What you’ll do

You will play an important part in one of our autonomous problem-solving teams. A problem-solving team is a mix of front-end and back-end engineers, and implementation consultants. They work closely together to build valuable features for our clients. Participating in a problem-solving team means you will:

• Join feature planning meetings where you discuss how to solve problems from an end-user perspective.

• Write feature solution proposals for the product owner.

• Implement your solution with modern techniques in short cycles of two or four days.

• Code review your team’s work and process their feedback on your work.

• Test whether the feature meets our quality standards before deploying with your team.

You'll be involved in every phase of feature development

As a front-end software developer, you'll be involved in every phase of feature development. You will have a lot of freedom and your personal contributions will play a big part in the final product. You will use our component library/design system, UX criteria, and accessibility guidelines to build a user-friendly and easy-to-understand interface. You will make well-considered choices in techniques and frameworks to deliver both value and quality within the time available.

This is where you’ll see yourself

We've noticed that developers with a genuine passion for client-focused SaaS solutions tend to thrive in our dynamic and fast-paced environment.

You are a match if you meet the majority of the following requirements:

• Have 3 to 5 years of experience with React in a SaaS company.

• Have a bachelor’s or master's degree in computer science or software engineering (or equivalent working experience/mindset).

• Are available for 32-40 hours a week.

• Are in your happy place in the back-of-the-front-end.

• Are familiar with test-driven development.

• Possess a willingness and curiosity to improve your engineering skills continually.

• Like working in a multidisciplinary and multicultural team.

• Speak English fluently.

• Live in the Netherlands.

It’s a plus if you have experience with:

• React testing library.

• Chromatic.

• Storybook.

• CSS/design.

Frequently asked questions

What does your work process look like?

We embrace modern software engineering to build better software faster. We don’t have three-week sprints; we deliver a new feature or iteration every 2 to 4 days. We deploy our code as soon as it adds value, meaning we deploy it multiple times daily in practice.

Why such a short development cycle? We strongly believe in taking small steps and working iteratively. The smaller the step, the smaller the risk, both technically and financially. We build on the made step with the next small step, with the ability to adjust as necessary. By deploying quickly, you receive feedback from end-users faster. Nothing is more frustrating than working on a feature for weeks only to find out after delivery that it's not being used as intended.

We deliver a new feature or iteration every 1 to 2 days

What are the training opportunities within the company?

Your personal development is our top priority. At our company, you learn mainly by doing and stepping out of your comfort zone. We encourage you to take on tasks you've never done before with guidance. You are given time and space to explore how things work. Learning is integrated into the feature delivery process in our environment, so there's no time pressure! Furthermore, it's absolutely okay to make mistakes; we provide a safe space for that. Everyone here understands that mistakes are the best teachers.

You will have a coach who will guide you in achieving your personal goals. Together, you will determine the necessary steps to get there. If it's a course you need, you'll have a budget for it. If attending a conference aligns better with your goals, you'll have the opportunity to go. We don't have a fixed training budget; instead, we assess your needs on a case-by-case basis.

What techniques do you use?

We work with the following development stack:

• Front-end: React + TypeScript, Storybook for UI testing

• Back-end: Node.JS, TypeScript + PHP

• MariaDB (MySQL) and DynamoDB databases

• AWS

• Docker

• Github

• Jenkins for CI/CD

What kind of team will I be part of?

Our development team comprises a mix of Front-End and Back-End Software Engineers. We are about 9 strong! But more importantly, each engineer is part of a problem-solving team. This team mixes front-end and back-end software engineers and implementation consultants. Sometimes, it is supplemented with a UX researcher, product owner, and content marketer. Together, you have one goal: to work collaboratively every day on valuable features for our target audience!

Do I work from home or the office?

We love working in the office (because it's fun!), but we also support remote work. All logistics and structures are designed accordingly, so working from home is effortless. We also have a remote-first policy, which means, among other things:

• All important communication happens online via Slack.

• All documentation is online.

• Meetings are conducted online when >1 person are working remotely.
