Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark COACH Solutions ApS Full time

Location: Copenhagen (on-site with hybrid flexibility)
Company: Coach Solutions ApS
Industry: Maritime SaaS | Data & Sustainability | High-Impact Tech

Help us shape the future of sustainable shipping.

At Coach Solutions, we build software that empowers the global shipping industry to work smarter, sail greener, and make data-driven decisions that matter — for both profit and sustainability. Backed by Kongsberg Maritime, we're entering a pivotal new phase, modernizing our architecture and scaling our impact.

We're now looking for a Head of Backend to lead and grow our backend development team in Copenhagen — someone who brings clarity, stability, and curiosity into a complex and evolving tech landscape.

What you'll lead

A team of 10–12 skilled backend developers on-site in Copenhagen

The modernization of our platform

Architectural strategy and backend evolution aligned with business goals

A calm, focused, and learning-driven engineering culture

1:1s, performance reviews, and development planning

Team forecasting, backlog management, and delivery follow-up

Architectural planning and end-state definition

Continuous process improvement and retrospectives

Ownership of our Azure setup, dev tools, and backend platform

Driving technical decisions and people development with equal care

What we're looking for

You've likely held roles like Lead Developer, IT Architect, or Head of Development, and you:

Have hands-on experience with SaaS, .NET / C#, Docker and modern backend architecture

Bring a track record of leading developers through growth and transition

Balance long-term thinking with short-term delivery

Communicate clearly with both tech and business folks

Care deeply about people, learning, and impact

Thrive in environments where "the best idea wins" — not the title

The mindset that fits

You're steady under pressure, pragmatic in execution, open to change, and thoughtful in how you lead. You bring emotional maturity, technical depth, and a healthy sense of humor to the team. We're not just hiring a backend lead — we're looking for a culture-carrier and architecture partner.

What you get

A purpose-driven workplace at the intersection of tech and sustainability

A flexible, informal work environment, we want to keep you for a long time

A social workplace with a respectful culture and a relaxed atmosphere where compassion beats noise

A team that values curiosity, autonomy, and psychological safety

Opportunity for self-development both personally and professionally

Ready to lead with clarity, care, and technical edge?

We'd love to meet you. Reach out and let's build something meaningful together.
