Job Summary
Build backend features for customer conversation tools using Python, FastAPI, Django, PostgreSQL, and Redis. Take ownership of code from initial idea through production, pairing with colleagues to review work and fix issues as they arise. Navigate a self-managing environment with real responsibility, learning through daily pairings and over-the-shoulder reviews in our Groningen office.
Required Qualifications
- The fundamentals of programming are in place: you can find your way around an existing codebase, and you've written code that other people relied on.
- Curiosity that goes further than 'it runs'. You dig into how things actually work.
- Coachability: you take feedback and act on it, and you're not afraid to admit when you don't know something.
- The ability to explain your thinking to someone who isn't a developer.
- Based in or willing to move to the Netherlands, and up for being in our Groningen office regularly.
- Juniors here learn fastest in the room: pairing, reviews over the shoulder, picking things up by osmosis.
- No experience with Holacracy or self-managing teams needed. We'll walk you through it. The only thing we ask is that you're up for taking action yourself.
- The most important part is that you enjoy taking responsibility and action yourself.
Desired Qualifications
- You are eager to learn, fast. It's something we greatly value.
- It's a bonus if you: Have worked in Python.
- It's a bonus if you: Have shipped something for real users, at work or on your own.
