We mean it when we say “cutting edge” and have a high level of creative freedom in our everyday work.
You will be surrounded by like-minded, driven, skilled, and highly motivated people who are keen to contribute to successful solutions.
We mean diversity, and we put it in numbers: 130+ people, 36 languages, 35% female (vs. ø26% in the tech industry), ø33 years of age, and yes, we do have Schlager-Fans among us.
We have a very supportive and appreciative working environment with a lot of autonomy, a flat hierarchy, and professional growth possibilities.
We work in a hybrid mode, with weekly team days for better collaboration and nurturing interpersonal connections. When onsite, we work in a modern, kid- and pet-friendly Better Space in the heart of Berlin-Kreuzberg.
Remote work from anywhere for up to 12 weeks in total per year.
30 vacation days in a 5-day/week working model.
Kindergarten grant and a Company Pension scheme.
Regular team breakfasts, fitness & wellness classes, company runs, and other events. Fruits, snacks, drinks, and coffee with a variety of milk are a given - but yes, we have them.
Outstanding flexibility we are proud of – and, of course, the best colleagues in the world!
Location data sits at the heart of every delivery, and the Better Places tribe owns the address intelligence that makes those deliveries possible. We ingest messy, real-world address inputs, normalise them, correct geocoding errors, and enrich them with open and proprietary data—all at a scale of hundreds of millions of requests per month.
Within the tribe, the Geo Solutions team builds and maintains the data pipelines that power our address enrichment, first-mile routing, and last-meter delivery features. We focus on building scalable, observable, and high-quality geodata workflows that enable fast onboarding of new markets and continuous improvement in existing ones.
We’re a tight-knit, fast-moving group that loves diving deep into the quirks of global addressing. On any given day, you’ll find us debating spatial joins, pipeline sensors, or the best way to model address data in SQL. Our stack runs entirely in AWS and centres on Dagster, dbt, and DuckDB, with plenty of open-source tooling.
If you’re excited by geocoding accuracy, address parsing, and building resilient geodata pipelines that serve millions of deliveries—you’ll feel at home here.
