Working Student - Web Applications (m/f/d)

What You Can Expect From Us

At Spanflug, we are revolutionizing manufacturing by digitally connecting supply and demand, automating workflows, and streamlining procurement. Our software helps manufacturers quote and produce custom parts and helps buyers source them.

Our Web Applications team builds the web platform behind it: the BUY procurement platform, the MAKE software for manufacturers and internal platforms to support our operations. As a working student, you will work on real features in the backend services and frontend. You will work together with our talented team and get a Claude Code seat from day one.

Your Mission At Our Company

• You build features and user interfaces in our frontend with React, TypeScript, TanStack (Start, Router, Query, Form, Table), Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui.
• You build features in our backend with Python, PostgreSQL, Flask and OpenAPI.
• You develop reusable, accessible components for our design system.
• You write automated tests with Vitest and Playwright and help keep our code quality high.
• You take part in code reviews and technical discussions and share what you learn with the team.

That’s What You Come With

• You study computer science, software engineering, business informatics or a related field, ideally in an advanced Bachelor’s or a Master’s program.
• You have at least 1–2 years of practical frontend experience, for example as a working student, intern or freelancer.
• You know TypeScript and React very well and have built production-grade web applications.
• You have worked with modern frontend tooling such as Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui, TanStack Query or Router, Vite and Zod.
• You have experience with Python, Flask and PostgreSQL or similar.
• You understand web fundamentals: HTML, CSS, accessibility, performance and REST APIs.
• You use AI coding tools such as Claude Code where they save time, review what they produce and understand the code you change.
• Our tools change quickly, especially with AI. You pick up unfamiliar tools fast and help the team adopt what works.
• Optional: You have experience with Figma and Storybook.
• You communicate clearly in English (German is a plus), work independently and ask for input when decisions affect others.
• You can work 15–20 hours per week during the semester.

You don’t need experience with every tool listed. If most of this fits and you want to learn the rest, apply.
