We are looking for a Agile Coach / Software Developer, where you get to combine technology, agile methods and coaching a team on the way forward.

We are currently working with the next generation of our test framework to meet future demands on scalability and reduced complexity for end users. While doing that we will change the main programming language from Python to Go, focus on scaling test capabilities by using virtualization with docker and Kubernetes and design web interfaces for configurations and visualizations of test results.

As a team, we value openness and sharing of knowledge, recognizing that all members are juniors on some topics and seniors on other. We give no refuge to holy cows or the status quo, new ideas about how we should build our platform are always welcomed and encouraged. We pride ourselves on being able to change our minds the second we hear a better solution to a given problem.

So, who are we looking for?
