Overview

At Futurice, we create digital services that people love. Together with our clients, we co-create transformational businesses and services to redefine the way humans and technology interact. We show the direction. We design customer experiences. We code. We make you the culture you need. We make future digital businesses. 

In a nutshell

We are looking for people who know their stuff, who are passionate about it and want to learn more – not just a person for a specific position. We want this person to be involved in communicating with the clients and we want them to have a say on how something should look and work. Whether you prefer frontend, backend, or full-stack, doesn’t really matter as long as building usable digital services is your thing. As a Senior, you would be responsible for being a hands-on lead developer in projects, you might be coaching others to learn more and you will definitely be constantly learning new technologies yourself.

Your tasks

• Set up microservices and backends with e.g. Node.js, Scala or Python.
• Create web applications/build smooth single-page apps from the ground up in e.g. React, Angular or Vue.
• Participate in exciting and diverse projects with different clients using agile methods.
• Be a hands-on lead developer in projects.
• Coach others to learn more as well as constantly learning new technologies yourself.

What we’re looking for

• Degree in computer science/informatics or comparable qualifications.
• Well-founded and multi-year experience in Backend as well as in Frontend.
• Whether it’s JavaScript frameworks, REST APIs, NoSQL databases or DevOps – web is your thing!
• Proven ability to implement complex, multi-layered services with high-quality frontend and backend code, e.g. using JS/Node.js, Scala, Java, Clojure, ClojureScript.
• You know how to minify, bundle, and get your code running on e.g. Heroku.
• You are no stranger to HTML and CSS, or looking up DOM elements and setting breakpoints in Chrome’s DevTools.
• Eagerness to learn new things and ‘can do’ attitude.
• Strong and engaging communication skills.

Nice to have

• Experience in cloud computing
• Experience in DevOps
• Agile experience, perhaps even as a Scrum Master
• Experience in creating solution proposals for clients
• Willingness to learn and work on a completely different platform (e.g. mobile) when the opportunity arises
• Experience with IoT devices and services
• Desire and skills to coach and mentor other developers
• Interest in UI/UX design
• Open-source contributor

One or two Nice-to-haves would be excellent. Three would blow our minds. Four may bring us to tears. Your superpower is not on the list? Surprise and convince us!
