About this role

As a back-end developer you're, together with the team, responsible for the development and maintenance of digital product that help our clients grow. As a team lead, you'll set the bar when it comes to quality and the way of work within the team. You'll work directly with our client and the end user: you'll advise on technical solutions, manage the planning and expectations and take responsibility for the team's delivery.

You're involved with new project from an early stage. Based on the required functionalities of a project, you'll write a project plan. Together with the team you'll device a technical solution, such as the API, database models and other architecture. That's how you'll contribute to a good experience for end users. We handle a lot of privacy sensitive data and our clients often depend on the products we create, so the quality and security of your work is very important.

The back-end team consists of experienced and passionate Laravel developers. You'll help the team to perform at their best, but you can also expect direct feedback if that benefits the quality of our products. Besides that, you'll work intensively together with the rest of the team, consisting of app (Flutter) and front-end developers, UI/UX designers and sales consultants. We ask you to actively think along with the way can grow our business and service our clients even better, and therefore we'll share our financial data and prognoses.

Besides the work, we like to have some fun together, including city trips to Barcelona and Berlin, hackathons, parties (e.g. when we're exactly 1024 days old), board game nights and we sometimes happen to be at Statumseind when the clubs are closing for the night.
