Lead developer | Front end Agency

What do they do?

This company is not a full-service software partner. They are a specialized front-end agency that takes on projects that make an impact on the world. They differentiate themselves from the competition. How do they do this? They work with the latest technology and this enables them to execute their projects in the highest possible quality. Kicking against the established order, they advise and implement projects according to their own rules.

As a result, they have been winning the coolest projects for more than 10 years and have a close-knit team of 25 developers. For each project, the developers are divided into teams that are managed by the technical leads. On average, there are 40 projects per year spread over 30 customers. So there is a lot of challenge to be found in differences of complexity and diversity. They also have long-term collaborations with clients who have been around for more than five years.

You can think of great projects for Heineken, NS, Pathé and PostNL to name a few big names. They also work with smaller names that have a big impact on society such as Life terra. So you will find yourself in a warm bath of fun projects with the latest technologies.

What is it what you will be doing?

As a lead developer, you will be working on the various projects they have. The customers, of course, demand the quality customized solutions. You simply make sure they get them. Because of the diversity in the projects, you keep the excitement going. As a senior within the organization, you take the lead in the projects. You can think about communication with clients, architecture choices, guiding junior developers. You will be in direct contact with the customers and will extract the requirements.

You will work together with designers and back-end developers from other teams in an agile environment. Lines of communication are short and communication is fast and direct. Work consists of technical prototypes, component libraries, small websites with headless CMS or large websites with serverless backend architecture. The focus is always on the end user

The techniques here consist mainly of React and Vue, but internal projects also experiment with Eleventy and Svelte. Besides development for the customer, personal development is their top priority. Fridays are dedicated to your ambitions, with knowledge sharing, in-house training, building open source projects, meetups and the "vrijmibo"
