Functie

As a Frontend Developer in our innovative team you strive with us to remove the frustration and uncertainty out of the analysis of complex datasets. We firmly believe that data analysis processes should be (more) centered around the person who does the analysis or makes the business decisions. A human-centered approach will inevitably lead to more, better, and more sustainable innovations in business and societal settings. The aim of our GraphPolaris project is to bring about game-changing developments in this field.

In GraphPolaris, we combine the creativity and common knowledge of the human with the number-crunching capabilities of the machine and make insights visible, explainable, and auditable through visual interactive interfaces. Our main product, the Graph Database Explorer, is the logical first manifestation of this credo: We are building a visual graph analytics system that focuses on easy, explainable, and efficient access to (multivariate) graph databases with better visualization support and a ready-to-use graph ML toolbox.

In this position you have a varied range of responsibilities, such as:

  • design, develop, and test UI components and interactive visualizations for mobile and web applications;

  • design and build reusable code and libraries for future use;

  • creatively develop novel ideas with us to expand the graph data analysis platform GraphPolaris.


Profiel

We would like you to meet the following criteria. You have:

  • demonstrable experience in frontend development. You have at least two years experience with React, Redux, MUI;

  • demonstrable experience in building web applications in JavaScript and Typescript, HTML5, and CSS3;

  • familiarity with UI/UX design concepts, CI/CD, Git, testing experience;

  • familiarity using Scrum/Agile development methodologies.

One requirement is absolutely paramount for us: we are looking for someone who breathes our vision and understands its impact!


Aanbod

  • This position is a fixed-term contract for 1 year; 

  • a full-time gross salary ranging from € 2,960 to € 3,557 (scale 10.0 -10.4);

  • 8% holiday bonus and 8.3% end-of-year bonus;

  • a pension scheme, partially paid parental leave, and flexible employment conditions based on the Collective Labour Agreement Dutch Universities.

In addition to the employment conditions from the CAO for Dutch Universities, Utrecht University has a number of its own arrangements. These include agreements on professional development, leave arrangements and sports. We also give you the opportunity to expand your terms of employment through the Employment Conditions Selection Model. This is how we encourage you to grow.

At Utrecht University, the various disciplines collaborate intensively towards major strategic themes. Our focus is on Dynamics of Youth, Institutions for Open Societies, Life Sciences and Sustainability.

At the Faculty of Science, there are 6 departments to make a fundamental connection with: Biology, Chemistry, Information and Computing Sciences, Mathematics, Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Physics. Each of these is made up of distinct institutes that work together to focus on answering some of humanity’s most pressing problems. More fundamental still are the individual research groups – the building blocks of our ambitious scientific projects. Find out more about the Faculty of Science.

You will be embedded in the Department of Information and Computing Sciences. The department is nationally and internationally known for its research in computer science and information science. The department provides and contributes to the undergraduate programs in Computer Science, Information Science, and Artificial Intelligence and a number of research master's programs in these fields. It employs over 200 people, soon to be divided into four divisions: Interaction, Algorithms, Data Science & Artificial Intelligence, and Software Systems. The atmosphere is collegial and informal.

During the project duration, you will be located on-premise at the Utrecht University campus (Utrecht Science Park) and work closely in our team of researchers at the Visualization and Graphics group. This position is funded by the NWO Demonstrator grant and receives full support from the university as a Utrecht University spin-off.
