Java Software Engineer

We are looking for a Java Software Engineer to help us build new functionality and add improvements to our software. If you have an eye for writing code and are interested in agile methodologies, we’d like to meet you!

Key about your team

You will become part of the Voluntary Choices team, a cross-functional Scrum team within our Development & Maintenance department. The team is distributed across the Netherlands and India and consists of design engineers, software engineers and test engineers who work closely together to deliver high-quality software.

We embrace an agile mindset. Everyone contributes throughout the entire development lifecycle, from refining requirements and designing solutions to developing, testing and delivering production-ready software.

The Voluntary Choices team develops and maintains business-critical functionality in three main areas:

• Product lifecycle services, supporting the creation, modification and termination of voluntary pension products, including voluntary ANW, extra savings, net pension and voluntary continuation.

• Business process orchestration, implementing event-driven workflows that support participant actions, pension clicks, internal reselections and other pension administration processes.

• Financial processing components, responsible for premium distribution, contribution processing, fiscal validation and batch processing to ensure accurate and compliant pension administration.

Our solutions are used daily by pension providers in the Netherlands, Denmark and Norway and support business-critical processes for millions of pension participants.

These tools are embedded in our development workflow and help us improve productivity while maintaining high standards for code quality, maintainability and security.

As part of our engineering community, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to learn from experienced colleagues, exchange knowledge and continue developing your technical skills.
