Programmer - Lisp and other languages at Streamtech bv (Full-time)

Streamtech is a small Dutch company specialized in the development of high quality custom (web) applications. We are looking for programmers who like to write pragmatic but elegant code.

who we're looking for

Elegant code makes you happy.

To you, programming is not just a job but a hobby. You've been programming for fun for years.

You're not blind to practical demands, but you relish doing things the right way. When something seems to work but you're not sure how or why, you bang your head against it until you understand.

You like the net.

You love exploring interesting new languages, concepts and approaches.

Having played with Lisp, Haskell, Erlang, Prolog, Smalltalk, or other non-mainstream languages gets you bonus points. The same goes for language/compiler implementation, kernel hacking, cryptography, etc. Impress us with your need to learn cool stuff.

Because of the unfortunately strict immigration laws, already having permission to work in the Netherlands is also a plus.

the job

You'll be working on the development of our diverse web based projects – in streaming video, lawful interception, narrowcasting, and many other topics – together with the rest of the programming team, from our office in The Hague.

Together with the rest of the team, you'll make applications that are technically elegant and pleasant to work with, using whatever language and technologies suit the project best.

You will be involved in projects from A to Z – including finding out what exactly the customer needs, choosing the best approach for the job, and then making it so.

what we use

In a perfect world, we'd be Lisping all day long. In the real world, the needs of our clients don't always allow this, so there's also quite a lot of Python, and even some C and PHP.

We don't expect you to have experience with all the languages we use, but we do expect you to be able to learn new things and enjoy doing it.

what we offer

A challenging, fun job in a small but professional team that does not think Java, MVC and SOAP are the answer to every question.
