Company Description
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
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
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
- Support for your leadership growth initiatives
- A team that values curiosity, autonomy, and psychological safety
- Opportunity for self-development both personally and professionally
We'd love to meet you. Reach out and let's build something meaningful together.Seniority level
