As a Senior engineer, you will contribute to the frontend development of our self-flying inventory drone system application. This solution helps clients automate inventory management and delivers a zero-error warehouse.

As part of your main responsibilities, you will drive the development of new front-end functionalities by leveraging the collaboration with your product manager, guided by the user interfaces produced by our design team.
Additionally, you will help establish a culture of engineering excellence. You can expect to focus on topics like improving the frontend architecture, our testing strategies, establishing agreed practices, and coaching your peers to help them master their skills.

Verity is the global leader in autonomous indoor drone systems. Our integrated inventory tracking system enables zero-error warehousing for big box retailers, third-party logistics providers, and manufacturers.

Verity’s system is used by industry leaders around the world, including DSV, Maersk, and Kehe. Verity's live events solutions help create stunning effects for top names in the entertainment industry like Drake, Céline Dion, Justin Bieber, Metallica, and Cirque du Soleil.

  • Extend, maintain, and improve our test suites and cooperate with the QA team to iterate our testing strategy
  • Identify and address technical debt as part of the day to day feature development
  • Lead initiatives to establish a culture of technical excellence, which helps the team deliver high quality solution
  • Coach and mentor your peers to help them understand our quality standards and deliver at the same level
  • Challenge the status quo, identify and raise awareness about bottlenecks, and provide feedback to your team and organization on how to continuously improve

What you bring

  • You have a degree (FH, BSc, MSc) in computer science, software engineering, or equivalent experience
  • You have at least 5 years of professional experience working on frontend applications
  • You have deep experience with modern frontend frameworks (e.g. React) and technologies (e.g. Typescript, HTML, and CSS)
  • You set high standards for code quality, and care about delivering code that is easy to read, to maintain, and to extend
  • You understand the value of testing, you know how to structure tests, and implement them at the right level of abstraction
  • You are fluent in English, both written and spoken.
  • Nice to have: python knowledge and interest to sporadically help developing our backend infrastructure

Who you are

  • You want to make a difference, eagerly work your way toward excellence, and have fun while doing it
  • You are curious, challenge yours and others’ beliefs, and are committed to continuously learn new things
  • You're independent, accountable, and focused on achieving your goals and tasks
  • You deeply value communication, are transparent, and like going to the point in a kind and compassionate way
