Making work easier for our customers


Who are we looking for?


We are looking for a Software Engineer who loves new technology and enjoys experimenting with new ideas, someone with an analytical mindset who always strives for things to be “fundamentally better.”
You have at least 2 years of experience and are fluent in Dutch.

We use JavaScript (TypeScript)/Angular for our interfaces and Java/Apex with SQL/SOQL on the backend. Don’t worry if you’re not familiar with all of it yet, as long as you’ve got the guts to dive into new territory and make it better.

As a developer, you’ll take on one or more of the following responsibilities. The skills in brackets give you an idea of what each task involves. You might not master everything yet and that’s okay. With us, you’ll have the space to grow as you go.


DEVELOPMENT



  • Build robust data models and write technical specifications based on functional analyses (data modeling, analysis, business process experience).
  • Write the backend logic required to automate and support complex business processes (Java/Apex, SQL/SOQL, data modeling, bulk data handling, data migration, force.com, salesforce.com).
  • Create dynamic and user-friendly interfaces to make intricate business processes clear and manageable (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, native DOM manipulation, promises, object-oriented programming, Angular).
  • Guarantee quality by writing automated test code to check interfaces and backend processes for errors (JavaScript, Java/Apex).


COMMUNICATION & ANALYSIS



  • Keep project and account managers informed about the status and progress of your projects (proactive, initiative-taking, budget & time awareness, simplifying complex processes).
  • Identify issues and proactively share creative solutions with your colleagues.
  • Estimate complexity and time requirements for new features or solutions (analysis, budget & time awareness).
  • Streamline data migrations by analyzing legacy data models and flawlessly converting them to new environments (data migration, analysis, spreadsheets).


OTHER



  • Application integration (Java/Apex, SQL/SOQL, data modelling, bulk data handling, experience with APIs, JSON, XML, REST, SOAP)
  • Describing user acceptance test scenarios and carrying them out (analysis, usability, experience with business processes)
  • Following up on, managing and resolving end customer feedback (customer friendliness, budget and time awareness, analysis, solution orientation)
  • Attending (online) courses and exams to keep your knowledge sharp, continuous expansion of your knowledge

Everyone joins in thinking about what we can do better and how. We have noticed that that is the way people get the most satisfaction from what they do. Our loft offices are hip, boasting a courtyard garden and pool table, on the Eilandje in Antwerp, easily accessible by car or public transport.
