Description

Mendix is on a mission to enable anyone in any organization – from the marketing coordinator to the software developer to the CEO – to create things that are transformational for their company. We are fundamentally reinventing the way applications are created and we’re reinventing the future of software development. Sounds ambitious, right? We agree.

Not to brag, but nearly 4,000 organizations worldwide, including KLM, Medtronic, Merck, and Philips, rely on Mendix to build web and mobile applications. Thousands of our customers use our platform to delight their clients and empower their employees. It’s no surprise that we’re a recognized Leader by Gartner and Forrester in a red-hot market expected to exceed $21 billion by 2022. Ok, maybe we did want to brag a little. But we’re proud of what we’ve accomplished…and…we’re humble enough to admit that we need you to make us even more effective.

Our team is responsible for creating great looking and easy to use widgets thats make it simple for our users to build great interfaces. We use modern tooling and frameworks to continuously roll out new widgets and features making the life of our users and the end-users better. Basically, we want to make things simple, while at the same time powerful and beautiful, and we do it at speed.

The team is part of the Frontend group. This group currently consists of six teams and together we are responsible for building great end-user experiences from design time to runtime for web, mobile and augmented reality.
