• Testing: Pytest, Selenium.
• Frontend: Angular and TypeScript (no experience required).
• Methodology: We’re Agile Agnostic, adapting agile practices to fit our needs.

• MSc / BSc in Computer Science or a related field
• A passion for Python development, with experience in frameworks like Flask or FastAPI.
• Strong expertise in design patterns and system architecture, with the ability to implement elegant solutions.
• A curious mindset that goes beyond the “how” and dives into the “why” of things.
• Enthusiastic about being part of a collaborative culture, mentoring junior developers, sharing knowledge, encouraging others.
• Attention to detail when it comes to code quality, requirements, and technical designs.
• Based in or near Groningen, or willing to commute.

What We Have to Offer You

• All the essentials: reimbursement of travel expenses from 10 km, pension plan with a contribution from us, 24 vacation days, a one-off remote working budget, career opportunities through our career levelling framework and training/coaching sessions.
• A committed, versatile and open team in an international organisation.
• A laptop of your choice to use for work.
• The possibility to use our mental health partner, OpenUp.
• Hybrid work model (2 days remote per week) after onboarding.
• Monthly internal events and a large company party at least twice a year.
