You won't just talk about AI-assisted development. You'll lead by example, using AI coding agents every day and showing your teammates how to get real value from them.\nOur product landscape spans modern applications built with C# and .NET and long-lived systems in COBOL, Delphi, PowerBuilder, FoxPro and WinDev that still run critical business processes for our customers. In this role you’ll work across both, and we use AI agents throughout to work faster and smarter.\nThat means building features and shaping architecture on the modern stack, and equally using AI to understand, document, maintain and modernize decades-old codebases. Often the most interesting work is where the two meet: bringing legacy logic into modern architectures.\nYou might come from a .NET background or from one of these older technologies; either is a good starting point. Prior experience with the legacy stack is a plus but not required. What we do need is genuine willingness to work on both, curiosity to dig into unfamiliar code, and the creativity to use AI agents to make sense of it and move it forward. If you’re only looking to work on modern technologies, this probably isn’t the right fit.\nYour Responsibilities\nAI Advocacy\nLead by example in the daily use of AI coding agents (e.g. GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) across development, testing, documentation and code review.\n\nConfigure and maintain agent setups for the team: rules, instructions, prompt libraries, context files and reusable workflows.\n\nShare what works: run demos, pair-programming sessions and short internal workshops, and help teammates build confidence with AI tools.\n\nIdentify repetitive tasks that can be accelerated with agentic approaches and propose practical improvements.\n\nKeep an eye on the AI tooling landscape and bring relevant, pragmatic ideas back to the team.\n\nModern and Legacy Systems\nDevelop, maintain and evolve applications across our full landscape, from C# and .NET to older technologies such as COBOL, Delphi, PowerBuilder, FoxPro and WinDev, including bug fixing, new features and ongoing improvements.\n\nUse AI agents throughout your work to write, review and test code, and to analyze, document and explain legacy code, business rules and data flows.\n\nContribute to modernization initiatives, helping plan and execute migrations from legacy systems to modern architectures and making sure business logic carries over correctly.\n\nHelp shape the design and architecture of our modern stack so it’s ready to absorb what’s being modernized.\n\nBuild and maintain a shared knowledge base so expertise in both legacy and modern systems is spread across the team rather than held by a few people.\n\nDevelopment & Quality\nDesign, develop and maintain features across backend and frontend applications.\n\nWrite clean, maintainable code following SOLID principles and good architectural practices.\n\nTake part in code reviews, giving and receiving constructive feedback.\n\nWork with CI/CD pipelines and cloud environments to build and deploy your work.\n\nCollaboration\nWork closely with product, QA, DevOps and other engineering teams.\n\nSupport and mentor less experienced engineers, especially in AI-assisted development practices.\n\nWhat We're Looking For:\nMust have\n4 to 6 years of professional software development experience.\n\nProven hands-on, day-to-day experience with AI coding agents such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor or Claude Code, including configuration and rule/instruction management.\n\nExperience building agentic workflows, MCP servers or custom AI tooling.\n\nGenuine openness and willingness to work with legacy technologies\n\n(COBOL, Delphi, PowerBuilder, FoxPro, WinDev).\nSolid experience with at least one modern stack, ideally C# / .NET and/or React / TypeScript / JavaScript.\n\nExperience with relational databases and SQL.\n\nPractical experience writing automated tests (unit, integration and/or end\u0002to-end).\n\nFamiliarity with Git, CI/CD pipelines and Agile practices.\n\nNice to have\nPrevious experience with any of COBOL, Delphi, PowerBuilder, FoxPro or WinDev.\n\nExperience in legacy modernization or migration projects.\n\nExperience with cloud environments (Azure, AWS or GCP) and Docker.\n\nExperience with testing tools such as Playwright, Cypress or Newman.\n\nLanguages\nFluent in English (mandatory).\n\nFrench and/or Spanish is a plus.\n\nInterpersonal Skills\nCuriosity and a learning mindset: you enjoy figuring out how things work, old or new.\n\nNatural ability to share knowledge and bring others along, without being dogmatic.\n\nStrong analytical and problem-solving skills.\n\nClear communication and collaboration in cross-functional teams.\n\nOwnership: you drive initiatives to completion.\n\nOur Recruitment Process:\n1. 15-minute introductory call with our Talent Acquisition Specialist.\n2. Meeting with Hiring Manager\n3. Technical interview, including a conversation about how you use AI agents\nin your daily work.\nWhat We Offer:\nWe understand that flexibility and trust are essential for our teams. Here are some of the benefits we offer:\nRemote Work: Up to 3 days a week!\n\nWork-life balance: We have flexible entrance and departure time.\n\nSummer schedule on Fridays: Start early your weekends!\n\nReferral Bonus: €1500 for every talent you refer (after 6 months).\n\nFlexible Remuneration: COBEE platform.\n\nPrivate Medical Insurance: Adeslas.\n\nContinuous Learning: Access to our internal platform for continuous development.\n\nVacation: 23 vacation days plus an intensive schedule in July and August.\n\nTeambuilding: Our afterworks and activities are memorable!\n\nDiversity, Inclusion & Belonging\nAt Nextlane, we are committed to creating a space where everyone feels valued and respected.
