Lead Software Developer Maastricht

Do you want to contribute to the dynamic energy market, by taking software to a higher level and working in the middle of a team of developers?

As a lead software developer you develop a state of the art web based enterprise application. You are a natural point of contact for fellow developers and software holds no secrets for you. You work on the further development of a robust front and back end that processes big data and process flows. The user interface is completely web-based, allowing the application to grow along with the latest developments. We use the latest techniques that help us to always set up a 'best in class' interface for our users.

Working at Energy Essentials should be fun and we do not have strict job profiles. The activities are primarily organized around the talents of our employees and the roles we play in various projects. In this way we bring out the best in people and we continue to learn from each other, previous experiences and new insights.

You will help us build and design the new energy transaction platform of the future Vertex. With Vertex, market parties can facilitate the transition within the energy market and set up complex processes. For example, Vertex offers solutions to support and automate processes such as strategic purchasing, delivery, pricing, back testing, messaging, balance maintenance and invoicing. This improves decisions through insight and algorithms (dashboards & trading). Vertex can organize data in such a way that it can be used for smart solutions (decision models) whether or not automated, such as controlling and optimizing sustainable means of production and/or consumption (including windmills, solar parks and batteries or algo trading) or setting up of dashboards for human decision making. Security, business rules, traceability and availability are essential here.
