Introduction
Always dreamt of doing things differently? Join us at Norse Coders, Norse Atlantic Airways\' tech and innovation unit, where we work on Norse\'s future competitive advantages to become a challenger airline. We think differently and we act differently, that\'s why as an airline we are headquartered in a town with no airport. We are not afraid to challenge conventional wisdom and test new ideas. We are a data-driven product organization powered by a team of developers, product managers, data scientists, and a bunch of potatoes (a Norwegian term for people who can do a little bit of everything).
If these prospects inspire you, then we want to talk to you!
