Fullstack Software Engineer (gn) Operational Procurement - Europe - Remote

Hello, my name is Christian, and I’m the Director of Engineering for the Operational Procurement domain here at Unite.
Our teams own key parts of the customer journey – including user management, the shopping basket, checkout, and related services.
Our mission is to create a seamless shopping experience with strong conversion rates and to build a robust new Unite Procurement Portal (UPP). If you’re excited about working on business‑critical services and helping shape a product that facilitates thousands of orders every single day, we’d be very happy to meet you.

Are you ready to reinvent procurement? At Unite, we’ve spent over 25 years successfully working to make procurement in companies and public organisations better – digital, impactful and sustainable, powered by technology with principles. Our procurement solution, “made in Europe”, creates transparency, fairness and genuine data sovereignty. It is continuously developed by over 700 international employees who think boldly, take responsibility and celebrate diversity. If you truly want to make a difference, come on board and help us shape the future of procurement.
