As Germany’s largest provider of online lotteries through our brands LOTTO24 and Tipp24, and a trusted partner of Spain’s ONCE, the second-largest national lottery, we’re shaping the future of the lottery industry. We are passionate about driving innovation, as demonstrated by our newest brands, Freiheit+ and Traumhausverlosung, which bring fresh and exciting dreams to life. Additionally, through ZEAL Ventures, we invest in inspiring e-commerce start-ups like Omaze and DAYMADE, fueling fresh ideas and opportunities. Our team of 350+ professionals from diverse backgrounds is united by a visionary mindset, a passion for collaboration, and a commitment to inspire dreams. At ZEAL, we empower our people to think ambitiously and work together toward a shared purpose: helping people imagine and achieve their aspirations. Your tasks: - Evolve, expand and maintain our component libraries on all our platforms (iOS, Android and Web): Angular, Jetpack Compose, SwiftUI fed by a shared design system. - Partner closely with our UI/UX designers on component APIs, naming, states, and variants, keeping our code in sync with our Figma library - closing the gap between what is designed and what ships. - Define the system's architecture: theming and brand layering, versioning, releases, and a contribution model that invites our domain teams in rather than shutting them out. - Maintain living documentation (e.g. Storybook) and drive adoption through pairing, reviews, and migration paths. - Make accessibility and responsive behavior built-in properties of our components, not an afterthought. - Adopt agentic coding practices and use AI coding agents to accelerate development, while maintaining ownership of technical decisions, code quality, and outcomes. What you offer us: - Several years as a frontend or mobile engineer, including hands-on ownership of a design system or shared component library used by multiple teams. - TypeScript and Angular skills or comparable depth in another modern framework / library and a clear willingness to go all in on Angular plus a sharp instinct for component API design. - Hands-on native UI development with Kotlin/Jetpack Compose or Swift/SwiftUI. You will author native components yourself. Strong expertise in one platform, combined with an interest in developing a working knowledge of the other, is perfectly fine. - Experience with design tokens and theming multi-brand environments: building one system that carries several brands without forking. - A strong grasp of responsive and adaptive design and of accessibility standards, and the habit of verifying both in practice. - A product mindset toward internal tooling, you treat the design system and component libraries as a product with users and measure success by adoption. You enjoy enabling other teams and building consensus across engineering and design. What we offer: - State-of-the-art technologies and an agile environment (Check our Tech Radar: https://lotto24.github.io/tech-radar/) - A modern, dynamic culture grounded in the success of a leading-edge e-commerce company. - A talented team of ambitious, like-minded colleagues where your knowledge and ideas truly make an impact. - Ongoing personal growth, supported by an annual development budget of €1,500 to invest in your professional development. - Trust and autonomy, no micromanagement, just confidence in your ability to deliver and excel. - Flexible work options with a hybrid setup focused on results. - Unlimited vacation days in addition to your yearly 30-day vacation allowance. - Opportunity for workations abroad using our WorkFlex tool. - Monthly mobility allowance of €30 to use on the mobility option of your choice (e.g., the Deutschlandticket), plus access to a company bike leasing program. - Company pension scheme, provided in partnership with Degura, to support your future financial security. - Subsidized EGYM WELLPASS membership, with a contribution of only €25 per month, giving you access to a wide range of gyms and sports options across Germany. - Quarterly company events, along with regular team activities and informal gatherings, a favorite being our Healthy Tuesday lunches or Treat Thursdays in the office! Sounds exciting? Great! We're looking forward to receiving your online application. ## About Zeal Network ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: ZEAL Network SE is the leading German online provider of lottery products, operating brands like LOTTO24 and Tipp24 to broker state-licensed lottery tickets to consumers. - **Entity Type**: Public (Frankfurt Stock Exchange – Ticker: TIMA) - **Headquarters**: Hamburg, Germany - **Founded**: 1999 - **Founders**: Not publicly disclosed ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Online lottery brokering, e-commerce, and venture investing in lottery-related startups. - **Target customers**: B2C (adult consumers in Germany and Spain who play lottery games). - **Mission or purpose statement**: “Encourage people to dream” by innovating and driving change in the lottery sector while expanding market leadership. ## Products & Services - **LOTTO24**: Online lottery brokerage for German state lottery products (LOTTO 6aus49, Eurojackpot, Spiel 77, Super 6, GlücksSpirale, Keno, etc.).
