Our core teams

Software engineering

Our software engineering teams are full-stack and specialise in multiple areas, such as frontend, backend, or DevOps. They design, code, test, deploy, and maintain everything on our platform, including features like user management, AAA, payment methods, and the checkout process. Whether they are developing the UI, a new microservice, or troubleshooting bugs, there’s plenty of room for creativity and problem-solving.

Data engineering and science

Our data engineering and data science teams work passionately on our platform, collating valuable information to enable ourselves and our users to derive meaningful insights. Mathematical models and data structures help us identify identical articles and rank products, as well as map the user journey for a better user experience. These teams are multi-skilled and master several programming languages to stay on top of our data needs.

IT Infrastructure

The IT infrastructure teams are the backbone of our operation. They support our platform and internal IT landscape, and are responsible for building, operating, and maintaining a state-of-the-art IT infrastructure while also keeping a watchful eye on security threats.

How we work

Flexibly

When facing a task, our colleagues have the liberty and flexibility to find their solutions. An agile approach to working in autonomous teams provides a structured and secure environment for imagination, proactivity and experimentation.

Collaboratively

We encourage everyone to unite their strengths for the greater good. Team up in pair programming sessions to spark ideas, think differently and find new perspectives. Open communication is at the core of our values and fosters knowledge-sharing and collaboration within teams.

Iteratively

We work iteratively to drive product innovation. If something doesn’t work out as you intended, that’s ok, you’re one step closer to the expected result. Shake it off and try again.

Autonomously

Our full-stack engineering teams are structured around business domains, which favour a microservice architecture. Your responsibilities don't end once you finish implementing the code. You will be responsible for building and running the services you create.

In my team, decisions are made with a wide margin. Great value is attached to sound opinions based on hard facts, and this is something that really sets Unite apart from other employers.

Host - meet - party - repeat

We have been supporting JUG Saxony for many years
Summer party

Our 2022 summer party was held at Leipzig after a three-year hiatus. The atmosphere was abuzz with activity as 450-plus employees from around the world joined in, some of whom met each other in person for the first time. "Having this incredible opportunity to celebrate and experience our spirited culture has strengthened my connection with Unite and Unitees," remarked Rachit Gurung from Nepal, one of the many colleagues invited from 26 countries.

SAP meets agile working - Meetup

Agile working in IT development can be tricky, especially while collaborating with software giants like SAP. In a networking event hosted at Leipzig, Germany, we exchanged tips, tricks and trimmings of agile working and dynamic programming.

Hardware for future

Children need a computer for home-schooling. But that's exactly what many Leipzig schoolchildren lack. The "Hardware for Future" association donates PCs to enable digital participation among children. In November 2020, Unitees refurbished and donated 50 computers to this cause.

We are members of JUG Saxony & IT Cluster

As an IT company and sponsor, we have been supporting JUG Saxony for many years with expertise and insights into the everyday IT life of our colleagues. We support the JUG community of Java enthusiasts by hosting events, setting up workshops and encouraging youth to enter the IT branch. We are also part of the IT cluster, a regional network of IT companies.

Women working in IT

Our IT HR colleagues, Carolin Fischer and Amruta Pallewar, gave a presentation at the 'diversIT: Women in IT' event by Lancaster University Leipzig on Tech Recruitment connected with women empowerment. They shared insights on the importance of increasing the presence of women in IT, the challenges women face in the industry, and ways to motivate more girls to study computer science and similar fields.
