Working at nbiserv

Our own data centre in Thuringia, a small team with a lot of experience, and a long-term outlook instead of rapid turnover. We don't have an open position posted right now — but we're always happy to hear from good people.

Who we are

Small, technical, since 2003

nbiserv is a Thuringian ISP with its own data centre. Since 2003 we've run hosting, connectivity and telephony for mid-market customers — and we do most of it ourselves, from the hardware to the billing.

We keep the team deliberately small. That means short paths, direct decisions, and the chance to work on more than a single slice of the tech. People who join us tend to stay for a long time — there's rarely something we can't show or pass on.

We don't always have positions listed. But good people almost always find a spot with us. If you're wondering whether this might be a fit — just write to us.

Why nbiserv

What to expect here

Our own data centre

No cloud theatre. The machines, switches and routers you look after are ones you can touch — and sometimes you'll have to.

Flat hierarchy

No layers between decision and execution. If you raise an idea here, you'll usually have an answer by the end of the day.

Modern stack, used pragmatically

Go, SvelteKit, PHP (Symfony), Linux, in-house APIs. We modernise continuously — but only where it actually helps.

Long-term perspective

No VC pressure, no exit strategy. We've been on the market for over twenty years — and plan to still be here in another twenty.

Flexible working

Partial home office, core hours instead of mandatory presence. Tech that works in the office works from home too.

Keep learning

Budget for conferences, certifications and books. If you want to try something new, you get the time for it.

Areas

Where we typically take people on

Even without a specific posting: these are the directions in which joining us usually happens.

Linux & network (m/f/d)

Servers, network, monitoring, and the night-time emergency line. If deep infrastructure is home territory for you — and BGP, DNS or iLO don't scare you — you'll fit right in.

Software development (m/f/d)

Our customer platform, APIs and internal toolchain — currently being migrated from Symfony to a Go API plus SvelteKit. If a genuine strangler-fig migration sounds interesting, there's plenty to do.

Customer support (m/f/d)

The direct line to our mid-market customers. No ticket system with scripts — just technically literate listening, explaining, and fixing.

How it works

The path to us

  1. 01

    Send your application

    A short email with your CV and a sentence about what appeals to you. Formalities are optional — substance isn't.

  2. 02

    Technical conversation

    30–60 minutes with the team. No puzzle questions, no whiteboard algorithms. We talk about what you've actually done.

  3. 03

    Trial day or small project

    A day on site with us or a small, paid project from a distance. So both sides know what they're getting into.

Sound like a fit?

Tell us briefly what you do and what you're looking for. We usually reply within a few working days — always personally, never with a template rejection.
