ABOUT US

Factry develops software solutions to help our customers get insights in their industrial processes. And we’re one of a kind, because we know our way around industrial systems while also having a lot of expertise with advanced technologies from the web- and IoT-space. Every day, we build open software for use in an industrial context. We’ve been international since day 1: while based in Ghent, Belgium, we maintain Factry software all over the world! And we’re good at it, too: our clients love our work. We wouldn’t settle for less.

THE FUNCTION

We are looking for you to join our motivated team of engineers. Your main focus will be to develop new functionality on top of Factry Historian and other Factry products, especially related to UI/UX. You will:

• Improve the UI of our product, focussing on the UX experience for our end-users.
• Perform code reviews and give more complete & valuable feedback on merge requests to colleagues, based on Coding Guidelines of Factry.
• Participate in expanding the Factry Coding Guidelines, specifically (but not exclusively) aimed at guidelines regarding UI/UX.
• Critically perform QA testing of User Stories during the development cycle, from the perspective of the end-user, using its acceptance criteria as a main guideline.
• Troubleshooting and debugging code to resolve daily issues and improve performance.
• Actively collaborate in code refactoring to improve the software experience, maintainability and performance.
