• Investigation of current implementations and solutions and improving these to new standards;
• Designing, developing and testing innovative solutions in a variety of coding languages;
• Implementation of future-proof security standards;

By offering free lunch at the office and regular fun team activities like escape rooms and fun dinners, we ensure a connected and social workplace. Also important; we will provide you with a public transport card and/or (electric) bike. All on us of course. Furthermore:

• A salary of €3.850 for master's graduates, including holiday allowance and 13th-month salary;

• Pro bono technical projects at socially relevant NGOs.

What are we looking for?

We are looking for graduates with different IT related backgrounds, experiences, and passions. It speaks for itself that you are ambitious, self-reflective and dare to be confident in an authentic way.

Furthermore, you are energized by stakeholder management and are well adept at gathering reliable information.
