  • Participate in growing our design practice by keeping your eyes open for important evolutions in our sector and sharing ideas to translate it to our projects

Team

  • Knowledge or experience with Frontend technologies like web, react is considered a plus.
  • Strategic mindset is a plus

What do we offer you?
