About the Role
We're looking for a Software Developer to join Thales DIS and own the design and implementation of solutions for our teams and global customer base. You'll work across multi-layered web and standalone applications — bridging low-level systems expertise (C++, STL, USIM architecture) with modern full-stack development — while championing clean, pattern-driven code that the whole team can build on.
What You'll Do
- Build and ship quality software components in an agile environment, from user story refinement through production release.
- Translate complex requirements into well-architected solutions aligned with S.O.L.I.D. principles and established design patterns.
- Create proof-of-concepts to explore new technologies and validate architectural decisions early.
- Share technical expertise with peers and serve as a bridge between engineering, stakeholders and management.
- Lead and facilitate technical discussions, keeping the full SDLC lifecycle in view: requirements → design → implementation → testing → release.
Core Engineering Foundations
🔷 Object-Oriented Design — S.O.L.I.D. principles, Design Thinking, and Gang-of-Four patterns applied in real systems.
🔷 Algorithms & Data Structures — strong fundamentals driving performance-aware, maintainable implementations.
🔷 C / C++ & STL — expertise in Standard Template Library, memory management and performance-critical code.
🔷 C# & Java literacy — fluent across OO languages; able to apply patterns consistently regardless of runtime.
What We're Looking For
- Degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Mathematics or equivalent practical Experience.
- 2+ years of hands-on development experience — academic projects count, as long as you built it yourself: full-stack apps, algorithms implementations, personal tools, or open-source contributions. We care about what you've shipped, not where.
- Solid algorithmic thinking and ability to choose the right data structures for the job.
- Comfortable with the complete SDLC: analysis, architecture, implementation, code review, testing and release.
- Fluent in Spanish & English (B2 or better).
If you're early in your career but have a GitHub, a portfolio, or a project you're genuinely proud of — we want to hear from you.
