About Us Feather was founded in 2018 by Rob Schumacher and Vincent Audoire, who both faced unexpected challenges navigating Germany’s complex insurance system—even as Europeans themselves. Frustrated by the bureaucracy and lack of clarity, they set out to create a better experience: one that was simple, accessible, and transparent. Their journey began as part of the first Entrepreneur First Berlin cohort, a program dedicated to helping ambitious individuals build impactful companies from scratch. This foundation enabled them to turn their idea into a mission—making insurance radically easier for everyone. That’s why we’ve built Feather to simplify every step of the insurance experience—from signing up and filing claims to asking questions or canceling a policy. Our goal is to provide honest, unbiased advice and empower people with the clarity they need to make confident decisions. And because insurance is still too complicated, we offer human support, helpful articles, and easy-to-use tools for those moments when people need a little extra guidance. To date, Feather has helped people from over 150 countries get insurance online—and we’re growing fast.
Insurance can feel complicated, but it doesn’t have to be. Feather gives you clear guidance, straightforward policies, and a digital experience that saves time and worry. No jargon, no hidden catches. Just honest advice and cover that fits your life, wherever in Europe you call home.
Intro We’re looking for a full-stack engineer with a backend mindset to join our product team in building a platform that is easy to use and welcomes thousands of happy customers every day. As Feather expands to a global scale, you’ll help maintain the customer experience smooth and reliable, by scaling our systems and infrastructure alongside the company, and raising the bar of the engineering team.
Why work at Feather? We’re small, lean, and we love what we do. The usual buzzwords here, except we actually mean them. Staying small helps us focus on what matters, and we want to keep it that way. A modern tech stack to work with. We use TypeScript with NestJS, Prisma and React. Our CI/CD runs on GitHub actions, and the code is deployed to GCP with Docker and Terraform. You’ll work on a product that is loved by customers. Our excellent Trustpilot and Google reviews speak for themselves. There's plenty of space to grow. We trust you to take ownership and make decisions from day one, and we will give you all the support and mentorship you need to succeed. You’ll have the freedom to explore and innovate. Our regular hack days let you experiment with new technologies and ideas. Our design system Dirty Swan and several other internal tools were once a hack day project. Flexible remote work policy. We offer a remote-first work environment with an office in Berlin. We host company retreats, team dinners, and meetups to spend in-person time together.
You'll be responsible for You’ll help shape and work on product features in a highly collaborative, small team. This is a full-stack role, where you’ll be mainly focused on backend initiatives. From day one, you’ll ship code to production, and over time, you’ll explore every corner of our product. There will be lots of hands-on coding, but that’s only a part of the job. Your main focus areas will be:
Here are some examples of the kind of work you’ll do:
What You Bring To The Table At Feather, you'll be trusted with significant responsibility early on. That means we value engineers who communicate well, take ownership, and are comfortable with uncertainty. If you enjoy shaping both the "what" and the "how" of building products, you'll fit right in. The technical side matters too, and here’s the baseline:
But that's it. We don't expect you to know everything about the latest hype architecture or framework. We prefer hiring someone curious but practical, who can pick the right, often boring, tool for the job. We encourage people that don’t have a formal higher education, or who switched to engineering later in their careers to apply. If you enjoy the challenge and can learn fast, the team will provide you with the support you need.
