to grow along with the company into engineering manager or technical lead positions. You’ll continue this success story while we offer you opportunities to grow.
- We value a healthy life balance, and our employees make room for interests and relationships outside of their jobs. We offer a hybrid working environment, providing a high grade of flexibility while meeting colleagues in one of our offices from time to time.
