Note from the founder
Felix Gerschau

Germany has the largest tech sector in Europe, spread across Berlin, Munich, and Hamburg. What I like about it is the stability. Strong notice periods, good leave, and employee-friendly labour law. Google, Meta, Delivery Hero, and Databricks all have roles here. 165 German roles are live on the board.

Software engineering in Germany

Germany has Europe's largest economy and a technology sector spread across multiple cities. Berlin is the primary startup and scale-up hub, hosting Delivery Hero, Zalando, Personio, and SoundCloud. Munich is home to BMW's technology division, Allianz Technology, and Google's German engineering office. Hamburg has a strong e-commerce and media technology cluster. Senior software engineers in Germany typically earn between €75,000 and €120,000 in base salary, with global tech companies paying at the upper end. German employment law provides strong worker protections including notice periods of up to six months, a minimum of 20 days annual leave (most companies offer 28 to 30), and co-determination rights through works councils. The EU Blue Card provides a streamlined visa route for international engineers, and Germany introduced a new Skilled Immigration Act making it easier for non-EU tech workers to relocate.

The Pragmatic Engineer

Recently came across a neat site called NextLevelJobs.eu: which collects dev openings at "top tier" companies in the EU that offer top of the market (I'd call these Tier 2/3 in the trimodal model). It crawls these jobs at those companies and surfaces new listings.

I take a look at nextleveljobs.eu every once in a while, and I like how simple and straightforward it is.

Software Engineer at Atlassian

NextLevelJobs has been really useful for me. I was able to find, and land a new gig at a really respected company through it, and I can't wait to start. Ever since I have been recommending friends in similar positions to sign up if they're looking for their next great EU job.

Junior Software Developer

I love how clean and straightforward nextleveljobs.eu is. It's a breath of fresh air compared to other job boards that are cluttered and overwhelming. Focusing specifically on tech positions is a huge plus for me, and the filters are incredibly helpful. I can find the perfect job in seconds. Plus, the team behind it is always open to feedback, which shows they truly care about the user experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from LinkedIn?

LinkedIn optimizes for engagement and volume. We optimize for compensation and signal.

That means:

• No low-paying startups

• No recruiter repost spam

• Focus on companies known to pay strong salaries

• Only roles that are still active on company career pages

We track engineering roles directly from company websites and surface opportunities at companies where senior engineers typically earn €100k+ depending on role and location.

Why charge developers instead of companies?

Most job boards get paid by companies. That creates an incentive to maximize listings, not quality.

We charge developers, so we have zero reason to inflate job counts, promote sponsored listings, or prioritize volume over relevance.

If a role isn't worth your time, it doesn't belong here.

How do you decide which companies to include?

We focus on companies known to pay strong compensation for senior engineers, typically €100k+ depending on role and location.

Each role is sourced directly from company career pages. No recruiters, no agencies, no paid placements.

New companies are added continuously based on compensation benchmarks and hiring patterns.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, you can cancel anytime before renewal. No hidden fees. No retention games.

Do you guarantee €100k+ salaries?

We focus on companies known to offer strong compensation for senior engineers. Final compensation always depends on role, location, and negotiation.

We filter for high potential, not empty promises.

How often is the job list updated?

Roles are tracked daily and typically appear within hours of being posted on company career pages.

This gives early applicants an advantage before listings get flooded.
