Mobile UI development experience (React Native, Flutter, Kotlin, Swift) is also seen as advantage. Understanding of UI software architecture concepts, cloud platforms and web security are also useful.
Furthermore, we value enthusiasm towards DevOps, experience in building CI/CD pipelines and familiarity with containers (Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes). Familiarity with web accessibility standards (such as WCAG) is highly valued as well.
We expect you to have a relevant Bachelor´s degree (Computer Science or related field), customer-centric mindset, problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
