Java and Python Engineer (Command and Control Systems) for NATO with security clearance

Would you rather your code did something that matters by Friday?

We are hiring three software development engineers to deliver gap capability work packages on integrated command and control systems in The Hague. It is a genuine mix of new build and the harder, more interesting job of modernising software that has been in service for years.

What you will be doing

• Developing, deploying and maintaining server side logic in Java and Python
• Designing data schemas and writing solid SQL behind them
• Working to proper engineering discipline: Git for versioning, CI and CD through Jenkins or GitLab, rigorous automated testing
• Running your work on Linux, with container engines such as Podman or Docker
• Translating UI and UX designs into responsive web applications with Angular or React
• Debugging older code bases and modernising legacy systems

What you will need

• Recent, hands on experience across Java, Python and SQL
• Comfort with Git, Jenkins or GitLab pipelines, and automated testing as a habit rather than an afterthought
• Linux, plus Podman or Docker
• Angular or React in production
• Evidence you have taken on someone else's legacy code and made it better
• Hibernate, Protocol Buffers, gRPC, Ansible, Kubernetes, event streaming, Spring or command and control applications are all a bonus

Why this one is worth a look

Three positions on the same package, so you would be joining a team rather than landing alone. Normal office environment in The Hague, with the work running to the end of the year.

Apply with your CV and we will come back to you quickly.
