4. Confer with business consultants and testers about business needs, bugs, and so on.
5. Create designs, prepare work, guide more junior profiles...

Your interests and skills?

A passion for developing and building solutions is at the top of our list.

As a Software Engineer, it is also key to be able to keep the bigger picture in mind and how different elements are intertwined.

Problem-solving is one of your strongest abilities, and you do this in a methodical way. If you are a team player as well, you’re the perfect blend of soft skills.

We’d love to see the following aspects as well:

1. You have some years of experience within an engineering role.
2. You have knowledge of the following technologies:
   • Java 17, Java EE7
   • Knowledge of relational databases like Oracle, SQLServer, Postgres
   • Experience or knowledge with front end technologies (such as Angular) are a nice plus.
3. You are fluent in English, as we are an international and multicultural company.

What we offer?

We would like to welcome you to an international and multicultural company that has been operating for over 30 years and is doubling in size every 5 years. Growth is our middle name, while we strongly adhere to our horizontal and open company culture.

You're in the drivers' seat of your own career, that's our motto. Your personal development is therefore paramount. During an extensive onboarding program of six months, we make you, with the support of your job coach, familiar with our product and the organization. Even after this period, you will continue to get opportunities to learn and develop yourself further. You’re never alone.

At Sofico you will also work in a modern office where we focus on ergonomics.

In return for your efforts, we offer an extensive salary package, including a company car, a bonus system, and a pension plan. The flexible office hours and opportunities to work from home up to two days per week provide the necessary flexibility within the company.

At Sofico we are strong believers in the power of a good cup of coffee. Water or soft drinks are of course also on the menu. We love our team events. Think after-work drinks, a BBQ, a family day, a company weekend, or a walking dinner with the whole company.
