We're the ticketing platform behind major theme parks, zoos, and experience villages across Germany and the USA. Spin-off from COMBASE AG focusing on leisure/culture.
The situation:
2-engineer team building on COMBASE's platform. We handle online ticketing, visitor management, capacity control. CSO just joined from major competitor, closing enterprise deals. We're staying lean using AI tools to compete with larger competitors.
Technical challenges:
- Multi-tenant booking with venue-specific business logic (pricing rules, capacity, timed entry)
- Real-time capacity management across access zones
- Integration with COMBASE platform
- Making AI-augmented development work in production
The role:
Lead engineer working with founder. Own features E2E, architecture decisions, full-stack but backend-heavy.
You fit if:
- 3+ years shipping production code
- Excited by small teams doing more with AI
- Prefer ownership over structure
- Rails or quick to learn
Stack: Rails, Svelte, PostgreSQL, GraphQL, GCP
Perks: Remote (occasional Berlin meetups), MacBook + home office, free attraction admission, stable backing (COMBASE: 80+ people, 3 decades)
Apply: jobs@toucantix.com
Include: CV/LinkedIn, a technical challenge you're proud of, why this interests you, favorite attraction. in subject.
Your code will run the gates at zoos and theme parks across Germany and the USA. When families scan tickets, when capacity limits kick in based on visitors and available resources (staff, equipment, facilities), when dynamic pricing adjusts for weather - that's our Rails app making real-time decisions for thousands of visitors daily.
We're 5 engineers at ToucanTix (sister company Combase has 80+). You'd have serious ownership and architectural influence from day one.
Technical challenges that actually matter:
Multi-tenant architecture supporting 100+ venues with wildly different business logic. Offline-first POS that syncs flawlessly. Complex pricing rules (weather + season + capacity + customer type) that need to stay performant. Hardware integrations with access control and payment systems.
Stack: Rails 7+ API with GraphQL (graphql-ruby), PostgreSQL doing serious heavy lifting with multi-tenant architecture, Redis for speed-critical stuff, SvelteKit frontend (if you're full-stack curious), Google Cloud infrastructure (Cloudtasker, Cloud Storage), RSpec/Capybara keeping everything bulletproof
You: 5+ years Rails. Strong at PostgreSQL optimization. Have architected systems for performance and scale. Comfortable owning technical decisions.
Us: Real ownership. No layers of management. Async-first remote culture. Profitable company, not burning VC cash. Your work has physical impact - people literally can't enter the attraction if your code breaks.
