Senior Software Engineer at Seenons bv

Will you help us turning the world of waste upside down?​

At Seenons we are on a mission to bring people together for a waste-free world. Most important is that we’re in it together. No team, no nothing. As there is no time to waste, we are looking for a senior software engineer (onsite / remote) to join our mission!

Make an impact

Waste is a growing worldwide challenge. Each year, in the Netherlands alone, we send 2.75 megatons of waste to the incinerator or to landfill. That is the equivalent of 76 million wheelie bins of valuable materials! This needs to change and that’s why Seenons was started in 2019 with the clear mission to save as much materials from waste as possible and speed up the transition towards a circular economy. We have developed a platform and app which matches fine mesh waste streams with waste processors who give it a second-life. We do this together with 50+ employees in the Houthavens in Amsterdam. As a team we value freedom and ownership, making us go to work full of energy every day. We dare to steer our own course and do things just that little bit differently.

You will love working with us if

• You are excited about building web applications using the latest tools available

• You already love using TypeScript or are eager to learn it. You can also have a look at our full tech stack on Stackshare

• You’re looking forward to design, develop and test backend APIs built for our clients to help them get to zero waste

• You want to work in an agile and international team that isn’t scared of taking on any battle

• You value openness and are happy to receive and give regular feedback to your peers

• You want to contribute to a world with less waste and more circularity
