At Shopware, we believe commerce should be open, flexible, and built for the people who use it. Our team operates with a culture of openness and authenticity, where engineers and product teams collaborate closely to push the boundaries of what ecommerce platforms can deliver. We ship continuously, iterate based on real merchant feedback, and maintain a flat hierarchy that encourages direct communication over bureaucratic processes.
As an open-source company, our DNA is community-driven. We optimize for developer freedom and merchant flexibility - not lock-in - which is why we've built on modern technologies like Symfony and Vue.js and maintain strong API-first architecture. Our global team works across Europe with remote-first options, and we prioritize hands-on innovation over rigid corporate structures. From our headquarters in Schöppingen, we've grown from a small startup founded by the Hamann brothers to Germany's leading ecommerce platform, serving ambitious mid-market and enterprise companies worldwide. We don't just write code - we cultivate an ecosystem where merchants, developers, and partners can build exceptional digital commerce experiences together.
