Front-end (Angular) Engineer

Do you want to make a significant impact and shape the future of Angular web applications? At Zivver, you can.

We’re currently looking for an Angular Engineer to help us bring new products to the market. You’ll be working closely with designers, product managers, customer-facing teams and other engineers to build new features and continuously enhance our existing ones.

At Zivver, we're building the future of secure digital communications. Our platform (a SaaS application that is served to our users as an Angular web application, Outlook web add-in, Chrome extension, mobile app and several other frontends) helps hundreds of thousands of users secure their sensitive digital communications, and we're growing globally.

Our guiding philosophy is that secure communication requires excellent usability. As an engineer, that's where you'll be making your most significant impact!

Hot takes

• You prefer building over tweaking.

• Write tests now, avoid bugs later.

• As a TypeScript believer you can’t understand why people would ever go back to plain JavaScript.

• Unreported bugs give you nightmares.

What you will do: 

• Write, review and maintain web application code, primarily in Angular.

• Understand the importance of planning and are able to take the lead and prepare work for technical implementation.

• Be able to coach and grow less experienced engineers and share your knowledge in a constructive way.

• Participate in the whole lifecycle of features, from design and implementation to testing and maintenance.

What you will bring:

Skills / Experience: 

• Strong background in Angular and NgRx state management.

• Solid experience with unit testing using tools like Jest, Karma, or Jasmine — including test coverage strategies and testing state management logic.

• Familiarity with monorepositories (preferably using Nx).

• Experience working with Design Systems and tools like Storybook.

• Understanding of accessibility standards and best practices is a plus.

• Experience integrating and consuming REST APIs.

• Familiarity with DevOps/CI/CD processes and working with tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar.

• Experience working with Express server.

• Knowledge and experience with Amazon Web Services (AWS) IaaS services is a plus.

• Demonstrated experience leading initiatives/projects successfully within a team, with strong ownership mindset.

• Understanding of Scrum and Agile principles — able to contribute to team ceremonies and help the team meet its goals.

• Formal education in a technical field; even better if you hold a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related discipline.
  

Personality / Attitude:

• You're comfortable communicating in English both verbally and written.

• You speak up from a position of knowledge.

• You like to help your colleagues develop to the next level.

• You have a strong appreciation for the user and keep their needs front and center.

• You see software development as a collaborative effort. You're happy to help others and not afraid to ask for help when you need it.

• Speed and quality are what you’re about. You know your craft and you #get-it-done.

• Organized and structured is your approach to life and code.

• Straight forward, direct, but respectful with a big smile.

If you’re still reading and excited about this role, we welcome your application, even if you think you don’t meet all the requirements. We understand that no candidate is perfect and would love to hear your story.

Benefits: 

• An exciting, fast-growing, energetic environment.

• International diverse team with over 30 nationalities - and yes, we offer Dutch classes too!

• HQ in Amsterdam where you’re able to work at least 2 days a week & full home office support to make sure you’re all set.

• Working from Bali, the US or Spain? Any place, anywhere: we fully support temporary working from X.

• At least €1000 per year on personal development budget.

• All the relocation benefits you need for a fresh start.
