C++ Developer & Javascript Developer & Node.js Developer & Python Developer

The candidate is a senior developer whose main domain is C++, which he has been doing commercially for about 6 years. On his current project he is using C++ 17 for a PV simulator, where he is also doing some quick Python scripting. For the last 2 years he has also been working with Typescript in combination with Node.js, as the bindings that are tied to the simulations are written in Typescript and Node. In terms of database technologies, in his current position he uses Custom Database, but he also has experience with PostgreSQL, MySQL and MS SQL. He has also worked with C# and PHP in the past. He actively uses agile methodologies in his work, especially Scrum. He is able to communicate in English without any problems and would be able to use German in his work communication, which he wants to be more active in. In his current position, he has a notice period of 2 months.
