Description

Valora digital is the tech unit of Valora. We are a team of developers and product managers that tackle projects that delight customers, improve processes and keep the company ready for the future of retail. We call ourselves builders & doers instead of thinkers & talkers, because we pride ourselves on taking ownership of projects from A to Z and not letting anything get in the way of shipping.

• Evaluate new approaches and solutions to a wide variety of problems
• Improve and maintain our production environment, for example by adding monitoring and alerting (DevOps)
• Help set up and maintain modern development workflows as well as CI/CD pipelines
• Work closely together with our mobile app and data science teams
• Support other developers in your team with your insight and technical guidance

What we'll expect from you:

• 5+ years of software development experience in a general-purpose programming language
• BSc degree in Computer Science, similar technical field of study or equivalent practical experience

• Ability to quickly get up to speed in any programming language or system if needed
