We're based in the historical center of Amsterdam. We’re an enthusiastic and multi-faceted team of 8 with a passion for travel, design and code. You'll be working closely with us building a super awesome travel app that people genuinely love.

Our ideal candidate:
You’re a seasoned, professional and pragmatic developer with a feel for product and 5+ years experience. You love to travel and enjoy solving complex challenges. If in addition to this, you have experience with large-scale (python) backend platforms, then you’re the rainbow unicorn we’re looking for.

This is where your next adventure will take place! The flight is on us. Try it out here: https://www.polarsteps.com/teleporter

Royal Academy of Sciences | Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Software Engineer | Full-time, onsite only, Visa | $40K – $60K Build open source software that slowly but surely links all historical data in Europe together
We're a team of engineers at the Royal Academy of Sciences in the Netherlands. We build (or implement) Open Source SaaS software that allows users to work their data[1][2]. We're looking for front-end / back-end engineers (we prefer people who like a little bit of both) to add features for exposing the data (search, visualisation) and for working with the data (distributes storage, reasoning/inferring knowledge).
Examples of problems we tackle:
- Given that you have about a million mentions of names in notarial archives of the 17th century, can you make an educated guess at which of those mentions are about the same person? Please note: spelling was optional back then. Birthdates were approximations as well.
- Given that you have two scanned pieces of parchment with handwritten text. Can you detect if they were written by the same author? Can you detect what constitutes the "main" writing and what are the reader's notes?
- Can you extract all mentions of places, people and events from a text. Can you do it with a lexicon that changes over time?
- Given a 12km archive of decisions of a legislative body. Can you use network analysis to find clicques based on voting patterns?
As you can see most of these problems are not "novel" per sé, but they are often made a tad more difficult by the historical aspect. And they sure are fun :)
We provide an environment where people enjoy freedom of work, where our clients understand the uncertainty of experimentation (they're researchers after all) and where all code is published under an open-source license.
We're using python and java (yes, voluntarily), react (I know, sooo 2016) and we're hosting on kubernetes. We don't really care if you've used these exact technologies before, but we do care if you have built up greenfield applications as well as to have worked on applications that have been in development for a few years.
Contract benefits: other then what you get in any Dutch company (which is pretty good, especially for US standards) we provide you with a 38 hour workweek and 30 paid holidays (outside of the national holidays such as christmas)
Interview process: you send us some examples of real applications you wrote -> phone interview -> at a later date a technical challenge (in person or screenshare) -> final interview (finalizing the agreement)

The Long(er) Read
We all know companies that have transformed industries (e.g., Google, Netflix, Spotify) by analysing information about you and giving you personalised suggestions that seem to know you better then even yourself – but where is the equivalent for jobs? Netflix’s recommendations are not based on “back of the box” blurbs - instead, they extract traits from movies and match them to your taste, based on your interactions. So why are we still evaluating people based on their “blurbs,” i.e. their CVs?
We use a combination of unique behavioural data, machine learning, and of course efficient product development, to go beyond the CV and find patterns that humans would otherwise not detect (at least not at scale).
Our longer-term goal is to be not only a preferred destination for transactional hiring, but a compelling, intuitive guide to planning and executing your career goals.
We have just closed a successful fundraising round and are expanding our team! This is a super exciting time to join, as it’s still early enough that you'll help us shape the foundations of the platform and tackle some very interesting problems, yet we’ve already got enough usage, traction and data that you'll have a real, immediate effect on people's lives.
We are very serious about finding the right mix of talent, passion and ownership that meets our values, and is necessary for an ambitious early-stage startup. As we grow, the expectation is that you will too. All doors are open, from diving deeper into a technical speciality, to moving sideways into another area, to mentorship and leadership roles - in the end, it's down to you, your goals and your performance.
If you want to be a part of a big, ambitious story, let's chat!
