Anyone who joins the development team at hello again doesn’t just build software—he or she develops smart, digital loyalty programs that help companies retain their customers. But what really makes the day-to-day work so special for developers and designers here?
Team members from the Backend, UI/UX, and Development & Pre-Sales departments gave us a behind-the-scenes look. We’ve summarized their answers for you in this blog post. The bottom line: This is where cutting-edge technologies, a truly pioneering role in AI, and a great team spirit come together.
Here are the top reasons why it's super cool to work on the hello again dev team:
1. Real impact instead of endless bureaucracy
Who isn’t familiar with those rigid corporate structures where it feels like every little detail has to be approved 17 times? At hello again, things work differently. The teams work dynamically and agilely according to the Scrumban concept (a blend of Scrum and Kanban) and, above all, in a solution-oriented way. Short decision-making paths ensure that you can implement ideas quickly and have a real impact on the product. You can find an overview of all the teams at hello again and more information here.
What's especially cool: You're not necessarily bound by rigid job descriptions. If you enjoy a particular niche and add value, you have the freedom here to actively help shape and further develop your own role within the company.

We once asked our colleague Renuka how she would actually explain to her grandma what she does as a developer at hello again. 🙂
2. A tech stack that's fun to work with—and AI as your everyday companion
Developers will find a modern playground here. Among other things, the project uses:
- Python, Django, and Celery
- PostgreSQL
- React Native
- Docker and Kubernetes
- Vue.js
- Google Cloud
But what really sets the team apart from others is its use of artificial intelligence. While other companies are still debating AI, at hello again it is already being used intensively and experimentally in everyday work. Whether it’s Claude Code, Claude Design, or other tools: AI is actively used for conceptualization, research, and development.
The management team also brings a wealth of expertise and curiosity to the table, which creates an atmosphere that is extremely innovation-driven. A monthly „AI Forum“ also ensures that insights are shared and that everyone on the team stays up to date.
3. Freaky Friday, DONI, and Steady Growth
There’s no standing still here. Professional development is deeply integrated into our day-to-day work—whether through direct exchanges within the team, spontaneous „knowledge-sharing sessions“ on the Slack channel, or targeted courses that you can simply request if you’re interested.
Our annual DONI („Day of New Ideas“) also provides the ultimate boost to innovation. For a day and a half, we work across teams in a hackathon-style format to brainstorm completely new ideas. With snacks on hand and a safe space for creativity, we refine solutions that we ultimately pitch to a panel of experts—with the goal of implementing them right away! Many innovative ideas have emerged from the development team in particular, benefiting both us and our clients.
4. Diversity, flexibility, and… cake!
The dev team at hello again is international and diverse. The mix of different cultures and personalities not only makes everyday life incredibly exciting, but it’s also a great way to improve your English skills.
The work-life balance isn't neglected either: A hybrid model combining remote work and days in the office allows plenty of flexibility for self-management. At the same time, the office is a place where people enjoy getting together.
And anyone who forgets to lock their laptop at the office will quickly become familiar with one of the team’s most charming „rituals“: the infamous „cake message,“ which is a fun way to remind people to take data protection seriously—and, in the best-case scenario, results in cake for the team.
In short
hello again offers an environment for anyone who’s interested in modern tools, enjoys experimenting with AI, values international teams, and wants one thing above all else: to tackle challenges and really make a difference!
