Company mission
To make work for event service providers easier and more productive.
Role
Who you are
- 3 years of experience as a senior in a "product-led" development team/SaaS company
- Proven experience in contributing to a user-friendly solution
- Proven experience dealing with complex business rules and data models
- Proven accountability for feature development solution & success
- Positive mindset towards using AI in the development toolchain (The development landscape is changing rapidly, and at Rentman, we’re open to exploring how this can benefit us in our day-to-day work)
- For us, having Angular experience is a nice-to-have
- At Rentman, we believe that every good developer understands that a framework is a tool to help achieve results and that you can always learn a new framework if you have strong fundamentals
What the job involves
- Build scalable, high-performance UIs with Angular and TypeScript for a real-time SaaS platform used by event pros in 70+ countries. Lead with clean code, mentoring, and impact
- We strive to have all development teams self-sufficient and self-structured
- A perfect development team consists of 2 frontend developers, 2 backend developers, a product owner, a QA engineer and a designer
- While every team is free to set their own structure and goals, currently all teams work in a traditional scrum way
- 2 week sprints, with a retro to end the sprint
- Customer understanding is important at Rentman, so we facilitate visiting warehouses, interacting with customers at our “Rentman live” events, and joining various trade shows to hear first-hand from our customers how they experience our software
- Our tech stack in a nutshell
- Our front-end is an Angular based SPA with over 3500 components
- It is based on a custom-made design system, and the main data-views are powered by AG-Grid
- We strive to stay up-to-date with all latest developments, and we usually migrate to the latest Angular versions within 2 weeks of a new release
- We smartly process thousands of item records in the front-end caching layer, and actively keep client states in sync through a custom made websocket structure
- Our back-end is a custom-made PHP framework, with a queryable API interface similar to GraphQL (but we built ours before GraphQL existed )
- We take development-at-scale very seriously, and have fully typed our frontend, and even have a custom-made php-to-typescript system so that our frontend-to-backend communication is also properly typed
Application process
- Here's a breakdown of our recruitment process to give you a clear idea of what to expect:
- Call with a recruiter, an introduction to Rentman & the process (30 mins)
- Interview about Past Experience & Culture
- A case
- Final interview
Our take
Events are a major part of any industry, and require a lot of logistics and organisation. Rentman has capitalised on the necessity and difficulty of events by building a software platform that supports the events and media production industry in managing their people and equipment.
Event management and production teams can use Rentman's cloud-based software to manage gear and crew, all from one central base of operations, with features including scheduling, invoicing, reporting and tracking. Thus, the many moving parts of an event are centralised and streamlined - whether for a corporate live streaming broadcast or a wedding.
Rentman’s 250,000-strong user base has spread to over 100 countries, evidencing the company’s savvy and vital niche in the event software market. A spinout from Utrecht University, the company remained bootstrapped until 2023, when it raised an impressive funding round that will enable it to grow through acquisitions and give it the runway to develop more products.
