Full-Stack Developer

We are looking for a full-stack developer for our team in Leuven. As a full-stack developer, you’ll build AI-infused digital solutions that deliver real impact. If you’re eager to enable cutting-edge technology like artificial intelligence to reach its users most optimally, you might be the person we are looking for.

As a full-stack developer, you’ll take on a key role in developing both front-end and back-end web applications. You will collaborate with the entire development team to create innovative applications from start to finish: think of making architectural decisions, developing easy-to-use deployment pipelines, and maintaining our existing solutions.

In addition to working our custom (generative) AI projects, our clients can count on you for longer consultancy-based assignments. These range from short assignments — 3 to 6 weeks — to longer assignments — 3 to 6 months — where you’ll be able to demonstrate your expertise.

Summarized: you’re open to new challenges and you’re a genuine team player who’s totally ready for their next career move.

Job requirements

  • BSc/BA in computer science, engineering (or a related field) or relevant field experience
  • Familiarity with working on projects with AI components like LLMs, speech-to-text, text-to-speech, generative models…
  • You can juggle (oversee) multiple projects at the same time
  • You have a knack for solving problems swiftly, without cutting unnecessary corners
  • You have 4 years of experience

Technical experience

Here's our tech stack - experience with these specific technologies is great, but we equally value relevant experience with similar tools and frameworks.

  • Solid knowledge of JavaScript and a front-end framework like Next.js or React
  • Back-end experience, preferably building APIs with Python, Node and/or Java
  • Vector database experience (like PostgreSQL and ElasticSearch)
  • You develop highly secure solutions, with privacy, compliance and accessibility in mind - including awareness of GDPR and the EU AI Act

Bonus points if you have:

  • Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes, preferably on a cloud platform (AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud)
  • Experience setting up CI/CD pipelines (Bitbucket pipelines/Cloud Build/Azure Pipelines…)
  • Experience serving an AI model as an endpoint

In return for your experience, enthusiasm, and motivation, we offer you:

  • A dynamic and entrepreneurial environment with a strong team of data scientists, full-stack developers and AI engineers
  • A great company culture in a start-up environment with fun team events
  • A delicious and healthy lunch with the team on office days
  • Various exciting AI projects for which you can make a direct impact
  • An interesting salary package and everything you need to do an amazing job (Macbook Pro/Dell laptop, company car, insurances, meal compensation, mobile phone subscription, internet subscription…)

Got a question?

How does your hiring process work?

->

Everything starts with your application, of course! If you see an open position that seems like a match made in heaven, send us your resume. We'll review it and reach out to you to plan a introductory meeting if it seems like a match (on paper). If that first meeting goes well, we'll plan a technical test (if necessary) and an interview with some people on the team. This way, we'll know for sure if you'll fit in. If all goes well, we'll give you an offer you hopefully can't refuse.

Are you remote-friendly?

->

Yes! We value a hybrid work environment, which means you can work at home, at our offices, or in your favorite coffee shop. You decide where you want to work, but we do love it when our team comes together on our weekly "team days" (two times per week). We promise, you'll love it too.

What are your values?

->

Curiosity, entrepreneurship, collaboration, and inclusivity are the things we value most at Raccoons. We get energized when exploring new technologies, when people get behind the wheel and take action, and when the whole team works together to get the best results possible.

Is it all work at Raccoons, or also play?

->

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, and "being dull" is the last thing we want to be. So, of course, we make time to have fun and strengthen our team atmosphere in teambuilding and afterwork activities. Each month, we have a drink 'n sync where our team comes together for some drinks and to catch up; we regularly have diverse teambuildings; and each year, we go on an amazing teamweekend (video proof above!).
