The impact you can have

Joining our Support team means on daily basis:

• Helping customers integrate our solutions from developer IDE till the Continuous Integration chain. Both from a software lifecycle perspective (SCM, build, test) and from a business application perspective (authentication, database etc.)

• Experience with system-wide deployments. Because sometimes an issue is not caused by the application itself, but by the network, the underlying server, the database or else


• Investigation skills to understand problems in their context and to ability to reproduce them


• Team player, receiving and giving feedback as well as sharing knowledge


• Can-do attitude: challenging status-quo, leading and contributing to key improvements and innovations
