If you have the ambition to lay the technical foundation essential for our clients' growth and to build the basis for our AI-driven future, then you are the engineer we are looking for. 

What will you do as a Full Stack Software Engineer?
As a Full Stack Software Engineer, you will ensure that our software services and applications on our cloud platforms (primarily AWS) are maintained and built. This involves working on both the front-end (React/TypeScript) and the back-end (Python), ensuring our systems are reliable, scalable, and maintainable.

• Platform Professionalization: You will design and implement robust solutions for logging, monitoring, and alerting to guarantee the stability and performance of the platform.
• DevOps & CI/CD: You will build and manage automated deployment pipelines with tools like GitHub Workflows, Docker, and Kubernetes.
• Cloud Infrastructure: You will work extensively with cloud platforms (primarily AWS) and manage services such as relational databases (RDS) and serverless functions (Lambda).
• Collaboration & Innovation: You will work closely with data scientists, product owners, and other engineers. You are capable of resolving issues independently and ensuring proper implementation in collaboration with your colleagues. 

Your profile: 

• You have a university-level (WO) work and thinking ability, with a degree in a technical field such as Computer Science or Software Engineering.

• You are highly proficient in working with cloud platforms, with a strong preference for AWS. Experience with AWS Lambda is a nice-to-have.
• Analytical & Independent: You can quickly understand a problem, independently propose solutions, and communicate them clearly to your team.
