As a Backend Developer at Basic-Fit, you make sure our software and hardware run smoothly so members have a reliable fitness experience.

• Work closely with Product Owners, Designers, and QA Engineers to ship features that matter

You will work in Tilburg within one of the development teams, alongside React (Native) developers, Node.js developers, Product Owners, Designers, and QA Engineers. To help you become the best version of yourself, you'll also have a Talent Coach who looks out for your personal growth.
