Their innovative platform enables tens of thousands of students to learn more efficiently and to reach their maximum potential within Europe! The software you build is therefore extremely tangible and socially relevant. Perhaps this platform could have used your study time to a higher level. Who knows, maybe one of your friends or family members will graduate by means of this E-Learning platform! How cool is that? The company has entered an interesting phase. They want to double in size in the next two years. This applies to both the tech team and the number of end users. This creates enough challenges around architecture, the transition to the AWS cloud, and implementing new tech. Enough to do for years to come! The organization is characterized by its informal and flexible character. The culture is very tight-knit. Apart from a very flat structure (where the CTO is simply your direct colleague) with room to work from home and flexible working hours, people like to do fun things together. Think of lunch together, visiting company parties and conferences. It really is a joy to work here! In addition, there is a close-knit engineering culture here. Lots of freedom, autonomy, and responsibility. This is reflected in regular R&D days where you can work on pet projects, or even contribute to open-source projects. You get all the space for this and this is even encouraged. In short, there is a lot of room to keep growing.

Your role: Java Developer Amsterdam

This way you stay challenged for longer and get the best out of yourself! Moreover, you get the full scope to experiment with the latest open source tech. Think of Kotlin or Micronaut, which they have been working on for the past few months. Almost anything is possible here.

Growth Opportunities

For you as a Java Developer, there are therefore plenty of career opportunities within the organization from Senior to Tech Lead.
