Medior/Senior Fullstack Developer for Timetable Application

Overview

Join our team at Nederlandse Spoorwegen, where you'll be integral in modernizing the Donna application with cutting-edge technologies like Angular, Java, OpenAPI, Jenkins, and OpenShift (Kubernetes). As a developer, you play a crucial role in realizing our user stories, working within a scrum team from idea to design to production. You'll be part of a socially responsible and sustainable organization.

Role Description

As a developer for the Donna application, a critical system for scheduling all trains across various carriers, your work ensures that trains operate smoothly. Without Donna, there would be no train service. Additionally, Donna enables ProRail to act as an independent arbiter, fairly distributing limited track capacity.

You will be part of a team at the forefront of renewing Donna in terms of web technology and architecture (microservices). Gradually, parts of the old system are being rebuilt or replaced using technologies like Angular, Java, OpenAPI, Jenkins, and OpenShift (Kubernetes).

In the coming period, we are finalizing the third and last module of our graphical web application, requiring significant backend (Java) and frontend (Angular) development. Simultaneously, we are adding new features to existing modules.

The team is responsible for the entire stack and allocates time for innovation and training. We place high value on mutual assistance and learning from each other—it's a collaborative effort.

Team Environment

You will work in Team Sisyphos, a close-knit group that values collaboration and quality. The team currently includes four developers, a product owner, and a scrum master. We work on-site one day per week, emphasizing the importance of face-to-face interaction to foster team dynamics and effective collaboration.

Requirements

• Minimum of 4 years experience as a developer in a professional environment
• Experience with both frontend and backend development
• Proficient in writing unit tests
• Familiar with Scrum methodologies
• Knowledge of DevOps practices and tools

Benefits

Working at NS means making a difference in the dynamic world of sustainable mobility, helping keep the Netherlands accessible for everyone. You will enjoy considerable freedom, and we promise no two days are the same. Our core values are openness and reliability, and we are committed to delivering results and progressing forward.
