Who we are:

PestScan creates and services software for the Pest control sector. Started in 2009, we really kicked off in 2014 and have grown very rapidly since in every way. We now service more than 400 companies in over 30 different countries on all continents, the most important ones being the Benelux, Germany, France, Scandinavia, and the UK.

The software is composed of an app that technicians use to register pest activity and incidences, a web-based admin portal for customer management, planning and invoicing and finally a customer portal for reporting to the end customer.

Our niche is the wonderful world of pest control. Currently, this world is in fast transition away from toxic extermination and toward prevention of pests (IPM) and if they occur, controlling them in an animal friendly and ecological way. PestScan offers exactly those services needed to facilitate this transition.

Your assignment:
  • Extend functionality of our current mobile app (HTML, jQuery Mobile with .NET 6.0 services)
  • Develop new app for different user group. A new, modern platform can be chosen, such as Xamarin, React or Angular. Depending on your skills we may decide for the one or the other
We started developing our app “PestScan pest control” in 2014 and since then, it has grown into one of the most popular apps in our field of business. At various moments, we have upgraded the tools and platforms so as to use the most current technologies. The app runs on iOS and Android phones and tablets as well as rugged industry devices (handheld scanners). Interesting features are barcode scanning, adding photos to records and drawing on the photos, interactive floorplan management, signature grabbing. The app communicates with our back end through .NET 6 services with a SQL database. The back end is installed on our server in a data center and on some customer servers. We are about to totally update the user interface design so as to attract more attention from new prospects. Your job will also be to start developing a brand-new app using a modern technology. A new, modern platform can be chosen, such as Xamarin. Get in touch for details, we don’t want to publish our strategic secrets here! We use Git to create work items for you in iterations. The process is managed by a product owner. We are working towards continuous delivery, automated testing and Azure hosting, but honestly, we still need to take some steps here. You could help us to speed up this transition. We have one weekly stand-up and a biweekly retrospective meeting.

Very skilled Frontend Developer

  • Reeuwijk, Zuid Holland
  • Fulltime (0,8-1,0 fte)
  • Attractive salary
  • English and Dutch
Who we are:
PestScan creates and services software for the Pest control sector. Started in 2009, we really kicked off in 2014 and have grown very rapidly since in every way. We now service almost 400 companies in over 30 different countries on all continents, the most important ones being the Benelux, Germany, France, Scandinavia, and the UK.

PestScan offers exactly those services needed to facilitate this transition.
Your assignment:
Our software has been expanding in functionality since its conception and we have now come to the point where it requires a redesign, both visually and technically. In order to start this project, we wish to complete our team with a confident front-end developer who can take care of the project of a new web-based application. The project: What has not been decided yet is anything regarding the makeup of the new web-based application, other than that it will talk with a http service in order to access and mutate data. But we are happy to let you take the lead regarding the choose of the framework that will be used. Currently the functionalities we provide to our customers work well, they do what they need to do. However, in certain areas they lack intuitive user interaction or require many clicks to get something done. Since we are going to redo everything (module by module), it is a good opportunity to redesign the user experience. The abstract workflow with the product owner will be similar to his: a functional change request is made, and you take your time to design a mock-up page as a proposal to resolve the change request. The product owner either approves or opens a discussion until satisfied, then actual development starts based on functional change and design. In this process, your design and subsequent new communicated needs will result in requirements for the services that you use to communicate with the back end.
Skills:
Creativity – no tunnel vision, you look beyond the obvious User experience – you have great feeling how application users prefer to interact with software
Technologies:
Required:
  • Experience with a front-end framework
  • Comfortable working in an agile team (we currently use scrum through Azure DevOps)
Bonus:
  • Experience with multiple front-end frameworks
Expected skills:
  • CSS3 & HTML5
  • JavaScript
Nice to have skills: (so you can look and read beyond your project boundary)
  • C#
  • SQL
We offer:
  • Attractive salary
  • Varied work, never a dull moment
  • Quiet environment where you can easily concentrate
  • Very exciting niche sector
  • Pleasant, feels-like-home company atmosphere
  • Contract for 0,8-1,0 fte
  • Pension fee 10% on top of gross salary
  • Travelling compensation
  • Possibly trips abroad
