Full Stack Engineer @ Editorial Area

Antwerp - As a Full Stack Engineer you will join Editorial Area in our IO CROWD team that works on our Print Ecosystem for all our Print News & Magazines Brands and builds technology based on Python and AWS Cloud (serverless).

Depending on the requirements we believe you should use the right tool for the job. Our backend services are written in either Python or Java.

For us it’s crucial that all team members are multi-skilled. So even the most seasoned backend engineers give love to the frontend or cloud infrastructure and vice versa from time to time.

You’ll work with a small team that is experienced with remote pair programming and has a high “Can Do!”-mentality, no silo’s to be found in this team.

Who are we?

On a daily basis hundreds of journalists of our major brands publish thousands of articles on our products such as Algemeen Dagblad, Het Laatste Nieuws, de Volkskrant, etc...

In order to print an article, it has to go through various phases and services / applications. Implementing, extending and maintaining this “complex” ecosystem with a variety of off-the-shelf and homebrew software is our bread and butter.

The result of this effort can be admired on a daily basis in all our newspapers and magazines in Belgium and the Netherlands.
