.Net Software Engineer
We are currently looking for talented software engineers with a few years of experience doing C# development and maybe a handful of projects under the belt. The ideal candidate is passionate about technology in general and excellent in software development in particular. Working in an agile team is something you’ve embraced a number of years ago and you’d find it hard to work any other way. The thought of writing code without automated (unit) testing frightens you because you know automated testing is the key to quality software that you and others can maintain, grow or shrink – whatever the case may be – with ease.
