Who You Are

You are a developer who is excited about solving business problems with technology and understands that code is a means to an end.

Required Qualifications:

• Education: A formal degree (Bachelor’s or higher) in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative discipline.

• Experience: 3+ years of relevant professional experience.

• Tech Stack: Strong familiarity with Python and Typescript. Experience in a low-level programming language or DevOps/MLOps is a plus.

Desirable Skills:

• Frontend: Familiarity with any modern JavaScript framework.

• Modern Tooling: Experience using AI coding assistants in professional environments (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) to accelerate development without losing understanding of the underlying logic.

• Translation and/or interpreting tech: Experience with translation management systems (memoQ, Phrase, Trados, XTM, etc.) and/or speech translation solutions.

• Low-Code/No-Code: Technical or conceptual experience with low-code environments to automate business logic.

• Dutch language skills are a big plus

Your DNA

• High Agency: You take ownership. You don't wait to be told exactly what to do; you see a problem and you propose a solution.

• Pragmatism: You value shipping working solutions over perfect code.

• Curiosity: You are constantly learning about new paradigms and tools.
