Requirements
* Python is the lingua franca of the company, and we store nearly everything in PostgreSQL. You must master both.
* You master a development framework like Django, Flask or similar.
* You have 5+ years of experience as a software developer or data engineer.
* Your job is to build reliable systems with code. You know how to model a real-world problem into software pieces: you understand the requirements of your colleagues and users and can translate them into features. You pay particular attention to how you architect software.
* We often work with time series and sensor data: you have an interest in data engineering and experience with Pandas/Matplotlib/SciPy…
* Unfortunately, the connected world is hostile! You understand the basics of software security (CSRF, XSS attacks…)
* Sometimes, everything goes south, but you know how to monitor systems and respond to incidents.
* We have users all over the world, the furthest being in Tahiti, so fluency in English is required. Our team is mostly French-speaking, and your life will be easier if you understand French.
* You love learning new things every day and practising them until mastery. You work well in a team and communicate perfectly with your clients and colleagues.
Nice to have
* A previous experience in providing IT services for the industry/manufacturing sector. If you worked with operational technologies (PLC, Scada), it’s even better.
* A previous experience in the service/consultancy world.
* Knowledge of machine learning, data science & statistics
* Knowledge of any technology among Docker, Kubernetes, Clickhouse, C, Redis, Kafka, Google Cloud…
* Also, Belgium is a small country, if you can communicate in het Nederlands too, it’s even better!
We offer
* You can work from anywhere in Belgium. You will visit our customers from time to time. We also have an office in Ixelles if you prefer working there.
* We meet over lunch or a beer whenever we feel like seeing people or discussing projects in person.
* Phone, laptop, Internet, flexible mobility budget (bike, car, transit pass…) based on your needs.
* We have flexible working hours (part-time accepted).
* DKV insurance & dental for you and your family.
* Competitive compensation in a permanent contract (CDI).
