Senior Software Engineer

As Milestone continues to grow and expand, we are now strengthening the Software Development department with even more talented Engineers. 

The candidate will join our Platform Integrations and Services unit where they will collaborate with current teams, in its different products and platform areas. We are a product-driven international team, not project-driven.

We strive at developing and growing people, where honesty and transparency is key among peers. In our department we have a relaxed tone, and all are expected to express their opinion. We are working in self-organized teams and each team is empowered to find solutions. 

We are technology driven – we are developing and maintaining one of the most advanced Video Management System (VMS) in the world. We encourage people to innovate and think outside the box to the point where the best ideas materialize into products and features. No idea is too small, and all ideas have the potential to make a difference. We believe our developers have the potential and will to innovate and grow the company even further.

Currently, we are running a big transformation in the company heading towards microservices adoption for efficient code maintenance, smooth updates, and adaptation to the new developing business requirements. 

​We expect you to engage, speak up, and make a difference but always with respect for your colleagues.
