You are a full stack developer, eager to work on both frontend and backend technologies. You work on practical, reusable solutions that serve the clients' needs. Together we build applications using both existing and new components.
Experience gets you a long way. An eager mind gets you everywhere. We expect you to know how to develop software applications. You should know how to solve puzzles and how to write code. A diploma shows a lot, so does Open source work and prior work experience. All are appreciated, at least one is required. Developing software is a balancing act.
We look for someone who:
Speaking Dutch is a big plus, the majority of our customers and a big part of the business domain are in Flanders. For practical reasons you must be based in Belgium and have the belgian nationality or a european work permit.
You don’t need to know any of the following, but knowing some is appreciated. We will guide you and provide you with time to learn.
Technologies we use daily are: JavaScript (frontend with EmberJS, backend with NodeJS), Ruby, Docker, SPARQL & Linked Data, Git, Linux (and a little bit of Mac), Emacs, Inkscape, the coffee corner
Other technologies we make use of: Elixir, Common Lisp, Python, Scala, Bash.
Open source examples on github are: lblod, mu-semtech, redpencilio, nvdk, cecemel, erikap, madnificent.
We use existing, publicly available standards and tools — to make data shareable, reusable, and avoid vendor lock-in.
We use the latest frontend technologies to develop responsive and powerful single-page applications — for an outstanding user experience.
We build applications on a domain-specific data infrastructure — improving data modelling and management.
We have long-running projects in the governement and private sectors.
