Job summary

Rotterdam Innovation City is seeking a Software Engineer for Analytical Applications to build tools that turn data into actionable decisions. You will create Generative BI interfaces and planning cockpits that bring forecasts to the decision level, with a focus on speed, readability, and user empowerment.

You will collaborate with data scientists, AI engineers, and client teams, balancing frontend, API, and data integration to deliver production-ready software.

Qualifications

• Strong front-end engineering skills (TypeScript, React or similar) and the design sense to use them well.
• Solid back-end and API experience (Python or comparable), comfortable working close to databases and data platforms.
• A demonstrated eye for UI and UX in data-heavy contexts: you can show us something you built that people enjoyed using.
• Pragmatism about performance: you know why an interface feels fast, and how to keep it that way with serious data behind it.
• You are fluent in English.

Responsibilities

• Design and build web applications on top of data platforms, including decision cockpits and generative BI front-ends.
• Integrate those applications into real business processes: write-backs to ERP, approval workflows, alerts where people already work.
• Make model output understandable on screen: uncertainty, confidence, and the y behind a recommendation, without drowning the user.
• Own the full slice: front-end, API layer, and the glue to the data platform underneath.
• Choose the right weight for the job: full custom build, Streamlit prototype, or low-code, and defend that choice.
• Prototype fast for sales and pilots, then harden what wins into production software.
• Push the whole team's bar on UX. If a first-time user needs a manual, you're not done.
