Full stack Dev Engineer

We are a dynamic and innovative bank seeking a skilled Full Stack Developer to join our team. In this role, you will work on enhancing our banking system with a focus on payments, transactions, and Open Banking API, using cutting-edge technologies and microservices architecture. You will collaborate with a team of frontend and backend developers, business analysts, DevOps engineers, testers, and product owners in a Scrum environment.

We value team players who are eager to learn, share ideas, and take responsibility.

If you have 3-5 years of experience in developing JavaScript applications and a passion for new technologies, we would love to hear from you.

The Company:

We are a dynamic bank where all IT systems were traditionally developed in-house. Currently, we are moving to a model where we focus on customer experience and innovative products, relying a bit more on off-the-shelf products and services for basic functionality. We are taking this opportunity to refactor our systems following microservices architecture and Domain Driven Development.

Next to this technical transition, we have moved towards a customized agile organization at all levels of the bank. The Product Factory (for delivery) contains autonomous Feature Teams split by business domain instead of technology. Autonomous means that each team has all the skills needed for its domain, IT as well as business. On top of that, each technology has its own chapter to share and manage the technical experience.

Working in a small bank - especially in autonomous teams - is very different than working in a big bank. Responsibilities are much bigger, knowledge broader. We have a very high growth rate and we are looking for motivated people willing to become part of our dynamic teams to help improve and transform our existing trading and banking system.

Your Role:

You are a team player, always ready to share and discuss ideas in order to improve the existing, and to find solutions for new projects. Everyone is acknowledged for their role, and we need people with a strong sense of responsibility in our teams.

You are able to work independently when needed, dealing with tasks from early requirements analysis until final implementation and testing. You are open to interaction with your colleagues, able to reach out for help when required and open to accept or provide constructive criticism. You are eager to learn about trading and banking related matters, and also about new technologies. When it comes to programming, you are meticulous and orderly, without losing your pragmatic attitude.

You will be joining the team, which is responsible for everything related to payments, banking transactions, Open Banking API, Payconiq, and much more. You will work with several frontend and backend developers, business analysts, DevOps engineers, testers, product owners & a scrum master. As part of the feature team, you will plan, estimate, execute, and deliver features on a two-week sprint basis, participating in all ceremonies, wherever you are, as we have a flexible remote policy that allows you to work from home half of the time.
