Software, cloud & data jobs in Germany.
On the teams that ship.
German software companies, scale-ups and digital teams hire backend, full-stack, cloud, DevOps and data engineers — and many interview in English. Velai places Indian software & IT professionals into those teams, with visa and relocation handled alongside you.

Why Germany needs software people like you.
German employers are modernising their platforms — cloud migrations, data stacks, product rebuilds — with too few experienced engineers for all of it.
Product companies, not staff augmentation
You join software companies, B2B platforms and the digital units of established businesses — teams that own their product and their roadmap, not ticket factories.
Backend, cloud and data in demand
Java with Spring Boot, Python and Node on the backend; TypeScript and React on the front end; Kubernetes, Terraform and AWS or Azure in the cloud; Spark, dbt and Snowflake in data — the roles German employers ask Velai for most.
English-first teams
Many engineering teams interview and work in English; German is a bonus. Relocation support such as German courses is agreed per employer and written into your offer, so it is never a gate. When a role does need German from day one, it is stated clearly on the job post.
Four role types fit software, cloud and data profiles best.
Where Indian software & IT professionals typically land in Germany.
Backend engineer (Java · Spring Boot · Python · Node)
Own services and APIs behind real products — Spring Boot or Node services, Kafka pipelines, PostgreSQL — with tests, reviews and on-call done properly.
Full-stack engineer (TypeScript · React)
Ship product features end to end — React and Next.js front ends over typed Node or Java services, with the code quality and tests a German product team expects.
Cloud / DevOps engineer
Build and run the platforms teams deploy on — Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS or Azure, GitOps pipelines and observability that actually pages at the right moment.
Data engineer (Python · Spark · dbt · Snowflake)
Own the data backbone: ingestion and batch pipelines in Python and Spark, ELT with dbt, modelling in Snowflake, and the quality checks that make analytics trustworthy.
