Who We Are Seeking
Advantage Group International is seeking a hands-on Software Developer to join our lean, highly collaborative Digital team. If you view software engineering as a craft and enjoy solving complex problems across the entire stack—from database to front-end—you’ll fit right in. 

We’re a product-focused organization that values agility, pragmatism, and continuous improvement. Our team builds and enhances the client-facing and internal applications that power our global business. 
We’re looking for a versatile full-stack developer with 4+ years of experience and a strong record of delivering high-quality production systems. You should be equally comfortable architecting backend services, building clean web interfaces, optimizing database queries, and mentoring teammates. 
You’ll thrive with us if you prefer small teams, direct communication, hands-on development, and a pragmatic approach to modern tools and practices. 
In other words, we need someone who:
  • Has 4+ years of experience developing software, with a track record of successful production deployments and a portfolio that showcases their dedication to the craft of software engineering. 
  • Is a developer who can work with our full stack (Python/Django, and Vue/Nuxt), who has at least 4 years of Python and JavaScript experience (particularly in web application development or data engineering contexts), and is also excited about exploring other emerging tools. 
  • Possesses the technical skills to work with all aspects of the application: UI, web services, databases, CI/CD, and automated testing tools, with a focus on quality and maintainability. 
  • Has hands-on experience with AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, GeminiCLI, etc.) and is excited about exploring other emerging tools. 
  • Thrives in a small, multi-disciplinary, agile team environment, valuing collaboration and direct communication over rigid processes. 
  • Is passionate about software craftsmanship and assisting us in growing our development methodology, focusing on lean and effective practices. 
Your Day-to-Day
Currently – in production – a variety of internal applications and external systems are used to create surveys, analyse responses, and report the results. We are maintaining current production systems and enhancing their functionality and performance. Your responsibilities will involve: 
  • Work as an integral part of an agile team to design, implement, and iterate on solutions for new features, and help resolve complex problems with a pragmatic approach. 
  • Work not only with full-stack applications (Python/Django/FastAPI, Vue/Nuxt), but also enhance reports and surveys with custom scripts and extensions. 
  • Collaborate with third-party vendors to ensure they provide functional and stable solutions that are well-coded and meet technical and business requirements. 
  • Perform application configuration and deployment; actively contribute to improving our CI/CD infrastructure and processes. 
Your Skill Set
You should have hands-on experience with most of the following, demonstrating a practical, craftsman-like approach: 
  • Python: At least 3 years of professional experience using Python for application development (e.g., with frameworks like Django), scripting, or data engineering. 
  • Frontend:Typical UI libraries/frameworks such as Vue, React, and utility-first CSS frameworks like Tailwind CSS. 
  • Databases: Analyzing and querying relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL). 
  • DevOps & Tools: Linux, common development tools such as Maven, Git, Jenkins (or similar CI/CD tools). 
  • Methodologies: Proven experience working effectively within an Agile (e.g., Scrum, Kanban) development methodology, focusing on iterative delivery and continuous feedback. 
You should understand:
  • Software development processes and methodologies, particularly those that emphasize agility and lean principles. 
  • How the internet works (HTTP, REST APIs, etc.). 
  • Software and Internet security best practices, privacy considerations (e.g., GDPR). 
Your Characteristics
You must have: 
  • Fantastic written and verbal communication skills, and strong organizational skills. 
  • The discipline and self-motivation to be highly productive in an agile, and at times, less structured environment. 
  • A strong willingness to learn and work with tools and technologies that are outside the traditional stack, driven by a curiosity to find the best solution. 
  • A pragmatic and adaptable mindset, preferring effective solutions over adherence to rigid, enterprise-style processes. 
You must be:
  • A creative thinker: able to come up with novel solutions to established problems and evaluate their business benefit. 
  • Business-savvy: able to interact effectively with both business specifications and technical requirements. 
  • Detail-oriented: paying close attention and noticing minor details that contribute to quality. 
  • A problem-solver at heart, who sees software engineering as a craft to be honed.
