Job Description

The Vantage Education Group is Switzerland's leading education group with over twelve educational institutions. Together, we develop innovative continuing education programs that combine theory and practice at the highest level.

Senior Software Engineer & Solution Architect, 80-100%

We are further developing our central system landscape for the educational organization. At its core is our proprietary Student Information System based on Angular, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, and Azure – including interfaces to CRM, ERP, LMS, and analytics. We are seeking an experienced individual who combines software development, business acumen, and system design, starting October 1, 2026 , or by agreement. You will implement solutions independently and as part of a team, provide technical leadership, and create structures that facilitate knowledge sharing, documentation, and long-term maintainability.

Your tasks:

  • Further development of our Student Information System and its associated applications
  • Design and implementation of robust solutions using Angular, FastAPI (Async, Pydantic, Routing), PostgreSQL and Azure
  • Development of APIs, integrations and data flows between SIS, CRM, ERP, LMS and Analytics
  • Improvement of code quality, testing, security, performance, CI/CD and operational stability
  • Translation of business processes and requirements into clear technical solutions
  • Definition of system boundaries, interfaces, data models and architectural decisions
  • Sparring on data governance, integration architecture, and enterprise architecture
  • Technical guidance through code reviews, design reviews, pairing, and common standards.

You bring the following:

  • Several years of experience in professional software development, ideally in a senior or lead role.
  • Excellent knowledge of modern frontend and backend development
  • Good knowledge of Angular, TypeScript, HTML/CSS
  • Good knowledge of Python, API development and relational databases
  • Experience with Azure, cloud architectures and CI/CD
  • Understanding of system design, integration architecture, security, and productive operation
  • Ability to quickly understand complex business processes and translate them into actionable solutions.
  • Clear, structured and documentation-oriented working methods
  • Fluent in German (at least B2 level), English skills are an advantage.

What's important to us:

We are not looking for a purely architectural role without operational implementation, nor a purely development role without interest in business processes and system interrelationships.

For us, success means building systems, responsibilities, and collaboration in such a way that multiple people can understand, operate, and further develop solutions.

Here's what we offer you:

  • Scope for creativity in a dynamic, innovative educational group
  • Hybrid working, flexible working hours
  • Further training opportunities within the group
  • Attractive employment conditions, five weeks of vacation and a day off on your birthday
  • Modern infrastructure, coffee, fruit & inspiring team events
  • Modern tools, coaching by experienced developers, further training
  • Clear development paths (e.g. towards Fullstack, Architecture, DevOps)
