We’re looking for experienced full-stack developers capable of providing technical excellence on a variety of software projects, utilizing both web and mobile technologies. You’ll work on-site with our clients to ensure we’re delivering the best possible solution. You’ll use the latest Lean and Agile thinking, solve mission-critical problems and challenge yourself every day.

Here’s what we are looking for you to bring:

  • Fluency in Java, Scala, C#, Javascript, Ruby, or Python

  • Experience with and understanding of a variety of both web and mobile platforms
  • Passion for writing clean code
  • The curiosity to learn new programming paradigms
  • Techniques such as test driven development and continuous integration / continuous delivery
  • Strong communication and client-facing skills with the ability to work in a consulting environment
  • Ability to work in a variety of client settings and in a team-oriented, collaborative environment
  • Ability to connect with people and to quickly build trust with clients

Here’s what you’ll do

  • Work on medium- to large-scale, custom software systems that leverage mobile and web technologies
  • Work in teams of software engineers - both ThoughtWorkers and clients
  • Help to create and implement significant, end-to-end business solutions on a variety of mobile platforms
  • Work with and influence large enterprises, innovative startups, as well as not-for-profit organizations
  • Employ and advocate for modern technical practices like test automation, continuous integration/continuous delivery, and pair programming and how it pertains to the mobile atmosphere

  • Travel the world.
  • Speak at conferences.
  • Write blogs and books.
  • Develop your career outside of the confinements of a traditional career path by focusing on what you’re passionate about rather than a predetermined one-size-fits-all plan
  • Be part of a company with Social and Economic Justice at the heart of its mission.

Perks:

  • Exposure to a huge variety of client engagements. You could be influencing the digital strategy of a retail giant, building a new mobile application for a bank or redesigning platforms using event sourcing & intelligent data pipelines.
