Last position:
Fullstack Developer at PLANT-MY-TREE
PLANT-MY-TREE®-per-order
The application enables Shopify merchants to automatically place tree-planting orders for every incoming order. By integrating ecological contributions directly into the purchase process, the manual effort for tracking and billing reforestation initiatives is eliminated. The system increases transparency for end customers through real-time visualizations of the ecological impact directly in the storefront. The architecture is based on a modular monolith with Spring Boot in the backend and an integrated React app inside the Shopify admin area. The solution uses webhooks to capture order data in an event-driven way and integrates the weclapp ERP system for automated monthly invoicing. An app proxy mechanism provides dynamic statistics such as CO2 compensation and planted trees without any performance loss for the merchant shop.
Tasks:
- Design of the modular software architecture based on Spring Modulith to ensure high maintainability
- Development of the event-driven business logic for evaluating Shopify orders via webhooks
- Implementation of automated invoicing by connecting the weclapp REST API
- Building the frontend using React Router and Shopify App Bridge for native integration
- Design of the database model and implementation of the persistence layer with JPA/Hibernate and Prisma
- Integration of internationalization processes for global use in the frontend and email communication
- Automation of deployment processes using Docker and GitLab CI/CD
Project skills: Java 25, Spring Boot, Spring Security, Spring Modulith, Hibernate, JPA, REST API, PostgreSQL, Maven, Liquibase, React, TypeScript, React Router, Vite, Node.js, Prisma, Zod, Docker, Docker Compose, GitLab CI/CD, Shopify CLI, Shopify App Bridge, Polaris, weclapp, i18next, Lombok, Vitest

About the role
What they do
Integration developers connect systems that must exchange data without friction. They build interfaces, map fields, transform payloads, and keep business processes flowing across internal and external applications.
- Design API and file-based integrations between ERP, CRM, e-commerce, and internal tools
- Build and maintain middleware, message flows, and event-driven connections
- Handle data mapping, validation, error handling, and retries
- Document interfaces, dependencies, and technical handovers
Common tools
A strong integration developer works comfortably across modern APIs and enterprise stacks. In practice, that can mean REST, SOAP, JSON, XML, OAuth, queues, ETL jobs, and platforms such as MuleSoft, Boomi, SAP CPI, Azure Integration Services, or Kafka.
They also know how to read logs, trace payloads, and debug issues across systems without disrupting operations. The best freelancers are careful with naming, versioning, security, and message structure, because small mistakes can break many downstream processes.
When to bring one in
Companies hire an integration developer when systems need to talk to each other and the internal team is already busy. That is common in ERP rollouts, CRM migrations, platform upgrades, merger projects, and the launch of new partner interfaces.
In Germany, this often comes up in manufacturing, logistics, retail, finance, and B2B software teams that work with SAP landscapes, local service providers, or mixed on-site and remote stakeholders. A freelance specialist is useful when you need focused delivery, not a long hiring cycle.
What good looks like
A strong integration developer does more than code connectors. They understand business processes, ask the right questions about source and target systems, and spot data problems before they become production incidents.
- Clear logic for mapping, transformation, and fallbacks
- Solid experience with APIs, middleware, and messaging
- Careful testing in development, staging, and release paths
- Practical documentation that operations and developers can use
- Calm debugging when multiple systems fail at once
Freelance fit
Freelance integration developers are a good fit when the scope is specific, technical, and time-sensitive. They can join for design, implementation, rescue work, or a short transition period after go-live.
For distributed teams, remote collaboration works well when requirements, access, and test data are prepared early. In Germany, on-site workshops can still help when many departments are involved or when older systems need careful coordination.
Choosing the right person
Look for evidence of real delivery in complex environments. A reliable integration developer can explain interface decisions in plain language, show how they handled failures, and describe how they reduced support effort after release.
The best candidates balance software engineering discipline with process thinking. They are not just coders; they are the people who keep connected systems stable when business operations depend on them.
Frequently asked questions
Curious about Integration Developers? Here are the answers that come up again and again.
An Integration Developer builds the connections between systems so data can move reliably from one application to another. That usually includes API work, message flows, data mapping, transformation, testing, and technical documentation. The role is about keeping business processes connected, not just writing code.
A strong integration developer should understand APIs, middleware, messaging, and data formats like JSON and XML. They should also know how to debug interface errors, handle authentication, and design stable error handling. Good communication matters too, because they often work between business teams and application owners.
An Integration Developer focuses on the interaction between systems and the end-to-end flow of data. An API Developer may work more narrowly on one service, while a Backend Developer often builds core application logic inside a single system. In real projects, the boundaries can overlap, but integration work is usually broader and more cross-system.
A freelance Integration Developer makes sense when you have a defined scope, a deadline, or a temporary skills gap. That is common during migrations, platform rollouts, interface rebuilds, or support for a live project that needs immediate attention. It is often faster than hiring permanently when the need is project-based.
Many projects involve REST, SOAP, OAuth, queues, and file-based exchanges, often with tools such as SAP CPI, MuleSoft, Boomi, Azure Integration Services, or Kafka. The exact stack depends on the system landscape and the type of data exchange. A good freelancer should be able to explain what they used and why.
Much of the Integration Developer work can be done remotely if access, documentation, and test environments are in place. On-site sessions can help at the start of a project, especially when many departments are involved or legacy systems need close coordination. In Germany, a mixed setup is common for enterprise projects.
Ask for examples of past interfaces, failure handling, and how they tested changes before release. A good integration developer can explain trade-offs clearly, show structured debugging habits, and describe how they reduced support issues after go-live. Strong documentation and clean handover are also good signs.
A freelance Integration Developer should be ready to work with unclear source data, changing requirements, and several stakeholders at once. It helps to confirm system access, test data, deployment steps, and ownership early. The best assignments are the ones where technical depth and careful coordination both matter.
The average hourly rate for Integration Developers in Germany is 86 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 688 € based on an 8-hour working day.
