Java Developers with an affinity for front-ends
                                                   
The position
As a front-end Java developer at Virgil, you will primarily write code for user interfaces and UI components. Some of your work will be for Virgil’s own product portfolio, and some of it will involve customizations for specific clients. In our front-ends, we primarily use Java and JSP, mostly in a WebSphere Portal environment, although we occasionally also work with Servlets. We might ask you to write specifications, designs, test plans and documentation and assist in dealing with support requests from customers. Most of the work will take place at the Virgil office in Amsterdam, but for some tasks (especially support requests), it may be necessary to visit Virgil customers on location.

The requirements
We expect all our developers to:

  1. Perform at an academic level
  2. Be a team player
  3. Have a professional attitude and some feeling for the commercial aspects of the job
  4. Possess written as well as oral proficiency in the English language

Specifically for this position, we want you to:

  1. Be an excellent Java developer
  2. Have a strong affinity with front-end development

Additional qualifications
  • While not direct requirements, it would be considered an advantage if you also have:

  1. Experience with IBM’s WebSphere Portal, Microsoft Office SharePoint Server or JSR168
  2. Experience with JavaScript / DHTML / Ajax / Comet development
  3. Affinity with the financial services industry
