Student software developer
Ready to build scalable, reliable systems? Are you curious about technology and eager to engage with domain experts to deliver real value. This job might be just what you are looking for!
Here’s what the job entails
In this role your primary function will be to develop and integrate components in our system landscape. You will design systems that collect, manage and present data pre, during and post trading with the focus being creating top class user-experience. Furthermore, in close collaboration with the end-users you will design, implement, and support the systems.
Concretely, your areas of responsibility will include the following:
- participating in the complete development cycle from idea, through execution to delivery
- working with the entire tech stack tools, which includes distributed systems in Python, .NET C#, UIs with Blazor, APIs in gRPC and REST, messaging with Apache Pulsar, CI/CD and OpenTelemetry
- openness to learning and developing within the domain of energy trading
Meet the team
The primary goal of the team is to develop and maintain systems used by the traders and trading operators and to make those systems as effective as possible. Our development philosophy is that systems should be robust, scalable and reliant. We work closely with the end users and work diligently to ensure a steady feedback loop.
We work as a team, taking on tasks outside our comfort zones to share knowledge and grow together. Our group of seven developers is dedicated, curious, and values both collaboration and having fun while tackling challenges. We prioritise solving problems thoroughly rather than quickly.
Are you looking to start your career in software development? Join our team as a student software developer and gain valuable insights and hands-on experience in cutting-edge technology projects. Dive into real-world challenges, collaborate with industry experts, and accelerate your growth in a fast-paced, innovative environment.
But enough about us… over to you!
As you will be working with software development, we imagine that you are an innovative individual with a drive to naturally take responsibility for tasks. We also expect that you will take a positive view on challenges and that you are ready and open to learning how we work and operate in the team. Lastly, we value solutions-oriented approaches and believe that the right for the role does as well.
Furthermore, we imagine that you:
- are enrolled in a relevant education within software engineering, computer science or similar
- have basic programming skills
- have an analytical mindset
- can work 15-20 hours a week
- are proficient in English, both written and verbal
