Vizzlo is a cloud-based SaaS platform for creating professional, editable data visualizations and charts that integrates directly into PowerPoint and Google Slides. It offers 120+ chart types, custom themes and templates, data sync with cloud storage (Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box), an AI-powered chart generator, and features for teams and enterprises such as SSO, license management, role-based access, and audit logs. Vizzlo targets data-driven professionals, teams, consultants, and enterprises seeking effortless, on-brand visualizations that stay in sync with source data.

📋 Description

• Lead the Team: Guide and grow our engineering team across Dataviz, Frontend, Backend, Integrations, and DevOps. • Own the Architecture: Take responsibility for our overall architecture, technology choices, and the scalability of the platform—and stay hands-on enough to know why every decision holds up. • Frontend & Backend: Steer our TypeScript/React development for web and desktop, and our Go/Postgres backend. • Dataviz Engine: Drive the development of our browser-based data visualization engine (TypeScript) and its interaction interfaces—the heart of what makes Vizzlo, Vizzlo. • Integrations: Own the tech behind our third-party integrations: Google Slides (Google Apps Script) and Microsoft PowerPoint (VSTO and Office.js, C# and TypeScript/React). • DevOps & Ops: Run our CI/CD pipeline and deployment process, keep production healthy on Vercel and AWS (ECS, RDS, …), manage our Docker-based preview environments. • Keep Us Safe & Sound: Help ensure our data protection and security standards are met, keep the relevant docs and policies current, and manage technical risk sensibly. • Get Shit Done: Do whatever it takes to move the product forward—coordinate a release, hunt down a nasty bug, pair with an engineer, or jump on a customer's integration issue.

🎯 Requirements

• Excellent written and spoken English skills (a must); good German skills are a plus. • 3+ years of hands-on software engineering experience, plus at least some experience leading or mentoring a team—formally or informally. • Deep, practical knowledge of the technologies we use—at minimum TypeScript/React and Go. • Solid experience with cloud infrastructure, preferably AWS, and with modern DevOps and CI/CD practices. • Experience building third-party integrations and designing clean APIs. • Track record of shipping in a SaaS environment with continuous deployment. • A genuine interest in data visualization—and ideally some opinions about how it should be built. • Strong communication skills and commercial sense: you get that engineering decisions serve business priorities, not the other way around. • A bias for action: you'd rather ship something solid and iterate than architect in a vacuum for months. • Bonus: you've worked with Postgres at scale, built Office/Google add-ins, wrangled Vercel/ECS/RDS in production, or have strong feelings about bar charts vs. pie charts.

🏖️ Benefits

• Full-time leadership position with a competitive remuneration package. • Equity participation (VSOP)—you share in what we build. • Start-up environment where your talents and motivation make a real, visible impact. • International team of highly motivated doers. • Fully remote position (within Germany), with ultra-nice offices in Leipzig (Plagwitz) for optional in-person collaboration.
