Senior Software Developer - Tampere


Join Columbia Road as a Senior Software Consultant! Make an impact crafting seamless customer journeys and solving complex challenges directly with clients. Enjoy autonomy, growth opportunities, and variety in technology whilst being supported by a great community. We look forward to hearing from you, future Roadie!

Who we are
Columbia Road builds seamless and commercially effective customer journeys that create impact. We help our clients get more revenue and more customers, but also to sell better. We are proud of the high customer satisfaction we have achieved as a result of focusing on people and creating concrete, measurable business impact for our clients every day.
Our team consists of technology specialists with a knack for business as well as design and marketing technology consultants who understand software. We believe that technology is a tool that we need to master, but the actual business impact of the service is the first thing we want to understand and select proper tooling after that.
As a community-led company, we believe in giving a lot of responsibility and freedom to our employees. Instead of line managers and red tape, we offer the tools and resources to all Roadies to make the best possible decisions for their own job and for our community. We offer you a diverse and inclusive workplace, and our extensive onboarding and your fellow Roadies will ensure that you’ll feel comfortable from day one.

The job & what you’d be working on
As a senior software consultant at Columbia Road, you will be working in a high-impact role at the core of our clients’ businesses:

✅ You'll be a trusted advisor to important stakeholders, helping our clients create better and smarter business through software
✅ As a hands-on consultant, you’ll design and implement the tech needed to drive business results forward. This means you’ll code, build storefronts, and work with APIs and integrations.
✅ You're technology agnostic, choosing the tools based on the problem at hand. Your contribution will have a significant effect on the client’s success.
✅ You'll often work in multidisciplinary teams with other Roadies and client stakeholders. As a senior software consultant, you can expect to have a responsible role in the technical choices and implementation of the project.
✅ Depending on your interest, you can contribute to and develop the community via eg. mentoring, recruitment, DEIB work or competence development. You’ll also have opportunities to collaborate with our business and sales functions to draft sales proposals and spot new opportunities in the market.

Columbia Road’s focus on digital sales means that we tackle a large variety of projects ranging from ecommerce platforms and data platform projects to site optimisation and mobile development. To mention a few:
  • We help Elisa run modern online sales in a fully integrated team
  • We’re working with Posti on a scalable ecommerce platform.
  • We’re crafting a customer portal for Qt’s global customer base

Our ways of working
We encourage our client teams to choose the tools and methods that suit them best. For us, technology is a tool to solve business problems and therefore, the tools can vary a lot between projects. Even as your focus is likely on some part of the stack (frontend, backend, integrations or other), we value people who aren’t too afraid to get their hands dirty with the other areas when necessary.
All of our consultants work directly with client stakeholders. While development is probably where most of your time goes, we are in the business of creating impact for our clients, and that means spending some time to understand how the business functions. Read more about how we code and design high performing digital sales channels here.
When it comes to working location, we are flexible to meet our clients’ needs. We hope that you can commit to spending at least a few days a week at our client’s premises. Continuous learning is one of our core values and you will be offered various learning opportunities like internal training and meetups to expand your skills.

Professional benefits for you
  • ️ A high-impact role as a trusted advisor: experience accelerated professional growth by creating tangible results for our clients
  • ️ Working directly with the client, no middle management involved: enjoy autonomy, responsibility and ownership of your work
  • ️ Work with the most talented people in the industry: learn from great people in a truly flat organisation
  • ️ A technology agnostic and business-driven approach: gain experience from many different technologies by solving complex business challenges
  • ️ Opportunity to participate in account management and framing our sales offering, should you be interested
  • ️ Opportunities to participate in e.g., recruitment, competency development, or DEIB work depending on your career goals
Requirements
To succeed, you'll need:
➡️ Broad experience in building web services
➡️ Understanding of the entire web development process (design, development, deployment, operations)
➡️ Familiarity with both front and backend development. You may specialise in either area, but you aren’t afraid to jump in at any point.
➡️ Languages familiar to you could include e.g. Java Script (and frameworks such as React, Angular, or Vue.js), Scala, Go, Python, Java, or PHP.
➡️ Great communication skills, analytical mindset and problem-solving skills
➡️ Past experience in consulting or digital commerce is very valuable but not necessary

Recruitment process
Our recruitment process typically involves 2-3 interviews where we learn about your skills and what motivates you. You'll discover more about Columbia Road and meet various Roadies along the way. After our discussions, we'll reach out to your chosen references. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Benefits
The compensation for this role ranges between 4555 - 7590€/month depending on your professional skill set and level of seniority.
    • A community-led organisation with a high level of autonomy
    • Option to buy stocks of the company through the common employee share program
    • A yearly bonus based on company performance (equal to all full-time Roadies)
    • Recurring training and learning sessions to support your professional growth
    • Offices in downtown Helsinki (with gym and pool) and Tampere
    • A wide selection of quality tools to use for your work (laptop, phone etc.)
    • Extensive health care services, including dental and mental health
    • Insurance for travel and free-time
    • Lunch benefit
    • Phone subscription benefit
    • Weekly breakfasts and healthy daily refreshments
    • Flexible sports, culture, commuting and massage benefit
    • Option to have a bicycle salary alternative as a part of total compensation
    • Recurring Roadie-ideated events and activities
    • Childcare services when your child falls ill
    • A possibility to book the office for private events during the weekends
    • Compensation for working on open source or social programs in your free time

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the heart of our essence and everyone at Columbia Road is committed to these values. Currently, we have over 20 nationalities working in the company and we come recommended 4,7/5 on Glassdoor. Visit our culture page to get to know us better.
