Reasons to Join

Julius, Software Developer

I started working with Sollers as a Software Developer in May 2020 and I am currently working as a React Developer for a project in Japan. I experienced a variety of projects with different technologies, and tools, that helped me grow as a developer. Since I joined I felt that the people I worked with always had my back, they always shared, taught, and helped me during the process and contributed a lot to my progress to be not only a better developer but also a better person.

I also liked that our office in Japan is really international with a mix of people from different backgrounds, which gave a different perspective on how people tackle problems.

Anna, Software Developer

In my current role as a Developer, I am part of the team that drives the development of Salesforce competence. The collaborative environment within my team is something I sincerely appreciate. Mistakes are not roadblocks but stepping stones to improvement, and achieving goals together brings unparalleled satisfaction. Since joining the company, learning from experienced colleagues has been crucial to my personal and professional growth.

I find great satisfaction in striking the right balance between work and personal life. Sollers and its flexible approach makes it easy to do so. In summary, my journey as a Developer at Sollers has been marked by teamwork, continuous learning, and a commitment to maintaining a healthy work-life balance. I am grateful for the opportunities presented, and I look forward to contributing further to the success of our team.

Dorian, Software Developer

At Sollers, I have had the privilege of working on a major project for one of the UK's largest insurance companies. To me, Sollers has been more than just a place to work, it has been a place of growth and learning. From the moment I walked through the doors in 2015, I was greeted with a culture of genuine camaraderie. It's heartening to work with colleagues from diverse backgrounds and six different countries, all sharing a common goal and passion for excellence. This sense of togetherness and collaboration is not only encouraged, it is deeply embedded in our company's DNA.

Sollers has also played a pivotal role in shaping my career path by providing many opportunities for growth. Whether it's through exposure to international projects or the provision of an individual training budget that allows me to attend IT conferences and workshops of my choice, Sollers consistently invests in the development of its employees.
