What will you do?

You will be part of the team building the web portal framework – which integrates with into the main business system – with members both in Sweden, United Kingdom and Vietnam. Together you will discuss architectural design, extend the framework functionality as well as build web applications using the framework. The framework brings a server-heavy approach to building web applications; hence the primary programming languages being Kotlin and Java. The client side of the application is built in React, using Redux and Microfrontends. Knowledge and experience of these is a bonus, as is experience with Angular.

The team is warm and welcoming. They like to engage in architectural design discussions and have the ambition of building a phenomenal and unique web application framework - all the while having fun along the way. The framework has been under development for a few years, which means that the project is quite well underway but at the same time it is small enough so that it is graspable for newcomers. There’s a lot of room for creativity, solution design and teamwork.
