About Troido

What is Troido?

Troido is a software development consultancy with 21+ years on the market, headquartered in Düsseldorf, Germany. Founded as a Java + Spring Boot specialist, the team has grown to deliver mobile apps for iOS and Android, IoT and Bluetooth Low Energy solutions, scalable backends on AWS and Google Cloud, software audits and optimisation, AI integrations (including image analysis and speech recognition), and Android Automotive applications.

Reported scale: 200+ projects completed, 300+ clients worldwide, 20+ million app installations, and 6 European locations. Notable client work includes Vodafone Shop (the multi-language Shopify-based shop with iOS/Android apps, MORE THAN 4 MILLION ACTIVE CUSTOMERS), MyPiggy (IoT piggy bank with firmware + backend + Android app), FriendsUp (German startup whose stability + in-app payments work led to 120% revenue growth in 6 months), and Smart Tank (end-to-end iOS/Android + backend + hardware + firmware for secure fueling). Testimonial clients include DB Systel GmbH, Vodafone Group, and Cheil Germany.

Where will I work?

Troido has six European offices: Düsseldorf HQ (Volmerswerther Straße 80-86, 40221 Düsseldorf), Zagreb (Croatia), Novi Sad (Serbia), Bucharest (Romania), Lisbon (Portugal), and Warsaw (Poland). The careers page banner reads "On site or 100% remote!" — team members can work from Düsseldorf or Zagreb offices, or "any place of your choice while traveling." Current open roles are advertised for Düsseldorf but remote-within-Germany is supported.

What is the Troido team like?

Troido is led by Miki, the CEO & CTO, and runs as an international team of mobile experts across the 6 European locations. The culture emphasises mentorship — "Mentoring is a really important part of your career path and we are dedicated that you learn from the best." Every Friday is dedicated to learning ("Green Fridays"), and the company purchases any technical book a team member requests. The company highlights a clear career path "where you decide how fast you move up."

Work-Life Balance

Every team member works a 4-day work week: "We work only 4 days or 32 hours in a week." Fridays are off but framed as "Green Fridays" — paid learning time rather than just time off, designed to support ongoing skill development. Overtime is not the norm; the careers page treats sustainable pace as fundamental.
