    We (Frende) are hiring

    13. May 2011

    imageWant to work for a great performing and highly skilled team primarily focusing on (but not limited to) Microsoft .NET? To give you a high level (technical) overview of what we’re currently working with, here’s a list:

    • C# 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010
    • ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET
    • TDD (Test-Driven-Development)
    • Executable Specifications using Specflow (similar to Cucumber in Ruby)
    • DSL’s
    • StructureMap (IoC)
    • NUnit
    • NHibernate (ORM) using FluentNHibernate and LinqToNHibernate
    • NServiceBus
    • JQuery
    • Continues Integration using TeamCity
    • Continues Deployment using WebDeploy
    • Source Control in TFS
    • Everybody is Pair Programming
    • Kanban

    As you can probably see we’re doing web development only and you’re spot on! There’s a variety of applications ranging from online insurance shop to backend sales applications.

    Our team is very much eager to learn and teach each other new techniques and technologies to improve planning, development, quality and delivery of the systems we create. As a member of our team you will be quickly integrated by participating in Pair Programming and take part in decisions and discussions from day 1. We don’t believe in having dedicated experts, but rather generalists that are able to be part of the complete development process, resulting in reduced handoffs. That being said, we all have areas of interests that we focus more on than others.

    Quality is something we take seriously and therefor we use Executable Specifications (BDD) to define requirements as well as a communication tool with the business. We also need to have tests for our code units, create good design and have code that is Clean. That’s why we use a unit testing framework together with TDD.

    Generally we’re looking for skilled developers. If you would like to work with the technologies mentioned earlier and also have a interest for and motivated by increasing quality by technical testing and you are a team player – then you are hired! You will then be the team member that has a special interest in driving our progress around Executable Specifications, TDD and any existing or coming tools that will improve our communication with the business as well as code and product quality.

    Secondly we also practice Continues Deployment and Continues Integration, have lots of VM’s and have full control of our deployment environments. If you are a person that like some Operations work from time to time in addition to development, your are our new team member!

    Last but not least, Frende is a small and young insurance company where communication flows quickly and decisions paths are short.

    If this sounds interesting to you or you want to know more, drop me an email at jon@mydomain so we can have a chat.
