Description
About Cronos Europa Portugal
Cronos Europa Portugal is the Lisbon delivery centre of Cronos Europa, part of the Cronos Group — a technology federation of 9,000+ professionals and 600+ competence centres across Europe. From our office at IDB Lisbon we deliver application development, architecture, and IT operations for major European organisations, working as an integrated nearshore extension of our clients' teams.
This position is with Cronos Europa Portugal: the person contracts directly with us, as an employee or as a B2B contractor, joins our Lisbon team and is assigned to a long-term client engagement.
About the client
A major European organisation operating mission-critical aviation systems
The client's engineering teams work closely with its functional experts to make European aviation safer and more efficient. They build a wide variety of data-driven solutions that combine operational expertise, technical expertise and uniquely valuable European aviation data.
The solutions run mainly on Microsoft Azure and are deployed through Azure DevOps pipelines. Teams follow SAFe / Agile. AI-assisted development is part of how the teams work, and the client values demonstrated experience over familiarity with the concepts.
The role includes regular work on site at the client in Brussels: about 30 working days per year, typically 5 consecutive working days every 2 months. There is some flexibility in how these days are spread. Candidates must accept this from the start.
About the Role
We are looking for senior Full Stack Developers to join one of the client's development teams and deliver features end to end, from the user interface to the backend services and the data.
The current stack is Java and Spring Boot with React and TypeScript, running on Microsoft Azure and deployed through Azure DevOps.
The shape of the profile
A senior engineer who delivers a feature from the database to the screen: Java / Spring Boot on the back end and React / TypeScript on the front end.
Both tiers at a professional level. A CV that is all front end with Java only as a side note, or all back end with no real React work, does not fit this profile.
The client also values good interface design: clear, consistent and easy-to-use screens, even for applications with complex data.
