Senior / Software Engineer (R&D, Platform) - IFS Ultimo

IFS Ultimo, an IFS company based in the Netherlands with more than 2000 global customers, is a leading Enterprise Asset Management software provider with a strong reputation for the completeness, flexibility, and configurability of its SaaS EAM solutions.

In the world of Ultimo, asset management processes and the software they require take center stage. At IFS Ultimo we develop easy-to-use EAM software for confident asset owners, enabling them to optimize productivity, maximize asset availability, and secure health and safety. We supply out-of-the-box, though supremely flexible software with an unmatched ROI through short implementations, seamless integrations, and self-service application management.

The Ultimo application consists of various services developed in C#. Together, these make up the back end. The front end is written in JavaScript. Here, we use a proprietary web framework. The current generation of the application runs on Azure Kubernetes. We use various cloud-native techniques to offer a stable and scalable platform. Customers on our Azure platform are automatically provided with fixes and new features bi-weekly.

We set high-quality standards for the work delivered and have high coverage with various types of automated testing. We work with .NET 8 (C#), Xamarin/MAUI, Azure, Kubernetes, Azure SQL, and JavaScript/TypeScript.

Acquired by IFS in July 2022, our parent company operates across all continents with its 5000+ employees delivering award-winning enterprise software solutions to help businesses be their best when it really matters–at their Moment of Service™.

We're looking for innovative and original thinkers to work in an environment where you can #MakeYourMoment so that we can help others make theirs.

In the first phase of setting up the Platform Development discipline, the development focus will be on User Interface / User Experience components, later the focus will diverge.

• Structurally and systematically delivering desired results on the set deadlines

• Excellent command of spoken and written English
• Broad knowledge in the area of software development;
• Minimum of 4 years experience in web development with .Net and Javascript;
• Although we have our in-house developed framework, knowledge of Angular, ReactJS, Vue or another front-end framework is a big plus;

• Possesses up-to-date knowledge of technical developments in the software industry;
• Is able to make good technical architecture choices;

Our roles have the right balance of remote and in-office working to enable flexibility for managing your life along with ensuring a real connection with your colleagues and the broader IFS community.
