We are looking for motivated software professionals for Engineering Coach positions. The challenges you will face include support of various software specification, developing, maintaining and testing processes.

We have a variety of opened positions for candidates with wide range of work experience – from fresh graduates to highly experienced professionals. You have to remember that the more experienced you are, the greater opportunities you have.

Imagine, that you join project teams periodically. Actually, you jump into the ongoing work. You start gently building an atmosphere of trust, so it's easier to propose pairing, common code review sessions or anything else. After a while you work together on current tasks. That gives you a great opportunity to share your practices and techniques. When your time comes you move to the new team.

Different teams need different practices. Sometimes more related to the UI building and another time to the modular design. During your stay, you observe how the team is doing to find the best way to help. And you share your observations with the team, Product Owner, Team Leader, Scrum Master, Head of department, coaches network, so all they can use the information for growth.

We know that being an expert takes time and our coaches network is ready to give you all support you need. We see this role very individual with great space for innovation and there is yet much more in it waiting for you to discover. This is the model skill set we think of.
