You’ll either work on improving the current application, developing new modules, or sometimes implement a customization project for one of the customers.

'Miles’ is built in Java (Java 8-11 / Quarkus / Smart GWT). The database technologies that are currently used are Oracle, SQL Server, and expanding to PostgreSQL.

You will work at the Head Office of an international organization, but one that has an informal atmosphere. It’s an environment in which you can take responsibility and initiative, share your ideas, and take part in the discussion.
