About the role

Senior/Lead full-stack developers at Futurice work across industries to help clients find and create the best digital solutions for their needs-now and in the future. The fundamental role of a full-stack developer is mostly about solving problems. Some days, that means figuring out the most efficient algorithm for a particularly tricky piece of code or reviewing PRs. Often, it means asking a lot of questions to figure out what the important problem to solve and how to solve it in the best possible way for the client. Meetings with the team are often part of the day, and keeping them productive and engaging is everyone's responsibility. Finally, discussing with the client and explaining what we’re doing and ensuring our work fits with the rest of the organization.

Your future team awaits

Digital Solutions business unit serves our clients in varying sectors, including Construction, Energy, Manufacturing, Media, Retail and Travel just to name a few. Our teams’ mission is to help the different industry clients to develop and lead change, from the individual level to entire communities and organizations. Here we provide a wide range of opportunities to make a difference and your mark in developing our client organizations and services - which really turns into an impact to the everyday lives of the people in our society.

Our team in Digital Solutions has close to 180 professionals, and together we combine a wide set of skills and expertise, covering a wide knowledge base on different industry expertise.

Here are some practical things that would definitely help in succeeding in this job:

• We welcome people with a strong programming background and a strong drive to learn more.
  
• You have a solid understanding of modern software development and know well about the principles. Understanding and knowing how to build software in a cloud environment, from actual coding all the way to setting up deployment pipelines, is definitely something that a programmer should know.
  
• You know at least a few programming languages well. You can create something useful with the languages from scratch. You understand the basic paradigms of the languages and know how to connect your code to databases and other external systems. You know their strengths and the weaknesses, and you know where a certain language is used in the real world.
  
• You have experience in using cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP and/or Azure.
  
• You are excited about programming. Motivation is the key! We want people to enjoy their daily work. That's why you should find practical work exciting. When you have an internal motivation to learn new things, facing even the more difficult situations is not a problem. And most of all, you are a team player.
  
• You put people who use the services first. This is particularly important to us. We work with digital services, meaning that we build software for people to use in their everyday lives. It is about understanding who is going to use the software and why.
  
• You bring something extra to our culture. Our culture defines us. It is based on our shared values of Care, Trust, Transparency and Continuous Improvement. It is the glue that keeps us together, and makes us stronger with each talented individual we discover. You should not just fit in but also embrace and enrich our culture.
