We are looking for an incredibly talented backend developer to join our development team here at Propertyfinder. We believe in nurturing your talent and we encourage creativity and autonomy where you are free to grow and develop your career in a fun, forward thinking and positive environment.
As a company, we are very performance oriented and test the performance of all code and database queries, but we always ensure that this does not affect code quality and legibility.

We are big proponents of Agile development methods with small cross-functional teams fully empowered to take an idea from inception and to be able to deliver it fully tested into production with minimal outside disruptions. Because of this you will need to be able to work well with others in your team and be able to contribute meaningful ideas on how to best achieve your objectives and key results.
