Job-specific introduction

As an Angular developer you'll be working on cloud-native applications that support user-facing applications, integrate with various systems, and enable data intelligence. In a world where technology is evolving at an unprecedented (and ever-increasing) rate, it is crucial to have a modular, scalable, extendable cloud platform where updates can be deployed in minutes. It will be the responsibility of you and your team to build such a platform, using the most appropriate combination of cloud, application, and database technologies.

What you’ll do?

• As a part of the team, you’ll be taking part in the continuous development of the products that are in the care of your team.
• Day to day, this means developing new user stories, fixing bugs, creating & reviewing pull requests, documenting your work (code comments, readme, confluence,..), performing research, making suggestions for product improvements, and communicating clearly about your progress.
• Together with your colleagues, you’ll be making sure the product meets all functional and non-functional requirements.
• As an engineer, you understand that producing clean, readable, and testable code is always a priority.
• One of your main tasks is it to implement complex web applications using Angular.
• You engage in general problem-solving and pursuit of best practices within our agile teams.
• Designing the integration between our frontend app and backend services is one of your responsibilities.
• You work closely with our UI / UX experts and software architects.
• Mentoring a junior developer in their journey to become excellent in developing web apps is part of your game.
• Stay up-to-date with the latest technologies and challenge the status quo.

Who you are?

• You hold a master's or bachelor degree in Computer Science/Informatics (or equal through a proven track record).
• Several years of experience in a relevant role (minimum 5).
• You have a solid grasp of common software engineering practices, like OO principles, modern design patterns, test-driven development, continuous integration and continuous deployment.
• You're a big fan of clean code and clean architecture, and you apply those principles to produce clean, readable, and testable code.
• You’re always keen to learn new things, share your knowledge, adapt to change and learn from past experiences.
• You’re able to work in a team and are always open to feedback from your teammates.
• You understand the importance of application security and data security, and know how that affects your job.
• Good knowledge of Angular & TypeScript (Minimum 3 years). Knowledge of React is a plus.
• Good knowledge of the Google Cloud Platform, Amazon Web Services and/or Azure
• Good knowledge of unit tests and debugging techniques.
• Firm understanding of UI / UX methods and approaches.
• Knowledge of database technologies such as Redis, MongoDB, InfluxDB,.. is a plus.
