We're Hiring: Software Developer (f/m/d)
Location: Munich (Hybrid)

Lively Apps is a Munich-based start-up. Since 2020, we've been developing innovative SaaS software for the Atlassian ecosystem, with a strong focus on collaboration and productivity.

Our apps are used by over 3 million daily users worldwide – and we’re looking to grow further, with you.

You

You’re not just a software developer – you’re a product developer. You love turning ideas into real, usable solutions that deliver value.

We build collaboration tools on top of Atlassian’s Confluence – and right now, we’re 100% Forge-focused. We believe Forge is the future of app development in the Atlassian ecosystem, and we’re excited to be part of shaping that future.

You:

• Have a background in computer science or a comparable STEM field.
• Bring experience in modern software development and a strong interest in cloud-native, serverless technologies – especially Atlassian Forge and AWS.
• Want to shape the future of collaboration tools with simple, smart, and maintainable solutions.
• Think in terms of end-to-end ownership: from first sketches and prototypes to UI/UX, frontend (React), backend, DevOps, and product delivery.
• Enjoy talking to users, fixing bugs yourself, and learning from real-world use.
• Are comfortable in both German and English and like working in a collaborative, agile team.
• Either know Atlassian tools or are excited to dive into this space.

Your Future Role

• You work hands-on on features and entire products – not just tickets.
• You create, validate, and implement your own ideas, often in collaboration with users and our team.
• You participate in all stages of the product lifecycle – design, development, deployment, and support.
• You take responsibility: from UI decisions to deployment pipelines and security scans.
• You contribute directly to customer support, including bugfixes and demos.
• You co-develop real use cases with customers and collaborate with marketing to make them visible.
• You regularly attend conferences and user events to stay close to the ecosystem and our customers.

Who We Are

We are product developers through and through. We care deeply about technology, collaboration, and our customers – this triangle drives everything we do.

• We love to build tools that improve collaboration. Atlassian’s platform, especially Forge, is currently the perfect fit – but we’re open to other platforms too.
• We build software from scratch – from first idea to release and beyond.
• We value simple, elegant, and flexible solutions – and avoid overengineering.
• We live a strong product culture: UI/UX and technical excellence go hand in hand.
• Our team is small, focused, and passionate. We give each other space to lead, learn, and grow.

Benefits

• 30 vacation days and flexible working hours – remote work possible.
• MacBook Pro and all the tools you need to build great software.
• EGYM Wellpass & free Deutschlandticket for your commute.
• Regular innovation days, and we welcome workations.
• Opportunities for further education, certifications, and conference visits.

Office Location / Hybrid

Even though we collaborate with colleagues from different cities, we're currently looking for people based in or near Munich who enjoy regular office time with the team.
