The Job in short
As a Python Developer, you are responsible for solution development and support, and you’re the go-to expert for anything Python related. Together with a cross-functional team, you integrate our products seamlessly and on time. As soon as you enter the customer’s world, you’re on your own. The pressure is on, the clock is ticking, and customer expectations are high. You will encounter situations that demand prompt, yet smart actions.
Meet the job
Your goal is to seamlessly integrate our platform into our customers’ systems using Python and then build on top of that, making a final solution perfectly tailored towards customer needs. During projects, you take on the expert role for anything related to Python development.
You will build beautiful code, run tests, and coach a team of developers on the client side. You will provide support by providing advice, mentoring, audits and training on the job. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself presenting technology rationales to a boardroom full of experts. With your confidence and skills, you meet and exceed customer desires. You leave behind an impeccable impression and you will bring home components that can be reused or further developed.
Depending on the customer’s location you occasionally find yourself abroad and on-site during implementations for short periods of time. Since you are the closest link to our customers it is part of your job to work closely with our R&D department for new product development. You think of cool modern features and you signal customer demand.
