Senior Developer (f/m/d)

SIDESTREAM is a one of a kind software company. We focus on a great work- and engineering-culture while building software for customers, working for a DAO and trying out our own software products.
New Work is not a trend or buzzword for us, but rather our DNA – here are a few examples:
We were founded just before the Corona pandemic and grew up accordingly as a hybrid (remote + office) company
Our corporate language is English
We are one of the first companies in the world to work with a DAO
Although we are only 2 years old, we have already been able to make a difference:
Germany-wide we have developed the first digital 2-G Genesenen certificate for the city of Cologne
The Handelsblatt already reported about our innovative cooperation with DAO
Well-known customers like DuMont and Ubisoft trust us with their software issues
