Hello, we are VI Company. A FinTech scaleup where we conceptualize and build web apps and software. From the ground up. And for leading clients in the financial domain. Think banks, asset managers, and pension funds.

We are 6 experienced frontend developers, and offer a space in which you can learn from your mistakes and find out which areas of expertise you excel in. So, are you ready to unlock your Developer Mode and become a full-fledged frontend developer?
How you serve the best code as Frontend Developer
- You shape and develop FinTech web apps for large financial clients, used by millions of consumers worldwide.
- You (breathe in) program, test, and implement impactful HTML, CSS, and Javascript code (breathe out).
- You team up with back-enders and designers to champion the same end-user, and work towards a shared goal: highly available and fast-performing web apps and software.
- You join a scale-up of 45 colleagues (of which 25 developers) and together we directly contribute to our mission to simplify and future-proof financial markets.
From day #1 you join a multidisciplinary Agile team, with great team cohesion and clear deliverables. Our projects are complex, so we stay up-to-date with the latest developments and trends in frontend world via courses, training, and conferences - that you will join as well!
Our favorite tech stack includes technologies such as (vanilla) Javascript, HTML, and CSS, but we are also keen on using Vue.js, and Node.
A day as Frontend Developer @ VI Company
- Kickstart the day with a daily scrum and continue programming on a mission-critical website of a large bank, used to manage their assets.
- For lunch, you join our catered lunch and maybe play some Mario Kart. Hopefully, you can handle an increased heart rate of 100+ BPM due to a blue/red shell closing in when you are #1 (because we can't).
- Let's do some pair programming afterwards to calm down and end the day on a light note by meeting with your fellow frontend colleagues to discuss challenges, ideas, and demo new JS/CSS features.
So.... Now that you’ve come this far, it seems something about this role is of interest to you, right? Let's go to the fun part: why choose VI Company?

- You are not afraid to take ownership, ask questions, and touch base with colleagues or clients about features that need to be made.
