Smalltalk Jobs – 09/26/17

Two jobs in Europe:

  1. In Le Mans France, CGI is looking for an OO developer, ideally Smalltalk.   CGI is a French IT services company and works in lots of different domains.  One clearly needs to be able to work in France, and, most likely in French as well.
  2. The second is in Kaiserslautern Germany with Bison.  Bison is a Swiss and German IT services company similar in many ways to CGI above.

Good Luck!

Infrastructure Developer, Glasgow, UK

This position, like my previous post, is at Kapital’s Glasgow site, this time working on maintaining and improving the engine infrastructure rather than on specific tasks for the end users. Kapital’s meta-data framework is implemented in VisualWorks and Gemstone. This role may also have to deal with the Unix architecture beneath, and occasionally with Java and Python. The job-ads admirably frank sentence “The candidate must be able to work independently, with minimal managerial oversight, in an environment where creativity and innovation is not facilitated and yet is expected.” could be written of many another site.  At least this one facilitates creativity by letting you use Smalltalk. 🙂

Test Engineer/Developer, Glasgow, UK

The Kapital team in Glasgow are recruiting. Kapital prices complex financial products for JPMorganChase. It is written in VisualWorks and Gemstone, and runs on Unix servers. They would welcome knowledge of Smalltalk and Unix, some banking or finance experience, and a honours degree in a STEM subject, but the essentials are OO coding and debugging experience, willingness to learn, adaptability and sufficient people skills.
