We are looking for people who can translate their passion for great software into concrete value for clients. Innovators to truly help us to revolutionize software development in Italy.

– Strong communication and client-facing skills with the ability to work in a consulting environment is essential

What we offer:
Our approach to software development is a fast, evolutionary, liberating experience – project managers, developers, testers and analysts work collaboratively with clients to deliver immediate and visible results. While we’re looking for strong skills in our core languages, what’s equally important is your intellectual curiosity and appetite for solving problems. You’ll be working closely with technology leaders and software luminaries. And you’ll share our fascination with design patterns, refactoring, continuous integration, TDD and Agile.

As a Senior or Lead developer at ThoughtWorks, here’s what you’ll get to do
– Learn something new, everyday

– Champion agile best practices and Continuous Delivery
– Help the team to champion software excellence, craft technical vision and ensure we deliver value to our clients and their customers.
– Work on interesting challenges and see them through
– Work in a dynamic, collaborative, transparent, non-hierarchical, and ego-free culture where your talent, ideas and opinions are valued
– Craft your own career path – without the confinement of a one-size-fits-all plan
– Help to grow the next generation of developers and have a positive impact on the industry, and beyond

We don’t do bureaucracy or hierarchy so you will have complete autonomy. We will also encourage you to experiment with new technologies without limits. We’re a big believer in diversity. We build software for a wide variety of people so we believe that a wide variety of people should build our software. We abhor and reject discrimination and inequality, and promote diversity in all its forms. We strive to make both ThoughtWorks and our industry more reflective and inclusive of the society that we serve, so as long as you’re a talented developer ready to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
